Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The highest calling of journalism isn’t to tell two sides of a story.

The highest calling of journalism is to tell the truth.

And acting like a stenographer is a betrayal of your audience.
Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Italy's Campi Flegrei supervolcano is stirring. Could this seismic giant soon erupt?

Well, how about that? Seems just a little inconsistent with the position (and sworn testimony) DOJ presented to Judge Xinis.

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states.

Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.

A dramatic reading of the names of the corporations and fat cats who enabled Trump's demolition of the East Wing by donating millions of dollars to this ballroom project, a monument to Trump's ego. And they all have big financial interests that can be affected by the Trump administration.

Call out the lies!
Trump's federal agents shot Marimar Martinez, a US citizen, multiple times for allegedly menacing them with her car in Chicago. Only hours later, Kristi Noem and DHS started spreading disinformation about the shooting.
