Jamal Khashoggi's widow, Hanan Elatr Khashoggi: "Try as much as you can to save democracy and freedom of the press and speech in America. Do not be a copy of a Middle East dictatorship. We look to you as a role model of Western civilization—please maintain it."

I think he still snuck in a few snarky comments. Classless.

I went home to Southeast L.A. to cover the immigration raids there. And this week I've covered the raids in my adopted home of NC. Nothing--and I mean NOTHING--will give you hope like speaking to immigrant organizers and locals fighting back.

The women who were victims of Epstein should not be afraid of these "powerful men." These "powerful men," should be scared shitless..of these victims. Why? Because the victims represent ALL of us, and ALL of us...don't spend so much of 1/100th of a second...fearful. We're f*cking pissed.
