After ICE killed Renée Good and Alex Pretti, the Trump administration tried to tell us we didn’t see what we saw with our own eyes. Shane Snow’s essay breaks down how governments manipulate media to rewrite reality—and how to spot it before it can take root.

Crockett: "Now my colleagues want to be the protectors of girls & women. I didn't hear them screaming this when Renee Good was killed in the middle of the street by the same people the vast majority of you just voted to give more money to. It was a lot of crickets, including about the Esptein files"

I haven’t seen it. I hope you don’t, either. But let's be real about what's going on here. My purpose today is less to highlight this inane excuse for a film than to talk about its real excuse.

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers. And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate. Today it roars in Minneapolis and around the country — at the jack-booted thugs occupying our cities.

Dear DNC: Not only are progressives winning primaries, they are winning general elections all over the place. GET IN LINE WITH YOUR BASE!! Stop worrying about what centrist or disaffected middle people are doing. The votes are there for excellent pro-people policy. Get with the program!

It's always about the messenger and never about the message with them. It's why they hate Obamacare but love the ACA.

ICE wrote a memo to get around warrantless entries into homes, and they knew it was so illegal they kept it secret until a whistleblower blew the scheme open.

This ICE agent and the man he’s accusing of not being a US citizen have the same damn accent. If this were a movie, this scene would be on the cutting room floor.
