Trump intensifies nativist message with sweeping proposal to deport migrants
Donald Trump intensified his politics of #nativism and #xenophobia on Friday
by announcing a sweeping plan to deport Venezuelans he claimed have “#infected” a once peaceful city in Colorado.
The Republican presidential nominee held a campaign rally in Aurora on a stage adorned with posters
displaying mugshots of people in prison-orange uniforms with descriptions including “illegal immigrant gang members from Venezuela”.
Trump told the crowd: “I’m announcing today that, upon taking office, we will have an
‘Operation Aurora’ at the federal level
to expedite the removals of these savage gangs.”
He pledged to invoke the #Alien #Enemies #Act, a 1798 law that allows the president to deport any non-citizen from a country that the US is at war with.
The rally represented a detour for Trump,
since Colorado is not a battleground state and looks certain to vote for his Democratic rival, Kamala Harris.
But recent events offered him an opportunity to exploit a swirl of local rumours to push his anti-immigrant message.
Aurora, a city of about 340,000 people near Denver, hit headlines in August when a video circulated showing armed men walking through an apartment building housing Venezuelan immigrants.
Trump amplified the story and falsely portrayed the city as overrun by members of the Venezeulan gang Tren de Aragua, or TDA.
Authorities say the incident happened in a single block and the area is again safe,
noting that the local crime rate is actually declining.
Aurora’s Republican mayor, Mike Coffman, called Trump’s claims “grossly exaggerated” and insisted:
“The narrative is not accurate by any stretch of the imagination.”

Mpox, a typically less #contagious and milder cousin of #smallpox, has #infected #people in #West and #Central #Africa with increasing frequency since the 1970s. Until the current #outbreak, however, the variant #endemic to the region never #spread very efficiently between #humans, nor had it been recorded as frequently #mutating.

#Science is littered with #zombie studies. Here’s how to stop their spread. Just by citing a #zombiepublication, new #research becomes #infected: A single unreliable #citation can threaten the reliability of the research that cites it, and that infection can cascade, spreading across hundreds of papers. A 2019 paper on #childhoodcancer, for example, cites 51 different #RetractedPapers making its research likely impossible to salvage. https://thehill.com/opinion/education/4326865-science-is-littered-with-zombie-studies-heres-how-to-stop-their-spread/ #KM #education #medicine
A new ransomware family calling itself #3AM has emerged. It was used in a single attack by a ransomware affiliate that attempted to deploy LockBit on a target’s network & then switched to 3AM when #LockBit was blocked.
3AM is written in #Rust language & it appears to be a new #malware family.
The #ransomware attempts to stop multiple services on the #infected computer before it encrypts files. Once #encryption is complete, it attempts to delete #VolumeShadowCopies.
