Happy 72nd Birthday to Ruby Bridges, who at the age of 6 desegregated the New Orleans public schools.
She’s younger than 30 senators and our last two presidents—and only 7 years older than Barack Obama.
The past isn’t past.

Chicago teen shares his experience in ICE detention centers:
I am 18 years old and I just graduated from high school in Chicago. I was in ICE detention for 2 months and 10 days. They kept me in solitary for 2 days for no reason, alone in a room with just a toilet. They never let us go outside.

The body of a migrant who died at an El Paso immigration detention center was sent to a military hospital rather than the county medical examiner who investigated two previous deaths at the facility — and concluded that one of them was a homicide rather than a suicide.
ICE bypasses El Paso medical examiner for autopsy on migrant

No Congressional authorization, no public debate, no clearly stated goal, no casus belli, and a gradual ramp up rather than big opening, so many haven’t noticed (or deny it). But this attack removes the ambiguity.
