On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamillaโ€™s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being โ€œserved food that contained worms.โ€

A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees.

The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasnโ€™t for detainees โ€” it was for the staff.

Deleting Donald Trump, Letter By Letter The name of this blight on America should only survive on buildings as a warning

โ€œCan we agree this convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, likely child rapist (see the Epstein files), virulent racist, anti-democratic authoritarianโ€ฆshould not have his name attached to any public building once our beloved country is rid of him?โ€

Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency.

She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

A Reckoning for the Religious Right How the Marriage of Church and State Birthed Bad Religion in the US

โ€œThere is a reckoning coming for the Religious Right. The hypocrisy is too blatant, too bold, and too on-the-nose. Evangelical Christians may have finally reached the height of political power. But in doing so, they sold their souls.โ€

The Epstein files reveal that a vast global conspiracy actually exists โ€“ sort of The documents confirm what many have long assumed: elites live by their own special rules and codes of immunity

Epstein and the right-wing promoted QAnon as a cover for their own international pedophile and criminal ring.

Trump is a part of it.

Toddler hospitalized with respiratory failure was returned to ICE detention without prescribed medication, lawsuit says The 18-month-old was sent back to a South Texas facility after days in intensive care with severe respiratory distress, according to a federal lawsuit.

NEW: A baby held in immigration detention became so sick, she had to be rushed to a hospital in severe respiratory distress.

โ€œShe was at the brink of dying,โ€ a lawyer told me.

But the girl didnโ€™t go home after her 10-day hospital stay; instead, ICE put her and her mother back in lock up at Dilley.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.

Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.

Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and sheโ€™s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.

Get them out!

Walz demands DHS stop detaining Minnesota children In a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Walz demanded details about how many Minnesota kids are in detention facilities.

Theyโ€™re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas.

For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare.
