The "Inside CECOT" report finally aired on CBS tonight. Sharyn Alfonsi recorded a new beginning and ending to incorporate the additions Bari Weiss wanted. But the report itself remains the same as it was on the day Weiss delayed it. So, here's the backstory on what happened...

I’m disappointed to read this post from a sitting DNC Vice-Chair. Our communities are experiencing an invasion and a violation of human rights in MN.
South Minneapolis in particular has been the epicenter of this pain. Let’s contribute to actual fundraisers helping keep families afloat.

I work with state parties every single day. There are only a handful of national leaders who actually raise real money for the year organizing state parties do--Ken Martin (dnc chair), Simon Rosenberg (Hopium), Sen. Warren and Actblue. Come for Simon and you come for all of us.
I'm not interested in arguing with the good people of Minnesota, on the front lines, doing the hard work of protecting our democracy. I've worked hard to bring your bravery and courage to the world in recent weeks on Hopium.
But attacks like this are false, defamatory, and need to end. 1/

it's 100% what they expected. Conservatives think of Minneapolis' white people as scared of our neighbors, especially the immigrants. But that's because *they're* scared, not because we are. They cannot imagine being in a city with such diversity and enjoying it.
To those saying “nuh-uh, ICE picked Minneapolis because they WANTED the city to rise up as one against them” -
no, pretty sure they expected a scattering of blue-haired protesters they could easily crush for content + tacit support from other whites, not the organized total resistance they got.

ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

Do you know why you've heard of the Boston Massacre? Because in 1768, when the British military began occupying Boston, Bostonians syndicated a "Journal of Occurrences" in newspapers around the country to help Americans understand what abuse of power looks like. By the 1770s, readers understood.

I'm not sure the author of this piece ever worked a service job before, because getting the authority to say "get the fuck out right now" to a visitor that's annoying the shit out of people is one of the rare joys of a service job
The general theme of this commentary is "stop asking MN companies to ban ICE from their properties." The argument is that enforcing the ban would fall to individual low-paid employees, who would be placed in danger.

you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.
