JUST IN: A federal judge in California has barred DHS from conducting field interrogations of people they identify as potential noncitizen voters based on data sources that have proven unreliable and could improperly identify citizens. storage.courtlistener.com/re…

The Trump admin is asking a federal judge to agree to looser restrictions on standards at the ICE holding cells in Lower Manhattan.
The feds say they don't want to provide pillows (security risk), a light dimmer at night (unclear why), or 24/7 medical services (too expensive).

Detained immigrants with serious medical conditions were told they will be deported to African countries where they have no family or ties. Held at Krome detention center in Florida, they were told they were headed there this week, though not which country.miamiherald.com/news/nation-…

Mamdani's on the City Hall steps to call for the passage of @tiffany_caban's Delivery Protection Act.
It's a bit of an unusual dynamic, as Speaker Menin has yet to chime in on the bill. Mamdani hasn't done a lot of public pushing for Council legislation like this as mayor.

When asked to comment on my recent @NewYorker story, ICE said it doesn't use white SUVs in York, PA. That contradicts multiple witnesses I intervened (as well as photos I had access to). But a reader pointed me to this footage from the York Daily Record: ydr.com/videos/news/local/20…

Sent them an email yesterday with my co-professor. Still haven't heard back!
Hey @MTA any reason your press office has been treating student journalists like they're not real journalists? If your press team had time to send a condescending responses about how they don't deal with student journalists, surely, they could have just responded to the question.
Really important work by my fellow @FSP_NWU members and @ObjectiveJrn —>
