One of the most unexpected media events of this moment has been entertainment (Teen Vogue, People) & trade (Wired) publications accurately reporting the news & cogently calling out fascist falsehoods, while our Serious News Sources (NYT, WP, WSJ) avoid truth or sane-washes it, and publishes pablum.
Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines.

This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.

Thinking of my nieces, my little cousins, my godchildren, my friends' kids, and how the natural thing for an adult to want to do is protect a child. It takes a lot of dedication to losing that instinct and working against basic humanity to do something like this. This is depravity.
This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

Renee Good was shot 3 times by ICE

The first two shots were non lethal. One to her left forearm & another to right breast

The final shot entered the left side of her head & exited the right side

He didn’t have to keep shooting. He was out of the vehicle’s path before the kill shot

That’s murder

Soulless ghouls.
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

If Dems don’t impeach Noem they really are pathetic
🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

You only love law enforcement when they're going after black, brown, immigrants, that kind of folk, right?“

First of all, it's ridiculous that ICE is arresting people for not carrying their papers. Second of all, how exactly is a child supposed to prove they're a citizen?
Heartbreaking cruelty visited upon children in our name

I get why non-Trump voters might worry Europeans will hate them for the Greenland thing, but I think that concern is overblown. That would be like if Muslims in the U.S. were subjected to a tidal wave of vitriol after 9/11 just because they shared a relig—hang on, my producer is screaming in my ear

DOGE breached SSA data and passed it to election truthers‼️
Last year a whistleblower said DOGE had illegally accessed a Social Security database. SSA now acknowledges it's true—& that DOGE employees had secret agreement w/ unidentified political advocacy group to use SocSec data to help overturn election results. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The president encounters a binder clip for the first time, then talks about it for a while.

Remember when Joe Biden had a raspy voice and every major news organization created a 10-person Biden Is Old investigative team?
Trump: "Whoo. I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker. That could've dome some damage but you know what? I wouldn't have shown the pain. I would've gone back. Boy did you hear that? That was nasty. But I would not have shown the pain. I would've acted like nothing happens as my finger fell off."

24 convictions? Wow. I heard about a guy who had 34 convictions, all for felonies.
Trump as he flips through mugshots: "24 convictions. 24 times! Convicted. Not charges. These are convictions."
