https://edition.cnn.com/2025/09/29/c...on-us-intl-hnkIn the race to attract the world’s smartest minds, China is gaining on the US
...
The Chinese government has for years looked for ways to attract talented international scientists, including the thousands of Chinese researchers who left the country to pursue advanced degrees in the US and other countries, many of whom went on to become pioneers and leaders in American science and technology.
That mission has only become more critical as the US maintains tight tech controls over China, and Chinese leader Xi Jinping increasingly sees the country’s ability to innovate as the only path to economic security.
Now, as the administration of US President Donald Trump pushes for massive cuts to federal research budgets, ramps up government oversight of research, dramatically hikes the price of H1-B visas for specialized foreign workers, and uses federal funding as leverage against universities, the mission is getting a boost.
Chinese universities see changes in the US as “a gift from Trump” that will help them recruit more and higher-caliber talents, according to Yu Xie, a Princeton University professor of sociology, who spoke to CNN while visiting Chinese universities earlier this year.
“You will see a proliferation of new, strengthened and improved research programs and training programs, in all different areas within China,” Xie said.
...
“Without a shred of doubt, the short-sighted policies by the current administration have effectively choked off mutually beneficial US-Sino collaboration in science,” he said.
“The irony is that the irreparable and self-inflicted harm these policies have instigated is likely far greater to the US than to China, as the latter is quickly and confidently ascending to become a scientific and technological powerhouse.”
detaining brown Americans pretextually, as we do now
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/29/u...-citizens.htmlA review by The New York Times of publicly reported cases and court records found that since January, at least 15 U.S. citizens have been arrested or detained and questioned about their citizenship by immigration agents or local law enforcement officers enlisted to work with the federal authorities.
In late January, Julio Noriega, 54, of Chicago, had been handing out copies of his résumé to local businesses in Berwyn, Ill., when ICE officers approached him as he walked out of a Jiffy Lube auto service shop.
They handcuffed him and loaded him into a van, without allowing him to explain he was a citizen, according to a motion filed in the Federal District Court for Northern Illinois. He was released about 10 hours later, the court filing states.

Kenny Laynez-Ambrosio, 18, was born and raised in West Palm Beach, Fla., where he lives with his mother and two brothers.
He was on his way to work with his mother and two friends in May when troopers from the Florida Highway Patrol stopped them in their employer’s pickup truck for what the agency said was a “commercial motor vehicle inspection.” Initially, Mr. Laynez-Ambrosio was calm, he recalled in an interview. But the situation escalated as troopers learned that others in the car were undo ented and ordered everyone out.
When no one got out of the vehicle, the troopers began to pull the three men out. At one point a trooper fired a Taser at one of them.
Mr. Laynez-Ambrosio, recording on his phone, repeatedly told the officers, “I’m from here!”
“You’ve got no rights here. You’re illegal, brother,” a trooper is heard saying. In Florida, a new state law requires all local and state law enforcement agencies, including the Highway Patrol, to participate in immigration enforcement.
All three men were taken to a nearby Border Patrol facility, and though Mr. Laynez-Ambrosio continued to say he was a citizen, he was held there for about six hours.

