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.

voiceofsandiego.org This Is the Beginning of the End for the Union-Tribune 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.

Bovino going out just like he came in: not telling the truth.

Bovino hasn’t been telling the truth since his very first operation in Kern County a year ago.

The Border Patrol’s own documents proved it.

calmatters.org/economy/2025/0…

calmatters.org Border Patrol said it targeted known criminals in Kern County. But it had no record on 77 of 78... Border Patrol said it had a list of targets for its high-profile January raid, but it had a record for just one of the 78 people it arrested.

Bovino shamelessly lies: "This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement"

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.

calmatters.org Judge restricts Border Patrol in California: 'You just can’t walk up to people with brown skin' '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 checks on one already came back showing he’s an aggravated felon with a prior conviction for fentanyl trafficking. One man, who claimed to be a U.S. citizen, was arrested and maced by federal agents after he allegedly slashed the tire of a federal vehicle and appeared to assault an agent was he was taken to the ground. We were with one team of federal agents, as there are others conducting enforcement in other areas of the city.

@USBPChiefELC tells me this is the farthest north his BP agents have gone in California for immigration enforcement during the Trump administration, and it’s meant to send the message that the federal government can and will go wherever they want in the sanctuary state.

“There is no sanctuary from our enforcement efforts,” Chief Bovino told me.
