Title 42 isn’t supposed to be border management—it’s a public health order that was never based on public health.

It was weaponized by Trump and Biden for 3 years with help from the courts, leaving a bottleneck on our asylum system.

This “surge” was predictable and preventable.

1. It is with great sadness that we learn the news of Bruno Latour’s passing today. He was an intellectual giant, a friend, & someone whose work inspired me greatly. A thread for those who want to know more about this extraordinary life.

@brooklyn11210 @Lukewearechange @JohnGMcNutt I don’t know what’s more offensive - spending 150k on a 4-legged thermometer, or spending 150k just so they could avoid a human interaction with unhoused people?

@balloonleap Thank you - fixed!
