    better behaved and better students, according to this study

    Immigrant students, on average, are disciplined less frequently than native-born students, according to the data. Using disciplinary records as a measure of behavior, they found exposure to better-behaved immigrants had a small, but positive effect on academic outcomes of their peers. This suggests U.S.-born students, particularly less advantaged students, might benefit by being exposed to these better-behaved students and being taught in a classroom with fewer disruptions.
    Another possible explanation, Giuliano says, is the “relative standing channel,” which suggests the test scores of economically disadvantaged students or black students “improve because they are exposed to immigrants who perform better academically.”

    refoulement of Christians to Iran, where conversion to other religions is illegal

    under US and international law, refoulement is a crime

    When sisters Mahan and Mozhan Motahari first came to St. Thomas Episcopal Church in McLean, Virginia, in 2022, they were “deeply joyful,” said the Rev. Fran Gardner-Smith, the church’s rector. In Iran, their home country where they first encountered Christianity, they would have risked death, imprisonment or torture to be baptized publicly because it’s illegal for Muslims to convert.


    But in Virginia, they were “finally able to practice their faith in the open,” Gardner-Smith told Religion News Service.


    “They are regular hosts of our fellowship time after church,” she said, adding that the Maryland-based sisters were baptized in 2022, the same year they arrived in the U.S. “They are regulars at worship. They bring other members of their family with them sometimes. We have a pumpkin patch in the fall and so they’ve volunteered with the pumpkin patch.”


    But the priest said she and her congregation were shocked when U.S. Customs and Border Protection posted a photo of the two young women Wednesday (Dec. 3) on X and other social media platforms. In a caption, the agency claimed the pair had been arrested at an airport in the U.S. Virgin Islands when the women were “determined to be illegally present in the U.S.”

    You laugh at the citizens not having any fun in the sun either. Stop pretending it's a "law" thing for you.

    I take it you approve sending converted Christians back to Iran, where they face persecution, imprisonment and death?

    Even if doing so is contrary to US law?

    Judge Xinis orders Kilmar Abrego released without delay

    There's a do not remove order, so in principle he can't be deported

    I bet DOJ is sorry it dropped all criminal charges against him

    Abrego agreed to be deported and Costa Rica agreed to take him -- but the agreement by Costa Rica was kept under seal by DOJ, because they wanted to send him to a country unfriendly to him

    Judge Xinis is pissed off about that, but more pissed off that DOJ never produced any evidence there was a prior deportation order in 2019, which it has claimed all along

    overnight an immigration judge with ostensibly no jurisdiction gave the government a (new) retroactive order of removal for Abrego and ordered him to appear for an interview this morning with no notice to his lawyers or the court

    Judge Xinis issued a new TRO preventing Abrego's removal, ordered the government to transmit the TRO to all relevant parties, and scheduled new hearings

    DOJ is very worried about its dirty laundry being exposed

    robbing Peter to pay Paul

    Congress appropriated $170B for DHS -- have they already run out of money, or is Sec'y Noem just being slow to approve spending?

    A report prepared by Democratic members of Congress says the Pentagon has diverted at least $2 billion of its own funds to support the Trump administration's immigration operations, negatively impacting what they say is the U.S. military's readiness.


    Separately, a response from Gen. Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to questions posed by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., that was shared with ABC News disclosed that two major military exercises were canceled this year and a third was scaled back as a result of the deployment of military forces to immigration operations.


    Caine said that both the "Vibrant Response" exercise scheduled for April and May, as well as a rotation by the 10th Mountain Division at the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk, Louisiana, over the summer were canceled because of the deployment
    h​ttps://abcnews.go.com/US/2b-pentagon-funds-diverted-immigration-operations-congressional-democrats/story?id=128296261


    The review found that least $40.3 million has been spent on paying for the U.S. military flights used to deport and transport migrants back to their home countries instead of using the cheaper flights contracted by the Department of Homeland Security.


    "This is a baffling waste of military resources considering the appropriation of $170 billion to DHS to fund immigration enforcement earlier this year," said the report. It added that the information used to compile the report indicated that "the vast majority of these funds have not been reimbursed by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), to date."



    "We are particularly concerned that DHS may not be reimbursing DoD for these funds," a group of Democratic lawmakers wrote to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a letter that included a copy of the report. "Allowing DHS to continue to pick DoD’s pockets puts our military readiness at risk."

    Where did CIS get these numbers?

    Are they too emotionally fragile to tell?

    A questionable source exhibits one or more of the following: extreme bias, consistent promotion of propaganda/conspiracies, poor or no sourcing of credible information, a complete lack of transparency, and/or is fake news. Fake News is the deliberate attempt to publish hoaxes and/or disinformation for the purpose of profit or influence (Learn More). Sources listed in the Questionable Category may be very untrustworthy and should be fact-checked on a per-article basis. Please note sources on this list are not considered fake news unless specifically written in the reasoning section for that source. See all Questionable sources.


    • Overall, we rate CIS a questionable source based on publishing misleading information (propaganda) regarding immigration and ties either directly or indirectly to the John Tanton Network, a known White Nationalist.
