Dear YouTube,
If videos documenting what ice is doing to Americans are "too violent" to be monetizable, what does that say about what ICE is doing to Americans?
ICE and CBP in Evanston, Illinois. This cannot be normalized.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

It was extra special to see so many kids out for Halloween in their fantastic costumes this year. It’s been a tough 9 months & it was a great reminder to take breaks and experience joy.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Welcome to our new normal. Republicans are not being told to care about the demolition at the White House, so they’re not upset like they were with the Cracker Barrel logo.
"Bots or likely bots authored 44.5% of X posts mentioning Cracker Barrel in the 24 hours after the new logo gained attention ... that number rose to 49% among posts calling for a boycott." Then Republicans jumped on, including the President. Great internet we made here www.wsj.com/articles/bot...
