Remember when the US military destroyed a hospital in Afganistan, then blamed the Afghans? (See 2015 Kunduz hospital airstrike). It’s our job as journalists to report facts we’ve verified, not be state mouthpieces.

Below is today’s lead headline at @latimes . The Times simply accepts what terrorist organization Hamas said even though it’s false. This both sides journalism is factually wrong. A true headline would say “Rage spreads over Gaza hospital blast amid false narrative from Hamas.”

Rep. Paul Gosar is doubling down on his staff's racist animated video of him murdering AOC, saying she "is representative of the plague of illegal immigration." And @GOPLeader is still silent. The GOP is cool with this.

“For at least its first 80 years, the Los Angeles Times was an institution deeply rooted in white supremacy and committed to promoting the interests of the city’s industrialists and landowners.“ Remarkable reckoning.

Alex Padilla is the first U.S. Senator to put literal sweat into the work of immigration reform. It's past time for Democrats to prioritize immigration protections for the people who keep our country from starving.

Migrant farm workers put food on our tables & kept grocery stores stocked throughout a global pandemic. Their work is essential. Today, I'm joining workers with @UFWupdates and @ufwfoundation in the fields for a day in their boots.