Asked about the U.S. citizens identified by The Times, the Department of Homeland Security defended its actions as “highly targeted.”
“If and when we do encounter individuals subject to arrest, our law enforcement are trained to ask a series of well-determined questions to determine status and removability,” Tricia McLaughlin, a department spokeswoman, said in a statement.
A report by the Cato Ins ute found that a substantial number of ICE actions have targeted workplaces and neighborhoods that are heavily Latino. One in five of the agency’s arrests has been of a Latino resident with no criminal past or removal order, according to Cato, a prominent libertarian think tank, which analyzed ICE arrest records obtained through the Deportation Data Project.
In upholding a lower-court ruling against the government, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit cited the experience of Jason Brian Gavidia, 29, who was born in California, the son of Salvadoran and Colombian immigrants. Mr. Gavidia, who refurbishes old cars, was raised in East Los Angeles, where Latinos make up the overwhelming majority of the population.
According to videos of the encounter, interviews and court records, officers did not identify themselves as they entered his auto business in Montebello, Calif., in June, masked and with guns drawn. They wrestled another owner, Javier Ramirez, 32, to the ground, holding him at gunpoint, and pushed Mr. Gavidia against a fence.
“The agents repeatedly asked Gavidia whether he is American — and they repeatedly ignored his answer: ‘I am an American,’” the ruling stated.
The officers, who were from Customs and Border Protection, an agency of the Department of Homeland Security, took Mr. Ramirez away in a van, driving him around for hours before taking him to a federal detention center downtown, according to a statement he submitted to the court. Mr. Ramirez did not speak to a lawyer or any family member for three days, he said in an interview.
Asked about the men’s cases, D.H.S. has said that Mr. Gavidia interfered with their enforcement operations and that Mr. Ramirez assaulted officers. But Mr. Gavidia was never charged, and a charge against Mr. Ramirez was dropped. Security videos of the incident reviewed by The Times do not show Mr. Ramirez assaulting officers.
In several of the cases, D.H.S. officials told The Times that the citizens assaulted officers; prosecutors have not pursued charges in any of those incidents.
Chicken fascist regime tearing American families apart
https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/n...-card-meeting/A man from Pasadena is speaking out and asking for help after his wife was detained by federal agents at the end of a scheduled green card hearing in downtown Los Angeles in early September.
Tucker May says that his wife, Barbara Gomes Marques, 38, was on her way to becoming a U.S. citizen when they headed to the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building almost two weeks ago. He says that at the end of her meeting for her green card, someone asked his wife to accompany them down a hallway to make a copy of her passport, which they thought was the next step in her gaining citizenship after they were married last year.
Now, he believes it was a trick to get the two separated before she was taken into custody by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents.
"Going home without her that night was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do," May said. "She put so much effort into looking nice, because she was excited to take a step toward becoming an American, and I had to go home, and I had to put away the shoes that they took off her feet and gave to me in a plastic bag."
He says that Marques is a do entarian without a criminal record who came to the U.S. on a tourist visa seven years ago.
"They put her in hand shackles and in leg shackles, and around the waist as well, like she's some hardened criminal. She had tears streaming down her face, and she told me one of the ICE agents pulled out his cell phone, laughing, and took a selfie," May said.
CBS News Los Angeles has reached out to both ICE and the Department of Homeland Security for further information on the incident. May said that they told his wife she was arrested for missing a court date regarding her status in 2019, something he says they were completely unaware of.
Marcelo Gondim is an immigration attorney who is helping represent the couple. He says that Marques spent a week at the Adelanto ICE Facility in Adelanto, CA, before she was transported to a different detention center in Arizona. She is set for transport to Louisiana, which he believes is her last stop before deportation. He claims that this is a tactic now being used to convolute the process.
"They're trying to remove her as far away as they can from her counsel, from her family, so that kind of cuts on her ability to defend herself," Gondim said. "Knowing that she's married to a U.S. citizen, she has a legal way to become a permanent resident in a matter of months. If they just gave her a chance to find her paperwork."
Gondim said that they've filed an emergency application for a temporary restraining order to stop her from being moved to a new detention center or deported.
While they wait to hear back from a judge, May is desperately calling for help, something he says that even goes above bringing his wife back.
"I'm a man trying to get his wife back home, and we need someone with more power than I have to help," May said. "If we allow these types of things to happen to our most vulnerable people, it's only a matter of time before it could happen to any of us."
Literally don't give a what any of you leftists cry about... Nada... Nothing... Yall are worthless and should be thrown in the dump; all your ideals, ideology, fake-woke-culture, and more.
You leftists are nothing but a plague!
Why do you want to be detained by secret police without an actual reason?
Masochist?
Why do you keep replying to us an talking about us?

Worth a read, and more evidence of the wide gulf b/w what SCOTUS says is happening and what is actually happening.

Trump's mass immigration policy is a moral abomination
https://www.thebulwark.com/p/the-mor...mmigration-iceLET’S GET THIS OUT OF THE WAY: When it comes to the recent deaths of immigrants being held in detention, it would be wrong to describe the situation as wholly unprecedented. Detainees died under Bush, Obama, and Biden. But detainee deaths have accelerated during President Donald Trump’s second term, with 17 already since his inauguration. During the Biden administration, there were 26 deaths in 48 months—roughly one death every two months. During Trump’s term, that rate has nearly quadrupled. And ICE, now one of the best-funded operations of the federal government, is planning to double detention space before the end of the year.
“It’s absolutely horrific,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), the ranking member of the immigration subcommittee, told me before jumping into the numbers above. In July, ICE was awarded $45 billion to expand its operations—its budget is now significantly larger than that of the federal prison system. And now, Jayapal points out, a little-known LLC has been awarded a $1.2 billion contract to build a facility in Texas despite never having previously won a federal contract for more than $16 million. Meanwhile, another $2.25 million contract was given to a Republican donor who received a presidential pardon from Bill Clinton in 2000 after having pleaded guilty to mail fraud.
“Contracts are being distributed to Trump’s buddies and people with no experience running detention centers, many of these contracts are no-bid,” Rep. Jayapal said. “They’re incarcerating people and allowing them to die, not providing medical facilities. There are no standards. It’s horrific.”
ICE tried to grab him just after dropping off his two little kids at day care. There is no reason why this interaction needed to happen at all. ICE is taking officers away from people with criminal histories to target noncriminals, all while massively increasing the stakes...
