  n the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder, the phrase “Black Lives Matter” commenced to show up everywhere: on front lawns and back bumpers, on NBA players’ warm-up shirts in the course of pregame shoot-arounds, on gamers’ title displays when they fired up “FIFA 20,” on the tongues of longtime activists, college coaches, Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah). On the chests of Black people declaring their humanity and White people professing their allyship. After former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of Floyd’s murder, Lisa Granade, a 40-year-old White woman, finally got around to placing up a signal on her property, in an overwhelmingly White Seattle neighborhood. Granade selected a black flag with a rainbow-colored fist clenched in solidarity, hanging it on a street-facing fence alongside banners assisting LGBTQ rights and opposing gun violence. And that’s how she ended up standing in the front of her residence getting yelled at and called a “racist” through another W...

After A Court Ruling, The White House Reaches An Agreement To Reinstate Trump's 'Remain In Mexico' Asylum Policy.

Angel

The Biden administration stated on Thursday that it has reached an agreement with the Mexican government to restore a Trump-era border policy that requires asylum seekers to remain in Mexico until their immigration court hearing in the United States. According to NBC News, the program will begin on Monday at one border crossing and will eventually expand to seven crossings, including San Diego and the Texas cities of Laredo, El Paso, and Brownsville. Former President Donald Trump originally established the policy in 2019 in response to an uptick in Central American families crossing the southwest border. According to the American Immigration Council, some 70,000 migrants have been returned to Mexico as a result of the program since 2019. President Joe Biden suspended the policy on his first day in office, citing violence against migrants waiting for court hearings in Mexico, and it was formally ended in June. In April, however, the Republican-controlled states of Texas and Missouri sue...

Between 1983 and 2018, Mr. Heaps worked at the UCLA Student Health Center for 35 years. Hundreds of women claim he mistreated them, some of whom had cancer.
