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.

So this is a bit weird. The Guardian has done a big ‘Who owns the UK media?’ graphic that includes all national titles + Unherd, Statesman etc.
But *not* the Observer. 🧐
Cock-up? Or implicit acknowledgment that we still don’t actually know who *does* own the Observer.

Grifter-in-chief. Racist. Russian asset. Trump groupie.

A professional piss-taker and national security (and sanity) threat, leading the polls to be the next PM.

There have been reports of volunteers in TN being harassed, and those incidents have been forwarded to local authorities. Everyone deserves to participate in our democracy without fear or intimidation. If you ever find yourself in a situation that feels unsafe, don’t hesitate to reach out for help.
