Eighteen cases of COVID-19 were also identified. U.S. Rep. Veronica Escobar on Friday visited the 5,000-bed tent facility on the Fort Bliss Army base and said she saw many "chronic issues."

I’m on my apartment balcony to illustrate how Donald Trump’s corruption and contempt for the rule both threatens our democracy *and* affects our everyday lives.

Behind me is the Gateway project, a $16 billion effort to build a new rail tunnel across the Hudson. ...

It only took them 12 months to build massive concentration camps all over the USA. You’d think there would be more uproar, but no. No one cares unless it’s in their backyard.

I remember when my mom, who’s in her 70s, and I heard Kamala Harris announce her care-at-home plan. We were so excited. She even explained it was cheaper than hospital care. To us, it felt like someone was actually planning to make healthcare better.

Now look where we are.

It’s not like Trump supporters are big newspaper readers.

So what exactly is Jeff Bezos’ plan for readership and profit now that the Post is leaning into Trump world?

UPDATE: Alberto Castañeda Mondragón suffered 8 skull fractures and brain hemorrhages after a severe beating by ICE agents.

He has no criminal record.

As of now, there is STILL no federal investigation.

For a few days, he forgot he has a daughter due to the severity of his brain injuries.

Epstein was in and out of Russia every few months according to his travel documents, but Mandelson was partying in nightclubs in St Petersburg and regularly in Moscow.

How did our intelligence services fail to pick this up? Or were their reports and investigations suppressed?

Via Stateline: President Donald Trump’s calls to “nationalize” elections capped a year of efforts by his administration to exert authority over state-run elections. The demands have some state and local election officials fearing — and preparing for — a tumultuous year. https://ow.ly/R5TC50Ya0xR

ICE's abuse isn't new. Black and brown folks have been raising the alarm for decades about state-sanctioned violence by law enforcement. What we need now is to actually dismantle those systems.

I’ve been following Greg Bovino and Border Patrol around for months. Here’s some of my footage (and thoughts).
Following the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minnesota, "Commander at Large" Gregory Bovino was reassigned away from his leadership role in the operation.

Journalist Amanda Moore notes the violent culture and widespread fear he helped create won't be so easily removed.
