Sorry @washingtonpost , but this headline is misleading. Seeking asylum is a right. Those who do so aren’t “illegal.”

@RogueChieftan Here’s another thing: faculty themselves, even tenured ones, still have to ask for letters from those further up the food chain! When I write letters for my students or younger colleagues, it’s paying forward all those who have written (and continue to write) for me.

@PanchoEstrada Esperemos que sí! Tengo todo el manuscrito traducido y listo, para quien lo quiera publicar! Me topé con varios obstáculos (editoriales que dijeron que sí y luego que no) pero al final la culpa es mía porque le necesito dedicar al asunto el tiempo que requiere.

This is precisely how new DNA testing at the border will be used: to generate isolated instances of negative test results to declare all parents “child traffickers.” Journalists, beware.

This article picked up by @USAtoday cites literally ONE example, of this happening to draw a conclusion + paint it as an epidemic. Another example of the misinformation campaign being waged against immigrants. So important to read beyond the headlines

Whatever happens, huge shout out to the grassroots activists who have worked so damn hard. Anything good that happens in this country is thanks to those thousands of doors you knocked. Grateful.

Hear that? It’s the sound of champagne corks as @CoreCivic and @GEOnewsroom , the private prison contractors that run family detention centers, celebrate their great good fortune. It seems the GOP is proposing to replace baby cages with more baby jails

@nytimes 3/ It appears that the GOP “solution” to family crisis would quadruple down on family detention. Ron Johnson told the @nytimes “We would probably need to build more, identify more detention facilities, certify them so we can keep the families together.”
