Hispanic journalist in Atlanta detained by ICE speaks out Mario Guevara tells the AJC about his month behind bars, and his once positive feelings toward Donald Trump.

“I’m plainly convinced that my situation in this ICE jail is direct retaliation for my coverage,” Mario Guevara told @ajc.com in an exclusive interview from the Folkston, Georgia ICE detention center where he is currently detained, despite a judge's bail order. “I haven’t committed any crimes.”

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

Opinion | As Trump's inaugurated, MLK’s question ‘Where Do We Go From Here?’ rules the day Donald Trump's being inaugurated on the day we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. feels like a cruel irony.
