"If the standard for airing a story becomes, 'the government must agree to be interviewed,' then the government effectively gains control over the 60 Minutes broadcast. We go from being an investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state."

Speaking of Christmas: In the Bible, Jesus and his parents were refugees from a murderous political regime, forcing them to seek safety in a foreign land…no one in DHS or this administration should have their “Christianity” accepted at face value. No matter how many crosses they flaunt
Commentary: It feels like Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino is stealing Christmas from many Chicagoland immigrants, indifferent to their fear and suffering.
Paco Amador and Daniel Yang: Gregory Bovino is trying to steal Chicago’s Christmas with raids
Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino’s self-proclaimed mission in Chicago appeared devoid of the mercy and love central to the Gospel.

NEW: The Trump-Vance White House has falsely accused an ally of Pope Leo — Sr. Norma Pimentel — of illegal activity tied to migrant aid, and cut off all federal funding to Catholic Charities in Texas.
Church leaders say it’s a targeted, political reprisal against Pope Leo and the Catholic Church.

Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley — praised by Pope Leo as an “agent of hope” — now faces a six-year federal funding ban. Church leaders say it’s a vendetta by the Trump-Vance White House.

Something I have to reiterate is that you are being straight up lied to about trans people and our healthcare on an unfathomable scale, this instance reporting is already being torn to shreds by other people commenting, but the frequency of this kind of reporting is astonishing, it's neverending.
You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.
