Reminder: the financial situation for rural Alaska public radio stations remains dire. These stations provide vital, even lifesaving info. For example, KOTZ is the only radio for Northwest Arctic Borough, which is larger than the state of Maine. Please donate if you can. #AlaskaSky

Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."

The press has become part of the problem. They’ve been a growing part of the problem for the last decade. Fucking change course NOW or get out of the way so those who ARE trying to do the Fourth Estate’s job PROPERLY can fucking do it.
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

Trump sold his campaign of cruelty against immigrants by saying he'd focus on criminals. Now it's clear that he's persecuting hard-working people who make our economy work. Polls show Trump's immigration policies are vastly unpopular.
Gallup has new polling on immigration. Topline findings:
-Americans hate Trump's immigration policy (35% approve, 62% disapprove)
-Share who say immigration is a "good thing" for the country just hit an all-time high (79%)
