They suffer from anemia and high blood pressure.

Their babies are born early, weighing too little and with underdeveloped lungs.

I don't think most Americans have any idea how dangerous it is for a president to declare an entire ethnic group to be "garbage." This is how the worst atrocities in human history have begun.

The full Weiss memo is dogshit
-who cares if administration figures “regret” sending people to CECOT
-who cares about the criminal histories of the people we sent to CECOT, we sent them to a torture prison
—who cares about the “debate” over the legality of sending people to a torture prison

As a pastor, these values are baseline. You shouldn’t even NEED to ask us what we believe or where our congregations stands because it should be glaringly obvious. If it’s not — or if you can’t get a clear, direct answer — RUN. There are congregations (like mine & many others) eager to welcome you.
If you are a progressive Christian, learn how to stand up for what you believe is right. Ask for a meeting with your minister or priest. Ask them to their face:

- what do they think about trans liberation?
- what do they think about gay marriage?
- what do they think about ICE kidnapping people?

CBS paid the president of the United States millions in bribe money and now they censor news reports so it does not annoy him. I don’t know how much plainer we can put this.

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense
One explanation for Bari killing the story is that she did so as a public act of fealty to the administration. But another is that, as an inexperienced journalist, she doesn’t understand that a refusal to go on the record is a kind of comment in and of itself

I'm searching Getty Images and found some photos credited to the Boston Herald that redact the faces of ICE/federal agents. They don't redact the face of the guy they're arresting.

I'm curious about the ethics of doing this. I don't think I've ever seen this on Getty before.

The devastation I feel about this attack on science in particular is hard to cope with. It’s like watching my dad die all over again. I would do anything to spare someone a death via pancreatic cancer.

I have been in Portland a month and already know that Legacy Emanuel is shit. I’m disgusted but unsurprised that they’re allowing this, too, on their campus.
NONE OF US are safe.

This video is long but super important. This regards Legacy Emanuel hospital in Portland Oregon. ICE is influencing healrhcare practices and HIPAA privacy protections. Also, nurses are prevented from calling family members. The frozen crew are randomly roaming the halls.
