NEW: A baby held in immigration detention became so sick, she had to be rushed to a hospital in severe respiratory distress.
“She was at the brink of dying,” a lawyer told me.
But the girl didn’t go home after her 10-day hospital stay; instead, ICE put her and her mother back in lock up at Dilley.

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them

The number of times I've felt the need to oversell an author's social presence when I'm presenting at acquisitions so their book doesn't get dismissed out of hand... Execs love to abdicate responsibility for marketing.

She replied: “I am pro-Israel.”
