Massive Migrant Crossings Lead to Another Shelter Opening in Arizona
Massive Migrant Crossings Lead to Another Shelter Opening in Arizona:
Border Patrol officials in the Yuma Sector announced the building of an additional temporary migrant shelter in response to “sustained large volumes of family units in the Arizona sector. Sector officials opened the new shelter for tours late last week.
Border Patrol officials began construction of a new family shelter in the Yuma Sector” on June 15 in response to the strain on resources and facilities” due to the continuing unprecedented numbers of migrant families illegally crossing the border in southwestern Arizona, according to a statement obtained by Breitbart News. The shelter became available for tours on June 28 and is expected to begin housing migrants soon.

San Francisco Board of Education votes to paint over school’s George Washington mural - The Washington Post
San Francisco Board of Education votes to paint over school’s George Washington mural - The Washington Post"The San Francisco Board of Education voted Tuesday to paint over a mural depicting scenes in the life of George Washington at a high school bearing his name after an advisory board said the artwork doesn’t represent the school’s values.
...Painted in 1936 by Victor Arnautoff, a native of Russia and protege of muralist Diego Rivera, the mural at the 2,000-student public school was commissioned by the Federal Art Project — a New Deal program to fund visual arts.
“...We believe students shouldn’t be exposed to violent imagery — that it’s degrading.”

UC Davis workshop to address ‘mobility justice’ and ‘bicycle equity’ | The College Fix
"A rather interesting workshop is coming to the University of California-Davis this November, one involving “mobility justice” which examines the intersections of so-called “bike equity” and “sustainable transportation futures.”
"A rather interesting workshop is coming to the University of California-Davis this November, one involving “mobility justice” which examines the intersections of so-called “bike equity” and “sustainable transportation futures.”
Sponsored by the campus Feminist Research Institute, the two-day event will include a “deep discussion” regarding the “complexity of equity” associated with making bikes and establishing new “mobilities,” but also will consider power relationships and racism.
Unsurprisingly, the concept of “mobility justice” comes from the critical studies field, as well as from “a collective of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) working in bicycling and sustainable transportation”:

Read all.Mobility justice examines how the racialized histories of cities and transportation systems limit the mobilities of certain communities in uneven ways. Racial justice scholarship seeks to account for how histories of colonialism and ongoing structures of white supremacy have produced systems of inequality for communities of color. It also examines alternative models that undo harmful practices and foster healing..."

Things Aren’t so Bad for California Under the Electoral College | The Heritage Foundation
Things Aren’t so Bad for California Under the Electoral College | The Heritage Foundation:
While progressives ignore the negative consequences of a national popular vote, they greatly exaggerate the positive impact on voters in coastal states like California. It is unlikely that voters in Bakersfield or San Bernardino, Redding or Rio Linda would see any more of presidential candidates than they do now. If state borders no longer mattered in presidential elections, it is unlikely candidates would spend any time in rural – or even suburban – areas.

"Hints that the already high levels of political hostility were about to reach record intensity gathered like storm warnings in the press last week.
According to the New York Times, "Oregon’s 11 Senate Republicans fled their state with little more than spare underwear and their passports.
They disappeared into Idaho cabins and motels" to avoid voting for taxes on climate change.
...That chaos and divisiveness bordered on open revolt.
Jimmy Carter suggested that a full investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election would show that Donald Trump was illegitimate.
Not to be outdone, Democratic presidential candidate Julián Castro says President Trump liked to terrorize immigrant families by postponing ICE raids until after July 4th.
To hear the politicians talk America was living under a tyranny.

To hear the politicians talk America was living under a tyranny.
The politicians were if anything restrained compared to the press.
A guest editorial in the New York Times argued that since the treatment of migrants likely "meets the definition of a mass atrocity," it would be good if government officials were identified and charged with war crimes.[T]he identities of the individual Customs and Border Protection agents who are physically separating children from their families and staffing the detention centers are not undiscoverable. Immigration lawyers have agent names; journalists reporting at the border have names, photos and even videos. These agents’ actions should be publicized, particularly in their home communities ...The individuals running detention centers are arguably directly responsible for torture ... activists should ... should lobby for human rights investigations, for other governments to deny entry visas to those involved in the abuses, or even for the initiation of torture prosecutions in foreign courts.
...There was in the drumbeat a buildup suggestive of teams psyching themselves to do something bold, building up a mood of defiance and despair so incandescent that Andy Ngo, a conservative journalist preparing to cover an event in Oregon, feared for his safety. He tweeted on June 29, "I am nervous about tomorrow’s Portland antifa rally. They’re promising 'physical confrontation' & have singled me out to be assaulted."
