These people are truly evil.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

AOC making her case why she should be president (not directly, but may as well be). We need her moral clarity and intelligence in the White House. An Ocasio-Cortez White House would mean sanity returning to the United States.

Those apartments were being cleared out weeks earlier.

👇🎯 @willbunch.bsky.social is right. The reason all the awful & illegal things keep happening in 🇺🇸 politics - from 1865 to now - is because there are never any actual legal, personal, & professional consequences for the awful & illegal things happening in 🇺🇸 politics. That must change this time.
