Captain America - Memphis Flyer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While you were out enjoying the Labor Day weekend, the president of the United States, apparently having nothing better to do, went on a 10-hour posting spree on his Truth Social account. What follows is a list of some of the dozens of AI memes he put online last Sunday. See if you can figure out which ones he posted and which ones I made up: A video of himself changing “New Mexico” on a state road sign to “New America”; a picture of the moon with the words “The Moon is Ours!”; a video of himsel

I guess you heard about the big raid last Saturday night by ICE. Yeah, they went to Lafayette’s Music Room in Overton Square and locked all the doors, trapping everyone inside.

(The “international” part is a stretch, since there are no direct flights to another country from tiny ELP — though I suppose you could walk across the dry Rio Grande River to Mexico if you wanted to

It didn’t cause much of a news ripple when it was announced last week that Mid-South Immigration Advocates (MIA) will close its doors in September. But it should have. It’s a development that especially impacts the least of us: unaccompanied immigrant minors. These are children under 18 who have no family support and who are often living in group homes run by nonprofit organizations that help them with shelter, healthcare, and, equally important, attorneys to represent them and negotiate their c
