The Obama administration separated migrant children from families under certain limited circumstances, like when the child’s safety appeared at risk or when the parent had a serious criminal history.
But family separations as a matter of routine came about because of Trump’s “zero tolerance” enforcement policy, which he eventually suspended because of the uproar. Obama had no such policy.
A federal agency accused a popular gas station chain of discriminating against Black, Native American and multiracial applicants in its hiring practices. The Sheetz criminal screening process disproportionately screened out applicants from those legally protected groups, the lawsuit announced by the US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on Thursday alleged. The gas station chain screens and rejects applicants who have criminal records, the EEOC said.
Those employment practices violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination in the workplace, the suit said.
The lawsuit doesn’t claim Sheetz was actively motivated by race when rejecting applicants. In a statement, Sheetz said it “does not tolerate discrimination of any kind.”
As part of the hiring process, applicants must answer questions about their criminal justice history and go through a background check through a third-party vendor. Those who fail the screening do not get hired.
About 14.5% of Black applicants failed the screening, while less than 8% of White applicants failed, according to the lawsuit. Native Americans and multiracial applicants failed at a rate of about 13%.
“Black job applicants comprise a disproportionately high number of the total number of job applicants whom Defendants have refused to hire because of criminal justice history information,” the lawsuit said. The lawsuit added that according to published statistics, Black people and Native Americans in the United States “are subject to arrest, conviction, and incarceration at significantly higher rates relative to White persons.”

Myth: People with criminal histories are likely to commit another crime.
Fact: Most people who are convicted of a crime don’t have a second conviction.
Myth: Recidivism depends on the type of crime committed.
Fact: Type of crime is a poor predictor of risk of future offending.
Myth: There’s no way to tell whether someone will reoffend.
Fact: There are research-backed factors employers can look for.
Additional streams of research provide evidence that corporate and social policy changes can generate the triple win referenced above.
First, many employers may not realize the scale of the opportunity to hire people with convictions. A 2022 report by RAND researchers published in Science Advances found that 25% of people working in 2018 had at least one adult conviction for a non-traffic offense. If a quarter of people who already have jobs have a conviction and businesses continue to operate effectively, how well-grounded are hiring managers’ fears of hiring people with convictions?
As a society we benefit from reduced crime when a person with a conviction gets a job. Research on nursing home employees in New York showed that people who were denied a job after a background check because of their record had nearly twice the risk of being arrested in the next year relative to what would have happened if they had been able to keep their job.
It’s possible that government policy can help businesses by reducing the costs, real or perceived, associated with hiring certain people with records. A 2018 RAND research report showed that incentives, including wage subsidies and insurance, can increase employers’ willingness to hire people with convictions. Of course, success in those initiatives depends on implementing best practices.
We know that many most people simply grow out of the behaviors that could lead to a criminal record. Given that, should some other person’s worth as employee be determined by the fact they got caught? We’ve busted some myths and laid out facts that show the the risk of hiring a person with a conviction is probably lower than they assumed. And we know hiring people with convictions can improve outcomes for employers, those with records, and society in general.

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Papua New Guinea’s Prime Minister James Marape accused Joe Biden of disparaging the South Pacific island nation by implying that an uncle of the U.S. president had been eaten by “cannibals” there during World War II.
Biden’s comments offended a key strategic ally as China moves to increase its influence in the region.

Net neutrality is back: FCC bars broadband providers from meddling with internet speed
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/net-neutrality-fcc/
Internet service providers can no longer fiddle with how quickly — or not — customers are able to browse the web or download files, the Federal Communications Commission ruled Thursday.
The 3-2 vote to adopt net neutrality regulations, which block wireless companies from selectively speeding up, slowing down or blocking users' internet traffic, restores a policy that was discarded during the Trump administration.
The reversal also paves the way for a legal fight with the broadband industry. The development is the latest in a years-long feud between regulators and ISPs, with the former arguing that protections are necessary to ensure all websites are treated the same, and the latter rejecting the rules as government overstep.

Things so strange, even Republicans taking credit for enacted Biden policies that they voted against. Stay "sleepy" Joe.

Clearly an uneducated statement as Russia has lots of immigrants and their economy is growing.
India's economy is booming and they definitely do not need immigrants right now.

You're wrong. Look at your chart.Dizzy28 wrote:GDP growth countries with strong immigration could only dream off [sic].
The Biden speech specifically referenced economic growth projections - which, of course, may be revised up or down.
India's GDP growth is projected to slow in the current fiscal year 2024/25 to 6.8%, and has a forecast 6.5% expansion the following fiscal year. Do to its population size, India will likely continue to post a GDP (PPP) per capita that is in line with Guatemala, Bolivia and Laos.
US GDP growth was about 2.5% in 2023 and is projected to be 2.6% in 2024. Japan's GDP growth is forecast to slow from about 1.9% in 2023 to around 0.5% in 2024.Biden - "Why is China stalling so badly economically, why is Japan having trouble, why is Russia, why is India, because they're xenophobic."

And the other countries President Pudding Brain called xenophobic are also are expected to perform better than the US in the upcoming years.
