The three others arrested and indicted with Don Lemon were also Black people. I saw many non-black journos outside who weren't arrested, but they came to do the same job.

How they come for the Black journos first, will be how they learn how to successfully come for non-white journos. #MarkMyWords
the federal government is arresting journalists not only without a warrant but after being explicitly denied a warrant

i wonder what our freedom of speech warriors like Matt Taibbi and Bari Weiss have to say about this

Schools in my area walked out last week, fortunately, as schools have been canceled all week here (sbow/ice/arctic temps)
I hope someone puts together a compilation of schools across the nation that walked out.

I read an article where she said people used to scream KEVVIIN when they spotted her. Also loved her over-the-top performance on Schitts. #RIP

People are reading this way wrong. Schumer detached DHS from the other five bills in return for a two week CR on the DHS bill. Now Democrats can make demands on DHS spending without having to shut down agencies covered in the other five bills. They have way more leverage to get real concessions.
People just going out here saying the literal opposite of what happened. Thune caved! Thune did! This is a cave by Thune and Senate Republicans, any possible way you cut it.

I just voted NO on the spending package because it still includes DHS funding.

When the president was calling all Somali immigrants "garbage" who "come from hell" and "contribute nothing" to America and therefore needed to go "back where they came from" did you ask him to "stop the rhetoric," Tom?
Homan: "I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March -- if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anybody die."

Liam is in ICE custody and his health is deteriorating.

Joaquin Castro says Liam is depressed, lethargic, sleeping excessively and barely eating, repeatedly asking about his mom, and when he can go home. He’s withdrawn and not the bright preschooler he was just days ago.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Yes. I know exactly which chapter I would re-do. I've imagined it a million times. Usually around 3am🙄

The first Native American director of the National Park Service knows why Trump has gutted the agency. The goal is to break Americans' symbiotic relationship with our public lands so we no longer feel responsible for nurturing the environment.
