They are pulling the 60 Minutes article about CECOT off of YouTube, but you can still find it HERE:
Youtube is pulling these for copyright claims, but it's still up on archive.org:
And now someone has uploaded a version that wasn't filmed off a TV.

There's also the torrent link there, which is probably the fastest way to download the 60 Minutes segment on CECOT if you want to save the file locally to your computer.

I keep trying to remind myself that all of this - banning healthcare for Trans kids, renaming the Kennedy Center, the delusional rant last night - is at least in-part an attempt to "flood the zone" for the Epstein files (legally, they have to be released tomorrow), but wow.

To all the young people in New York and across our country who count on gender-affirming care:

I won't let this administration come for you, your doctors, or your lifesaving health care. 

Your health care is still legal and protected. 

I'll always fight for you.

Somewhere on the internet I saw someone say that Vessel from Sleep Token and Hozier are fae from different courts, and clearly yes.

Hey, would it be considered both racial and political gerrymandering if folks who live at 38th and Post are in the same congressional district as white rural farmers an hour and a half away? Because that's preeeety blatant, even for this administration.
I can't tell for sure but I think the new Indiana congressional map they proposed got me Near Northwest Riverside - (the hood)

in the same district with MARTINSVILLE (KKKville) 🤦🏿‍♂️😂😂😭😭
Republicans ain't even pretending no more 😂

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message.

“Fight for us”

“Fight for working class Americans”

“Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty”

5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message.

“Nah”

Not to dunk on People, since they seem to be meeting the moment better than most, but PEOPLE MAGAZINE is doing more actual reporting than most major media outlets.
The NY Times and WaPo may be lost causes but holy shite look at PEOPLE out here absolutely killing it with 100% unvarnished truths 🌟

Indiana is calling a special session for illegal mid-cycle redistricting. 40% of Hoosiers are Dems but we've been gerrymandered into only have 2/9 Congressional reps, but apparently Mike Braun thinks we shouldn't have any.

I hope Spartz, Baird, and Shreve are terrified.

I love the Portland protests so much!!
Outside of Portland's ICE facility last night, Kenny from South Park got married to a unicorn.

The betrothed Portland couple said they decided to get hitched on site to bring some joy and fun to a dark time.

"People can be fun loving people and still protest."

I don't think people really appreciate how much of an insult is when Midwesterners deny you food. Chicago restaurants locking their doors on you? I cannot think of a bigger regional f-you.

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”
