I doubt a Black reporter could have done this story and been "invited in."
But, apparently, the Times does not consider that this fact may bias their story? How is segregated access "objective?"
Whiteness is a credential often presented as neutrality.

there is a reason your imagination is the first thing fascism attempts to rob you of. may we be generous to ourselves and not dream half a dream before the work has even begun… we have the power to construct new language, frameworks, and ways of being.

Wait, it gets even WORSE. ICE was interested in this family because an agent wanted retribution against the father of the baby, who apparently had honked at the care of an undercover ICE agent the day before who had cut him off.

The headline that 21 DOGE staffers have resigned is a little misleading. These were employees of the United States Digital Service, which existed pre-administration and was absorbed into Musk’s team. These aren’t the young idiots; these are actual civil servants.

I think sarcasm around Elon’s Nazism should stop now. Jokes about the autism bullshit, any sort of validation of his sidestepping of the question, all of it should be replaced by a very cold, sober, direct confrontation with the richest man on Earth and advisor to the president being a Nazi.
