Several studies find that the Gaza Health ministry numbers themselves are an undercount. And one should not discount the motivation of Hamas to undercount the number of casualties either, due to 10/7 attack

Ralph Nader has been covering this issue extensively

If only ICE were trained better! Make them wear bodycams. . .

Local and state police are trained and wear cameras, yet police violence continues.

Remarkable how this unabashedly racist formulation endures in 2026

Erasure of Working class brown and black folks

Thank you for the thoughtful article telling this family’s story and humanizing Lucia. I hope there’s growing support to shut the detention center in El Paso down.

The breakdown of detainees who have convictions of violent offenses (it’s small) doesn’t fit Noem’s narrative. studies have shown that the foreign born commit crimes at a lower rate than native born citizens. But that fundamental truth is lost in the false conflation of immigration and criminality

CBP union was a very early supporter of Trump when he ran in 2015. Significant white supremacist alignment between them

Wow! Thanks so much

Accurately describing a cold blooded, unjustified homicide committed by the state is the danger to be wary of, not the fact of an armed goon squad of federal agents doing the killing. Homan sounds like those who say the use of the word “genocide” is the problem, not the violence occurring in Gaza

I can’t find it online now, but the renowned historian Gerald Horne’s glib and hilarious criticism of TCW is hilarious

Odd to emphasize the legal limits on domestic law enforcement abuse when ICE and CBP have been deployed throughout the country in mass deportation effort to sow fear. Plus natl guard deployed domestically for non sensical reasons. US aggression and violence abroad is not unrelated to this

Eloquent, powerful words Kelly. Thank you

Incredible lack of preparation and response from law enforcement, especially considering all the chatter and build up before the riot

This is true in the broad sense, but TPS is not predicated on entering the country lawfully. Immigration law is quite complicated, but one can qualify for TPS irrespective of how one entered the country.

Once at a casino on the old strip a guy was passed out, toes up, on the floor and nobody cared. Waitress stepping over him saying “cocktails!”
On that same trip a dead man was found in a hotel room. Vegas is unique

Sounds like that One Battle After Another movie

The way the govt has restricted pro Palestine speech and protest is really gross. I don’t think most ppl in the U.S. realize this
