đź§µMissed diagnoses, delayed treatment and poor medical care are driving record deaths in ICE custody.

@kolyncheang.bsky.social and I spent months investigating the deaths of ICE detainees across the US. Over and over again, we found lapses in treatment that proved fatal.

I (and many other cis het white guys without a firsthand stake, likely) don't know what to say on Trans Day of Visibility that doesn't sound trite and patronizing.

But here goes -- I haven't and won't ignore that you all are being treated like subhumans, and that the fight is to simply exist.

these two laws touching Fast-Fish and Loose-Fish, I say, will, on reflection, be found the fundamentals of all human jurisprudence

Absolutely wild story that isn’t getting much attention (as far as I can tell) around the state: the largest city in the state is about to cut 30% of its service over only a $7.5 million shortfall

It would be madness to let this go over such a small number

✨Schrödinger’s Crosswalk ✨, joint work with a terrific interdisciplinary team, under submission to law reviews now. It’s a bit unconventional (6,600 words, including a table, plus maps) but, we hope, appealing for the right journal.

I learned today about an instance of the feds tying transportation funding explicitly to the jurisdiction signing a contract to allow ICE activities. Is anyone tracking all the places that is happening, and what projects? Maybe @alexkarner.bsky.social ?

Commentary: Because of the slashing of RIPTA’s service, affecting 45 out of its 63 lines, tens of thousands of Rhode Islanders have lost time, income, and the ability to access educational, civic, medical, commercial, and religious opportunities.
