My latest: an investigation into Wichita's winter shelter operations and how this year presented unique challenges, resulting in some unhoused people feeling dehumanized. One volunteer nurse said “people are treated like inmates instead of patrons.”

does this remind you. of anything.
During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. https://t.co/c9C7Zm4wsn

I gasped when I saw the front page of this decision; Judge Young includes a postcard sent to him asking "Trump has pardons and tanks ... what do you have?" He responds "Alone, I have nothing but my sense of duty. Together, We the People ... have our magnificent Constitution."
BREAKING: Judge William Young, a Reagan appointee, delivers the most scathing legal rebuke of the Trump era, ruling that Trump and his cabinet illegally targeted pro-Palestinian students for deportation to "strike fear" into First Amendment protesters. https://t.co/i7UCg2A429

Mahmoud Khalil is a legal resident, with an American citizen wife and infant. To be deported—much less to a country he has no connection to—for nonviolent protest against a genocide isn’t just un-American, it’s unhinged. https://t.co/4rKxYIsHOA

“It is no surprise that the Trump administration continues to retaliate against me for my exercise of free speech," Khalil, a former Columbia University grad student, said in a statement.

To be clear, this isn't over anything remotely inflammatory about the shooting itself, but a mere suggestion of the shooter's politics. Accurate statement or not (on a comedy show, mind you), this is a genuinely baffling response, and blatant kowtowing to authoritarianism.
ABC is pulling #JimmyKimmelLive "indefinitely" after Nexstar Media, one of the nation’s largest TV station owners, said it would stop airing the program in response to Kimmel’s remarks about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. https://t.co/xRsUNDjKkj

In the dead of night, while most Americans were sleeping, the Trump admin ripped 180+ kids out of their beds in foster homes and shelters & loaded them into vans headed for deportation flights to Guatemala. It took lawyers around the country working through the night to stop them
BREAKING: A federal judge has *blocked* the Trump administration from abruptly deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children — perhaps within a matter of hours — granting an emergency restraining order after advocates called the plan illegal + dangerous. https://t.co/Hetxac7fxH
