Worth repeating this with every new Epstein document drop. The party of Denny Hastert is the party of Jim Jordan is the party of Matt Gaetz is the party of Donald Trump. Looking the other way and protecting child predators from the law is their brand.

“By this fall, ICE agents were arresting people at a higher rate in Illinois than almost anywhere else in the country.”

“The people arrested here were as young as 4 and as old as 75.”

“Most weren’t charged with a crime. But many of those arrested have already been deported.”
ICE's Illinois Arrests During Trump's Crackdown Were Among Nation's Highest
Most people arrested in Operation Midway Blitz didn't have criminal records, according to ICE's own data. Here are four other findings our investigative team discovered.

Thread. This is such a rookie document review error that anyone employed by a law firm who allowed this to happen would expect to be fired and/or lose their bar license.
All right people so literally I downloaded one of the government documents to Books on my iPad. I highlighted some text that was not redacted and it included some that was redacted and I copied it over to notes and I pasted it and you can see everything unredacted.

I know Sharyn Alfonsi, i worked with Sharyn Alfonsi (at ABC News), Bari Weiss you are no Sharyn Alfonsi. Sharyn is as good as a journalist as you will ever find, and she has more integrity in her little toe than Weiss has in her entire body.
Sharyn Alfonsi, a “60 Minutes” correspondent, criticized the network’s decision to remove her reporting from Sunday’s edition of the show.

Agree.

Sharyn Alfonsi is standing up.

People need to stand up with her and for her.
Via @liamjscott.bsky.social at the other site here’s the full email from 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi. She’s putting her career on the line by fighting here. And she’s fighting for all of us.

Sadness arrives uninvited. Joy demands more—it requires us to search, to kindle, to protect the flame against every wind. When we choose joy despite everything that argues against it, we don't just save ourselves—we illuminate the way for everyone around us.

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

I think maybe just maybe Bari Weiss's spiking that CECOT story might have, I don't know, backfired?

Dear Media,

When JD Vance says "take the country back," what do you think he means? What would the party that controls the White House, Congress, the Supreme Court, and various state goats—plus leading businesses, media orgs, and more—take back? Take what from whom?

Thanks,

If you're a staffer at 60 Minutes who worked on that CECOT segment that got yanked by Bari Weiss at the last minute, figure out a way to leak it. Not saying it's an easy decision or there won't be consequences, but ask yourself why you got into journalism in the first place.
