I wanted to understand what Alden Global Capital’s purchase of @sdut meant for San Diegans. My conclusion: This is the beginning of the end for the 155-year-old paper. https://t.co/Of4v3I7dHr

Under Alden, there's no plan for the future. There's just revenue extraction for as long as a generation of older newspaper subscribers live to keep paying their bills.

A federal judge has barred the Border Patrol from conducting warrantless sweeps in the Eastern District of California after they went to places like Home Depot. Sacramento is in the Eastern District. https://t.co/vGHirLGLfl

'You just can’t walk up to people with brown skin and say give me your papers,' a judge said in ordering the Border Patrol to halt warrantless sweeps in California.
BREAKING: We just rode along w/ Border Patrol as they conducted immigration enforcement in Sacramento, the capitol of the sanctuary state of California. Upon arrival at a Home Depot, suspected illegal aliens took off running in all directions. 10+ arrested. BP tells us records

CalMatters spoke with a number of migrants about their arrests and detentions after the first weekend of LA raids. Their accounts raise potential legal questions about the government’s operation.

Their families won’t know what happened to them. They’ll be shackled, whisked away to another state, forced to subsist for days on potato chips, apples, water, and the occasional cold sandwich.

Taken: What happens after an LA immigration raid Masked men pull up quickly and approach Latino men. When someone runs, they’re taken. When they don’t answer a question, they’re taken. When they can’t produce papers, they’re taken. W/@WendyFry_ @LAHepler @AnatRubin1 @add

I received the criminal complaint against Adrian Martinez and nowhere in it does it mention him punching an agent
Once again, a false narrative is and was being pushed out on the arrest of a U.S. citizen in Pico Rivera, CA. Don't take our word for it, check out @USAttyEssayli take on it. This subject just caught a federal case for assault on a federal agent. DON'T ASSAULT.

Bovino doesn’t distinguish between field workers or paleteros and fentanyl dealers. To him, they all fit one category: “Bad people.” W/@WendyFry_ @add

Father Peter O’Riley says is standing calm as LAPD fire less lethal rounds all around him. O’Riley says he’s here because he’s an immigrant and he supports free speech and the right to peacefully protest.

I have enough gray hairs in my beard to have seen my fair share of ridiculous government responses to public records requests. This is probably the worst I’ve ever seen. 289 days!

California boasts very strict rules around toxic waste disposal. So places like Tesla, Sally’s Beauty Supplies, the U.S. Navy and even California’s government instead ship it off to Mexico. Our new investigation on what happens once it gets there: https://t.co/Fp8AFaE7kR

California companies and governments avoid the Golden State's strict environmental regulations by shipping toxic waste to Mexico.

The latest Alden change at @sdut: no more Spanish-language edition. “No announcements will be made to the community.”
The last issue of U-T en español will be published on Dec. 30. No announcements will be made to the community. I wish the best to my colleagues, especially @liliaohara for 25 years of dedication to the Latino community on both sides of the border. #lossforwords #UTespanol

This would be yet another page from the Alden playbook: they just stop paying their bills. https://t.co/Of4v3I7dHr
