ICE detainees arrive at jail scared and alone. So Rolla activists are stepping up
Abide in Love is a group of 50 activists who help detainees contact their families and provide small acts of comfort and kindness, as the Phelps County Jail has become part ICE holding facility.

MacArthur Park today wasn’t law enforcement. It was political theater.
No arrests. No crime ring. Just troops, agents and fear.
Kids at summer camps were rushed indoors as helicopters and soldiers swarmed.
The message? Intimidate immigrants. Children became collateral in the show.

You rock Mackenzie Scott!
Just a reminder that while her ex nonstop soils himself in public with tasteless displays of wealth and look-at-me, thirsty nonsense, Mackenzie Scott has given away close to $20 billion to 1,600 charities, no strings attached and without any need for recognition.

Warnock: A budget is not just a fiscal document. A budget is a moral document. Show me your budget and I'll show you who you think matters and who doesn't. And if this awful budget were an EKG, it would suggest that our nation has a heart problem and is in need of moral surgery
