Trump on Oprah circa 1987 talking tarrifs Its wild how the left and Oprah loved Trump back in the day. Also wild how he hasn't really changed... Reminds me of how the left loved Elon. Now, the right is joke as well. They have no anchor either. Just fascinating to watch. originally posted at

First They Came for the Op-Ed Writers https://mises.org/mises-wire/first-they-came-op-ed-writers > On March 25, six masked federal agents seized a Turkish graduate student on the streets of Somerville, Massachusetts. Rumeysa Ozturk—who was wearing a hajib—is a Fulbright scholar working on a doctorate at Tufts University. > She was abducted and vanished into the maw of the federal prison system. The Trump administration ignored a federal court order and took Ozturk from Massachusetts to Louisiana federal detention facilities. > But the Trump administration knew Ozturk had criticized the government of Israel a year earlier, enough to seal her doom according to the latest iron-fisted political correctness dictates. She co-authored one piece for the Tufts student newspaper criticizing the university’s refusal to divest from Israel despite “credible accusations of…. indiscriminate slaughter of Palestinian civilians and plausible genocide.” > A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson justified the takedown: “DHS and ICE investigations found Ozturk engaged in activities in support of Hamas, a foreign terrorist organization that relishes the killing of Americans. Glorifying and supporting terrorists who kill Americans is grounds for visa issuance to be terminated.” Ozturk never mentioned Hamas in her op-ed. Ozturk has not been linked to any campus protests at Tufts or elsewhere. The feds have failed to reveal any evidence Ozturk supports Hamas. She simply co-wrote an opinion piece. As the New York Post noted on Friday, DHS “alleged that Ozturk was a supporter of Hamas but has yet to provide any evidence to that effect.” On Friday evening, federal judge Denise Casper blocked the Trump administration from deporting Ozturk and ordered the administration to respond by Tuesday to Ozturk’s legal challenge (now aided by the ACLU) to her detention. originally posted at

Newsom sends prepaid phones, aka ‘burners’, to tech CEOs https://www.politico.com/news/2025/03/18/newsom-ceos-burner-phones-00235044 [Unpaywalled](https://archive.is/fLsiQ) > Roughly 100 leaders of state-headquartered companies have received a curious package in recent months: a prepaid, inexpensive cell phone (commonly known as a burner, for those of you who haven’t seen “The Wire” or “Better Call Saul”), programmed with Newsom’s digits and accompanied by notes from the governor himself. > “If you ever need anything, I’m a phone call away,” read one note to a prominent tech firm’s CEO printed on official letterhead, along with a hand-scrawled addendum urging the executive to reach out. (We agreed to withhold the executive’s identity to protect our tipster.) > It was Newsom’s idea, a representative said, and has already yielded some “valuable interactions.” originally posted at
