“Local communities naturally want to see new jobs but not at the expense of higher electricity prices or the diversion of their water,” Smith said in an interview with The Associated Press. In Hobart, Indiana, last week, the City Council approved a tax-abatement package for a multibillion-dollar Amazon data center planned there. Company officials have pledged that the centers’ impact will be minimal and will contribute carbon-free energy to the power grid.

Today, the term remigration has come to refer to the forcible, en masse expulsion of unwanted, often non-white, minority populations. Recent American remigration policies have institutionalised this use of extremist European rhetoric to curb immigration within its own borders, bridging the values held by right-wing actors on the other side of the Atlantic. Hidden costs: from economic stability to safety A core claim advanced by far-right movements worldwide is that remigration constitutes a common solution to manage problematic migration systems. Yet, for political players in these countries, migration is presented as the systemic problem that must be addressed. The aggressive US migration restriction and remigration ‘solution’ borders on incoherence, as the key innovation component of American companies and universities is foreign-born workers, posing the threat of a brain drain.

LOADING ERROR LOADINGA former U.S. Navy sailor convicted of selling technical and operating manuals for ships and operating systems to an intelligence officer working for China was sentenced Monday to more than 16 years in prison, prosecutors said.

The Department of Homeland Security has altered its account of an immigration enforcement-related shooting in a Baltimore suburb on Christmas Eve after details in its initial statement were contradicted by local police. The new detail in the Maryland ICE shooting was first announced Thursday by the Anne Arundel County Police Department, which is investigating the incident. The ICE officers were conducting “a targeted immigration enforcement operation” in Glen Burnie when they confronted the van, McLaughlin said. Officers approached the van and asked Sousa-Martins to turn off the engine, but he refused and attempted to leave the scene, ramming ICE vehicles, and “then (driving) his van directly at ICE officers,” McLaughlin said. As with the Maryland incident, DHS officials allege both Good and the driver in Portland “weaponized” their vehicles and targeted law enforcement.
