Delta reports near-miss at Mexico City International Airport mexiconewsdaily.com/travel/planes-…
AWFUL scenario. Border Patrol agents raided a car wash and arrested a DACA recipient working there. He has a REAL ID, but they didn't even let him show his ID, they just grabbed him and threw him in a van. He was then detained for a MONTH before getting bond.
This is a terrifying case. DHS did not recognize DACA as a protective status, & proceeded to arrest & detain Diaz. With the massive increase in enforcement that is about to start, are DACA recipients also enforcement targets? latimes.com/california/sto…
They keep telling us it’s all about removing violent criminals, and instead I keep seeing reports like this. opb.org/article/2025/0… ‘Daddy, police!’: New video shows masked ICE agents arrest father outside child’s school in Beaverton - OPB

So this Swiss woman -- who's studying for a master's in education and provides online language classes to students from around the world -- was brutally detained and deported, because CBP agents apparently thought it was a problem for her to drink coffee with some of her…

Huge protests erupt in Kyiv against Ukrainian President Zelensky as he is a dictator and refuses to make a peace deal and end the war. Good for the Ukrainian people! Throw him out of office! And America must STOP funding and sending weapons!!!

Fun fact: There were more protesters at a rally in support of the anti-corruption institutions today than on the first day of the Euromaidan back in 2013.
NEW: We uncovered multiple photos of Jeffrey Epstein at Donald Trump‘s wedding. Photos of the pair together earlier that year at an event. And video of Epstein and Trump at the 1999 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. cnn.com/2025/07/22/pol…
I raise Andre’s no details infill stations plan with a no detail plan to add two new rail lines including serving northwest Atlanta & “West Midtown” *in addition to* new infill stations.
@ajc reminds us this morning that pretending the departure of the MARTA boss was related to his immigration status was nonsense. Lying is another way to put it. The story also reminds us of the mayor’s fantasy about 4 new MARTA stations.
Glad to see this.
Enough is enough: the smoking on our public transit system has to stop. My administration is bringing the full-force of government to create a safe and smoke-free CTA.
The distinction matters! Best evidence we have suggests work requirements largely screen people out of coverage because they don't know about them — you can't comply with reporting requirements you don't know about — or don't adequately report their qualifying activity/exemption

The EU has strict rules for alcohol & flying: 0.02%. In the US, it’s 0.04% (driving is generally 0.08%). The rule is also no drinking within 8 hours of flying, but many airlines have expanded that to 12 (military, too). You’re subject to random blood & breathalyzer tests.
