More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

It’s been sad this year watching how the White House press corps refuses to back each other up. Here a female journalist is insulted and denigrated and the next male reporter just moves on to a new question. You’re all in this together, folks. Time & again, they won’t stand up for their colleagues.
Trump to a female reporter who tries to ask him about his plans for Memphis: "Quiet. You're really obnoxious ... I'm not gonna talk to you until I call on you."

The media lost its MIND when Obama tried to make some small changes to the press pool system. Now Trump is quite openly rendering it into a North Korea-esque state-media system and ... has a single journalist or outlet stood up to protest?

This has been the golden rule for fascists and racists since time began:
Identify the parts of your nation that are crumbling (on your watch) and blame it on people who don’t look like you.
What is rare (and uniquely dangerous) is to find these people running the government.

This is not state neutrality. It is itself a clear message to impressionable children that their own existence, and the existence of their families, is a taboo topic. Other kids hetero families, of course, can be freely discussed. They're normal and fine.

This is serious, rigorous analysis and it should change the way the media has been covering these protests. These were, in the aggregate, *massive.*
Based on crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don't have data yet, it looks like roughly 4-6 million people protested Trump across the U.S. yesterday. That's nearly 2% of the U.S. pop!
Mobilized anti-Trump resistance is exceeding 2017 levels

Our unofficial estimate is that around 4 million people attended a protest event yesterday. Anti-Trump resistance is outpacing 2017.
