Adults at ICE concentration camps also get punished for talking with people on the outside who can publicize their stories.

Based on what I've heard at the Otay Mesa camp in San Diego, they're punished with additional work duties, aren't allowed outside in the yard, and denied phone access.
My guess is that the goal here is not only to punish the children for turning more people against ICE/DHS, but also to make news outlets think twice about reporting on kids' suffering at the hands of ICE/DHS, out of concern that doing so might lead to retaliation against the kids.
ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

Any Republican or Democrat who continues to support Palantir, takes money from them, or refuses to hold them accountable is not your friend and should not be supported.

the overseer of project 2025 is telling you out loud that every inch you cede on trans rights is part of the plan to create a white christian fascist state
Kevin Roberts, President of The Heritage Foundation, claims that evidence suggests a correlation between undergoing Trans Medical Care and acts of violence.

He states Heritage's public policy solution is to ban it for all ages and they're willing to work towards this goal on an incremental basis.

I hope New Yorkers will challenge Mamdani about this. Too often, people feel they need to be absolutely for or against a politician — ignoring their missteps or throwing them out with the bathwater. You can like and/or believe in someone and still challenge them to deliver on their promises.

This reminds me of when I stopped agreeing with people by saying, "yeah, ok" and started replying, "smart." Could be about anything. They say, "Let's go to the bodega before we light this blunt." And I say, "Smart!" Makes people feel good.

Crimes against humanity.
At the same Texas concentration camp:

“There were children in Dilley who were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, several mothers told me. Recently, two cases of measles were discovered in the center.“

Extreme child abuse as state policy.

Hey NBC, Susan Collins is not a centrist. She consistenly votes for what Trump wants and only goes against him when they know they can lose her vote and still get their evil agenda passed. She's a pretend centrist and claiming otherwise stupid.

100% agreed that all the award snubbing will add to Eddington’s legacy and mystique. Would that make OBAA or Sinners or Hamnet or w/e this generation’s Driving Miss Daisy? We all know how Spike Lee feels about that whole situation.
Putting a marker down that "Eddington" is going to be the "Do the Right Thing" of our time, this movie snubbed by the Oscars that decades later everyone agrees captured the zeitgeist better than anything else
Small towns often are known for their quirky, insular intrigue, but the drama unfolding in Purcellville, a Virginia exurb that’s a 50-mile drive west of Washington, is a brass-knuckled version of quaint.
