If there's no remedy for an immigrant, then there is no remedy for a US citizen either.

I'll note that the Trump administration is using taxpayer dollars to keep people in this prison in El Salvador.

I had the impression that college deferment ended about a year before the draft did.

I don't expect college draft deferment to be a thing again until the boomers die.

This is the one that put up the stiffest resistance, in part because the guard on duty the first time DOGE showed up didn't have a key to the inner door.

It's not a direct impact; it's that the ad buys get the oil folks access in a way that you and I don't have. The journalists end up at things like conference panels with oil folks, and not so much with activists or scientists, and the editors choose who to put on a given story.

The NYT takes huge ad payments from the oil industry. Industry reps get regular access to reporters in non-news contexts as a result, and this spills over into the background beliefs and attitudes a lot of them have

They apparently know now — she was taken to an ICE facility in Loisiana in violation of a court order.
