“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

You can fiercely love this country while completely despising and actively opposing this President, his corrupt regime, and complicit party.
I do, and I'm in the vast majority.

We watched then. Very impressed and, frankly, jealous of Canada.
Just over a year ago, Carney was on the Daily Show before he threw his hat in to run for leader of the Liberals (aka Prime Minister).
The interview holds up really well. I speculate a lot of Americans didn’t pay attention then.
But it’s a great interview. Still worth watching.

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is:
In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.

Just so we understand correctly, MAGA isn’t okay with an ICU Nurse being a lawful gun owner with permission to carry, but they are okay with Domestic terrorist double murderer Rittenhouse crossing state lines with an AR-15 so he could kill people with, which he did. Got it.

This comes just after the president publicly demanded that ICE should start showing the public how terrible the people are who they're grabbing and arresting.

The Hmong fought on the US/SVN side during the war in Vietnam. A reputation of skilled, strong fighters.
When the south fell to the north, Hmong were given refuge and residency in America by the US government.
Now they must hide from the US government within America.

This week, I spoke with a St. Paul woman who told me ICE came to her door and asked her to report on her "Asian neighbors."
The Hmong community, the large majority of whom are in this country legally for decades now, is in hiding.

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away.
Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

How do you just “uncover” over a million Epstein documents out of nowhere like they were misplaced in a desk drawer? You don’t, and when accountability gets slow-walked like this, it usually means the same powerful people involved have enough power to force the DOJ to delay it.
