Excellent and courageous piece in the Guardian about the effects ICE’s practices on Latino communities. With contributions from me and my brother, Ronaldo. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
hate to speculate but as someone who grew up in SE Houston, it wouldn’t surprise me if the petro-refinery skyline around Channelview, TX where Jalen Hurts grew up didn’t have a role in this. Exacerbated by long distance travel (altitude) and heavy physical activity of course.
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs. Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played the game without having slept. Crazy.

Masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on Friday, setting olive groves on fire and slinging rocks. Caught in the attack was Post photographer Heidi Levine. “They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times,” Levine said. https://wapo.st/4yt6dHY

this is how you have to treat these guys. with genuine contempt. your genuine contempt makes their smarmy fake contempt look weak and inauthentic. it immediately exposes their game. these guys are just losers who have sworn revenge for every humiliation. humiliate them again

worth also noting that both the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti happened in her district, and on top of the obviously racist targeting of her personally this is also an attempt to deny the people of Minneapolis their democratically elected representative
The federal investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar aims to build a case to strip her of her U.S. citizenship and ultimately deport her, according to U.S. officials and others familiar with the probe on.wsj.com/4zBOcZ9

WOW. Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, among others, "chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record of public service. ... The attacks against Ms. Comans were based entirely on false information" and many officials "knew [they] were untrue."
JUST IN: Mag. judge in EDVA clears former FEMA CFO Mary Comans of claims she directed tens of millions in payments for housing undocumented immigrants in NYC. Judge: Statements by Musk & others were 'little more than state-sanctioned intimidation.' Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/28...

WaPo has failed to cover the Guard’s secretive Phase 2 when there’s a huge opportunity for real investigative journalism - or at least asking their Federal sources some tough questions. The public has almost no information about what the Guard’s operational plans are. In fact . . 9/
