🧵Missed diagnoses, delayed treatment and poor medical care are driving record deaths in ICE custody.

@kolyncheang.bsky.social and I spent months investigating the deaths of ICE detainees across the US. Over and over again, we found lapses in treatment that proved fatal.

Just so we're all clear, this is a war crime and would be punishable by life or death under U.S. law.
Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

War is when the country most needs journalism relentlessly focused on reporting the facts, without fear or favor. Without it, Americans would not have learned of My Lai, or the truth about Watergate. That is just what Hegseth fears, and what Trump's determined to prevent by coopting the press.
Pete Hegseth wants to live in a world in which the US military can drop bombs on scores of children and face no serious media scrutiny for it. His vile claim that he can't wait for David Ellison to run CNN shows he pines for oligarchic control of media.

Raging at Media, Pete Hegseth Just Said the Quiet Part Out Loud
He wants “patriotic” coverage of the Iran War. He doesn’t understand: in a democracy, coverage that asks difficult questions of the government is itself “patriotic.”

Declaring that no quarter will be given is straightforwardly prohibited under international humanitarian law.

When done to threaten an adversary, the declaration itself amounts to a war crime.

It's weird. I can oppose both Israel and synagogue shootings for the same reason: killing people in houses of worship (or hospitals, or schools, or day cares, or homes) is evil and nobody should do it. It's actually really easy to say "don't kill a bunch of people in a house of worship."
