#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three Democratic appointees, #SCOTUS grants a stay in the third-country removals case; clears way for Trump admin. to continue removing non-citizens without a full chance to litigate the conditions in those countries (while also taking up the full merits appeal).

Talking recently to family members of people snatched up and expelled to third countries by ICE, I learned: 1) All of those captured were in 287(g) jurisdictions; 2) None of the family members had known what 287(g) was and had erroneously thought people with no arrests were safe.

New Yorkers, here’s what you need to know about this week’s nor’easter: 

The storm is expected to pass offshore, keeping the heaviest rain east of New York City. But we should still prepare for gusty winds, rain, and some high-tide flooding beginning today, peaking Friday, and potentially continuing through Sunday.

If you live near the coast, move your car to higher ground or away from streets that regularly flood.

Secure loose outdoor items, including furniture and garbage containers, that could be picked up by strong winds.
Storm tracks can change, so please stay informed and be prepared.

For emergency alerts, text NOTIFYNYC to 692-692.

At some point c. 2021, capitalists realized that there were no natural economic laws nor any criminal laws stopping them from demanding every last dollar that working people have. It was just a social norm that let us. e.g. save for retirement, and they finally agreed to break it.

One of the big disconnects between the way dems talk about affordability and what will provide material improvements for working class folk is the focus on lowering prices, while doing nothing to increase wages. There are fewer and fewer economic opportunities for the working class.
