Pregnant immigrants in Minnesota have been postponing their abortions, skipping aftercare, and delaying birth control visits and urgent cancer screening follow-ups to avoid coming in contact with federal immigration agents.

NEW: “CBS Evening News” producer Alicia Hastey sends a bombshell farewell note: Stories are “evaluated not just on their journalistic merit but on whether they conform to a shifting set of ideological expectations.”

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

1. In Washington yesterday, at the National Prayer Breakfast, the president actually took credit for the Bible being a bestseller. “In 2025, more copies of the Holy Bible were sold in the United States than at any time in the last 100 years,” Donald Trump said.

DHS repeatedly said that an aggressive apartment raid in Chicago last fall was prompted by intel on a gang takeover. New documents show the real story behind the raid was to target alleged squatters — with the landlord's blessing.

Just like with Kilmer Abrego Garcia, the biggest sin any targeted immigrant can commit is winning battles — legal or PR battles — against the government, and they just won’t let those losses go

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

in trying to understand what makes ICE and CBP so dangerous right now, it is tempting to imagine some new lack of training or experience or professionalism—and not grapple with the truth that a white nationalist movement has put more power and force behind their existing mission

America really does have a five‑alarm fire in the White House: a president who openly says the only authority that can stop him is “my own morality. My own mind,” while standing on a record of criminal convictions, financial scams, and armed resource grabs abroad

"Obey or die." That's the story.

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE: "No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested". "Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

A federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration from freezing about $10 billion in federal funds for child care grants and family assistance earmarked for five Democratic-led states over what it had said were concerns around fraud.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Hayes: The president was asked should they be sharing evidence—his response was no, because Minnesota's corrupt. Ellison: I will point out no president that I've ever heard of received a $400 million plane from a foreign country trying to curry favor with him, crypto deals, golf courses.

To paraphrase Margaret Atwood…”men are afraid that women will laugh at them, women are afraid that men will kill them”

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

Garcia uses his opening statement during Comer's Minnesota fraud hearing to point out that "some of the worst fraud and corruption is actually found at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue" and that the administration is punishing innocent kids

This is such a monumental loss to information history, journalism & education. Hard to imagine we're living through this period in our country's history. Dismantling all that's good about America brick by brick.

The destruction doesn't make for a photo-op like tearing down the East Wing of the White House or bulldozing the Rose Garden, but it's every bit as bad. Generations of American children learned to spell and count, learned the Preamble to the Constitution, from watching shows produced by the CPB.

Five years ago tomorrow, thousands of the president's supporters stormed the Capitol. Trump has since dubbed Jan. 6 a "day of love." Scroll through @propublica.org's massive trove of parler videos -- organized by time and location -- from that day and judge for yourself:
