Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Sparks Fear and Activism
The Guardian highlights President Trump’s intensified anti-immigrant rhetoric and policy blitz following a deadly shooting involving a National Guardsman, with the administration targeting people from a “startling range of countries.” This crackdown has deepened fear among immigrant communities and prompted a surge of grassroots activism. France24 reports on New Yorkers organizing anti-ICE training sessions, aiming to empower residents to resist and disrupt immigration enforcement operations. Meanwhile, The Hill notes that Trump’s policies are increasingly being justified through collective punishment, with critics warning of a “guilt by association” approach. These developments have heightened anxieties among groups such as Afghans in the US, reports The Hill, who fear a deteriorating situation due to punitive immigration actions.

The analysis draws parallels to the present, arguing that today’s activists—often criticized for disruptive tactics—reflect the same persistence and courage that made historic movements successful. This perspective is especially relevant in a climate of rising injustice and polarization.

Data Center Boom Raises Alarms Over “Forever Chemicals” in the US
Grist warns that the Trump administration’s deregulatory push to accelerate data center construction could fast-track the approval of new chemicals—including potentially hazardous “forever chemicals” (PFAS)—with limited oversight. While industry groups tout efficiency gains, experts and environmentalists fear long-term health and ecosystem risks, especially as these chemicals persist in soil, water, and human bodies. The expedited approach is drawing criticism for prioritizing growth over precaution, with lobbying from the semiconductor industry also playing a role.
