California is preparing to share with an outside organization detailed information about driver’s license holders, including immigrants who do not have legal authorization to live in the U.S. That breaks a promise the state made a decade ago when it began issuing licenses to unauthorized immigrants, advocates say, and it means more than 1 million people may face higher risk of deportation.

MINNEAPOLIS — The infamous Somali immigrant-run “Quality Learing Center” in Minneapolis was abandoned on Wednesday — a day after the FBI raided the daycare and about 20 other local operations as part of an investigation into allegations of massive social services fraud in Minnesota. The business’s misspelled sign has been removed, and replaced with a sign warning visitors that security cameras are in use. The building itself — which was painted a spearmint-like color when The Post was there in December — has been repainted a more neutral slate-blue hue, and a pair of “no trespassing” signs were newly hung...

A Maine city councilor will face an ethics board review after he was heard complaining about 'illegals' in his community. Bangor City Councilor Wayne Mallar, 81, discussed a proposed budget increase for multilingual services in schools at a Board of Ethics meeting on March 31. 'The school department's asking for a 10 percent increase. As far as I'm concerned, they get no increase,' he said - seemingly unaware his comments were being picked up by a microphone. 'They can't speak English, read English or write English. It's not a disability. We do not have to furnish. They're probably all illegals...

Congress created the temporary protected status program, often abbreviated TPS, in 1990 to bar the removal of foreign nationals who hail from countries roiled by civil unrest, violence, or natural disaster, regardless of their immigration status. Under the program, the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security can designate a certain country for TPS for periods of up to 18 months. While supposedly "temporary," these status designations — presently extended to a dozen countries and shielding millions of foreigners — have in many cases been extended for decades. Recognizing that the conditions previously cited as justification for TPS have materially...

Salt Lake City took in Somali ‘refugees’. Now it’s going to pay the price. In a race roiled in recent weeks by scandal, Liban Mohamed, the Muslim son of Somali immigrants, pulled off a surprising upset in a crowded 1st Congressional District, winning the endorsement of a majority of Democratic delegates at the party’s state convention Saturday. “It’s a progressive’s time to lead. It’s the working class’ time to lead,” Mohamed said after the results were announced Saturday night. “The support is growing as people get to know us and learn about the campaign we’re running, the positivity that we...

An upcoming international math conference should be moved outside of the United States of America due to Trump’s “unbridled hatred of immigrants” and because the “country [is] on the verge of martial law,” professors say. A petition, which reportedly has more than 2,300 signatures from more than 75 countries, demands the International Congress of Mathematicians relocate its planned July conference in Philadelphia. The petition says there is precedent for the action, since the 2022 conference in Russia was relocated due to the war. […] The mathematicians continue on to cite grievances they have, including “aiding and abetting the ongoing genocide...

President Donald Trump endorsed the idea of renaming U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as National Immigration and Customs Enforcement (NICE). In a Truth Social post, he shared a screenshot of a post on X in which someone had written, "I want Trump to change ICE to NICE (National Immigration and Customs Enforcement) so the media has to say NICE agents all day everyday." "GREAT IDEA!!! DO IT. President DJT" Trump wrote on the Truth Social post.

It is broadly agreed by constitutional scholars that the purpose of the Fourteenth Amendment was to constitutionalize the Civil Rights Act of 1866. Many in Congress initially argued that the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865 granted citizenship and the rights and liberties attached to that status. Others argued that there should be explicit legislation, which resulted in the Civil Rights Act the following year. Still others thought the Civil Rights Act was insufficient because future majorities could repeal it. This concern became the impetus for the Fourteenth Amendment, which constitutionalized the Civil Rights Act.The citizenship clause was a...

Secretary Duffy officially announced the withholding of $73.5M in highway funding on April 16th after much back and forth. New York state failed to revoke illegally issued non-domiciled CDLs and CLPs. Officials allege that 53% of all reviewed non-domiciled CDLs in the state were issued illegally.

“There is a silence in the night sky that has bothered me for as long as I can remember.” That line, attributed to Richard Feynman, lands because it gets at a simple, stubborn feeling. The sky looks full. Stars crowd the darkness. It seems reasonable to think someone else should be out there, and close enough to find. Yet the deeper physicists look into the laws that govern the universe, the more that silence starts to seem less like a cosmic riddle and more like a built-in feature of reality. Human intuition is not much help. It developed for ordinary...

The Justice Department has identified 384 foreign-born Americans whose citizenship it intends to revoke, marking a significant expansion of denaturalization efforts as part of the Trump administration's broader immigration crackdown. Senior DOJ officials told colleagues during a meeting last week that civil litigators in 39 U.S. attorneys' offices would soon be assigned to file cases against the individuals, an unnamed source told The New York Times. The newspaper reported on Thursday that two others familiar with the plans confirmed the initiative, but they did not immediately make it clear what led officials to target the 384 individuals. Under federal law,...

CHEYENNE — Nearly 120 commercial truck drivers have been caught and turned over to federal authorities in the five months the Laramie County Sheriff’s Office has been running its Truck Around and Find Out enforcement, including 46 during its latest operation last week.

SCOOP In an unearthed video, Senator Cornyn’s team forgot to delete a video from YouTube where Cornyn advocates for amnesty for illegal aliens. It would be a shame if every Republican in Texas sees this before the May 26th runoff. No amnesty!

A federal appeals court on Tuesday lifted a judge’s order requiring officials to dismantle “Alligator Alcatraz” in response to a lawsuit filed by environmental groups. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit agreed with the Trump administration in a 2-1 vote that there wasn’t enough federal control over the immigration facility’s construction in Florida to trigger a federal environmental review. “Federal officials made no construction decision capable of triggering the Act,” wrote U.S. Circuit Judge William Pryor. Florida constructed the detention facility last year to assist with immigration enforcement. Located at the Dade-Collier Training and Transition Airport in...
