  • Immigrant Activist Ravi Ragbir Speaks After Biden's Last-Minute Pardon Saved Him from Deportation

    The Trump administration has begun its crackdown on immigrant communities in the United States, with the Department of Homeland Security announcing Tuesday it will allow federal agents to conduct raids at schools, houses of worship and hospitals, ending a yearslong policy that banned Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from arresting people at these sensitive locations. This comes a day after President Trump signed a series of executive orders that included declaring a “national emergency” at the southern border, launching mass raids and deportations, restricting federal funds from sanctuary cities, and claiming to end birthright citizenship, which is protected by the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. For more on the fight for immigrant rights, we speak with immigrant rights activists Ravi Ragbir and Amy Gottlieb and lawyer Alina Das. Ragbir received a last-minute pardon from outgoing President Joe Biden that removed the threat of deportation that he has faced for about two decades. “I feel so light and so free,” Ragbir says, vowing to continue his advocacy for other people facing arrest and deportation.

  • Tech's Rightward Drift: Researcher Becca Lewis on How Trump Captured Silicon Valley

    Many Silicon Valley companies and their billionaire owners have formed “a symbiotic relationship” with Donald Trump, showering the president and his administration with money and adulation in exchange for friendly policies, according to researcher Becca Lewis. She says that while Silicon Valley has always had reactionary currents, the Biden administration’s stricter regulation of the industry led to a decisive break with Democrats, who had previously benefited from Big Tech’s cash and influence. “Now you see a wholehearted embrace of Trump with the hopes of deregulation,” says Lewis.
