Susan Collins hands Trump the 50th vote against free and fair elections
When it comes to free and fair elections, Collins is as conservative and anti-voting rights as they come.
Collins stood silently in the Oval Office clutching a red MAGA hat as Trump told lies about our elections and repeated his call for the federal government to take over vote counting in certain parts of the country. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/susa...

What I Saw at a Maternity Ward in Kenya After the U.S. Cut Off Food and Foreign Aid
Photographs tell a story of two mothers determined to help their babies gain enough weight to leave the hospital โ only to face little to no food again.
A maternity ward doctor donated his own blood during surgery to keep a pregnant patient alive.
One woman gained fewer than 10 pounds over her entire pregnancy.
Another collapsed and had seizures during labor.

How a Planned Disney World Vacation Turned Into Four Months in Immigration Detention

DHS Opens a Billion-Dollar Tab With Palantir
โIf you are interested in helping shape and deliver the next chapter of Palantirโs work across DHS, please reach out,โ a Palantir executive wrote to employees about the massive purchasing agreement.
This agreement allows DHS agencies like CBP & ICE to essentially skip the competitive bidding process.
Palantir's software is considered dangerous primarily because its technology facilitates mass surveillance & enables targeting which erodes civil liberties.

Amid Mass ICE Arrests, Trump Pardon Recipient Juan Orlando Hernรกndez Given Special Treatment
After the former Honduran president was pardoned, ICE dropped its detainer on him, and he was whisked away to a luxury hotel in New York City.
Rather than turn former Honduran President Hernรกndez over to immigration officials when he was released from prison just four years into a 45-year sentence for allowing traffickers to export more than 400 tons of cocaine to the U.S, the Trump administration paid to transport him to a posh NYC hotel.

They raided the jailed children to steal their letters.
The problem, in federal officials' minds, wasn't confining children in prison-camp conditions; it was that the children could tell the public about it.

Terrorizing, kidnapping, killing people AND wrecking their local economy. That's what Trump has done to an American city. It's obscene.
