CBS Pulled a “60 Minutes” Story Because the White House Refused to Comment — That’s a Veto on Journalism

Maybe ordinary people fighting, and not waiting for some savior, is the way to go? As that community organizer said, "WE are the ones we've been waiting for."

She went public with the abuse, and was deported the very next day.
Her lawyer says she had a stay on her deportation order
They disappeared her so she couldn’t speak out.
Silvia Reyna Mendoza deserves justice.
