Ice is cracking down on Trump’s own supporters. Will they change their minds? | Tayo Bero
As the president’s immigration policies take a toll on communities, some of his voters are shaken – but standing by himBy now, the cycle of Donald Trump supporters being slapped in the face by his policies is common enough that it shouldn’t warrant a response. What is noteworthy is the fact that his crusade of mass deportations seems to have taken the Maga crowd by surprise in a way that makes little sense if you’ve been paying attention to Trump, his campaign promises, his party and the people he surrounds himself with.Even as they witness friends and family members hurt by this administration’s immigration clampdowns, some Trump supporters appear resistant to doing a full 180.Tayo Bero is a Guardian US columnist Continue reading...
‘Embrace the cringe’: at National History Day, kids impress judges by digging up the past
Witch trials, Radio Free Europe and Green Day were all fair game for middle- and high-school competitors, who got their hands dirty for the sake of learning a full history – thorns and allIt only took 10 minutes for the trio of eighth-grade girls to recount the life story of Carol Ruckdeschel, the alligator-wrestling environmental activist sometimes called the “Jane Goodall of sea turtles”.Inside the student union at the University of Maryland, about a 20-minute drive from Washington DC, and armed with papier-mache reptiles, they embarked on a performance that included a litany of costume changes and a pony-tailed rendition of the late president Jimmy Carter, an ally of the 83-year-old Ruckdeschel’s work.

A US senator’s X posts after the Minnesota shootings were horrific – and predictable | Austin Sarat
Mike Lee knows better than to turn tragedy into disinformation. But outrageousness has become the name of the gameNational tragedy used to bring national unity. If only momentarily, partisanship was put aside, and people of all political persuasions came together.No more.

New York mayoral candidate arrested by Ice: ‘Trump is looking to stoke conflict, weaponize fear’
Brad Lander was manhandled and marched out of the courthouse after trying to shield a man from arrest – but, he tells the Guardian, he’s not backing downAs the New York city comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander was hauled away by masked Ice agents on Tuesday, all he could think about was whether there was anything more he could do for the man he was trying to help, an immigrant New Yorker named Edgardo.Both men ended up detained, but unlike Edgardo’s, Lander’s ordeal was over after a few hours. By the time the New York governor, Katy Hochul, marched him out of the courthouse – after proclaiming, of his arrest: “This is bullshit” – videos and photos of the officers manhandling him had gone viral. The arrest of yet another elected official prompted widespread condemnation of another sign of the US’s steady slide into authoritarianism. A host of New York politicians, along with a swelling crowd of angry New Yorkers, awaited Lander outside the courthouse in downtown Manhattan. (Andrew Cuomo, the former governor and mayoral race frontrunner, was a notable absence, though he did condemn the arrest.) Continue reading...
