The party of “pro-life” and “family values” is holding nearly 600 children at Dilley with worms in the food, algae in the water, and kids on suicide watch they’re pretending don’t exist.
55 children held over 100 days. Court documents. Their own data.
The Flores agreement says 20 days. Republicans call it “a tool of the left.”
DHS says “being in detention is a choice.”
A 13-year-old cut her wrists. Staff had withheld her antidepressants.
Defend this. I’ll wait.

CNN’s Dana Bash to Border Czar Tom Homan:
“Are ICE agents moving into American airports tomorrow?
Homan: “Yes. I’m working on the plan. We’ll execute tomorrow.
Bash: “Are ICE agents even remotely trained to handle airport security?”
Homan: “ICE agents receive high-level training.”
TSA agents complete 120 hours of classroom training plus on-the-job certification specifically for explosive detection, threat assessment, and passenger screening.
ICE agents are trained for immigration enforcement and detention.
They are not the same thing.
Homan is currently working on the plan.
To deploy tomorrow.
For airports handling 2.5 million passengers daily.
Republicans blocked TSA funding seven times.
Now they’re replacing TSA with immigration enforcement.
At every airport in America.
Starting tomorrow.
Senator Slotkin warned about armed federal agents at civilian checkpoints.
Dana Bash asked the only question that matters.
Homan couldn’t answer it.
Never stop connecting the dots.

We honor the life of Lawrence Brooks, who passed away at the remarkable age of 112-the oldest known WWII veteran. Drafted into the U.S. Army in 1940 at 31, he served with the segregated 91st Engineer Battalion and was deployed to the Pacific, where he spent the war in Australia, New Guinea, and the Philippines. There, he played a vital role behind the front lines-driving trucks across difficult terrain, cooking for officers, and helping construct the roads, bridges, and airstrips that supported Allied operations.
After returning home to New Orleans, Lawrence built a full life-working for decades as a forklift operator, raising five children, and watching his family grow through generations. His life, spanning more than a century, stood as a powertul example of dedication, resilience, and quiet strength.
May he be remembered with honor-God bless Lawrence Brooks, and thank you for your service.

#OnThisDay in 1981, Michael Donald, a 19-year-old Black man, was lynched by the Ku Klux Klan in Mobile, Alabama. His murder is considered one of the last lynchings in the United States.
His mother, Beulah Mae Donald, became known for her relentless pursuit of justice — her actions helped bankrupt the #KuKluxKlan in the state of #Alabama.

Wilma Rudolph turned determination into history, becoming the first American woman to win three gold medals in a single Olympic Games. Overcoming adversity, she ran with strength, grace, and purpose, inspiring generations to believe in what is possible.
During Women’s History Month, we honor her legacy and the doors she opened through excellence and perseverance.

This is one of the most unlikely friendship stories the internet has ever produced.
In 2014, a writer named Matt Stopera had his phone stolen from a bar in New York City, USA. He bought a new one, assumed the old one was gone forever, and moved on with his life.
About a year later, he noticed something strange. Photos he had never taken were appearing in his camera roll. A man he had never seen before. Standing next to an orange tree. Smiling at the camera. Then more photos. The same man. Different orange trees. More smiling.
Matt had no idea who this person was or how his photos were getting there. Then he realised. His old stolen phone had somehow made its way to China. It was still connected to his account. Every photo the new owner took was quietly syncing to Matt's camera roll, thousands of miles away.
Matt wrote a short article about it. Just a curious story. He was not expecting much.
The article was translated into Chinese and published on Weibo, China's largest social media platform. Within hours it had millions of views. Chinese internet users launched a search to find the man in the photos. They called him Brother Orange. The hashtag to find him became one of the biggest trending topics on the entire platform overnight.
Two days later, they found him.
His name was Li Hongjun. He was a restaurant owner from a small city called Meizhou in southern China. He had bought the phone second-hand from a market, not knowing where it had come from. When he heard that the internet was looking for him his first reaction was fear. He had done nothing wrong but he had seen what happened when millions of strangers decided to find someone.
He came forward anyway.
Matt flew to China to meet him. A full media circus followed them everywhere. Cars drove through the streets with both of their faces printed on the side. They took mud baths together while a crowd of journalists filmed from the edge. Li had never been friends with anyone who was not Chinese. Matt did not speak a word of Mandarin. They communicated through a translator and somehow understood each other immediately.
Li later visited Matt in the United States. They went to Las Vegas. Li tried string cheese for the first time.
They have been close friends for over ten years. A documentary about their friendship was released in 2025.
"One of the lessons I learned," Matt said, "is never judge a man by his selfies. In his selfies he looks so serious. In real life he was just the warmest, funniest, very smart guy."

I have a friend in Cuba and what they just reported should end careers in Washington.
Every single patient on a ventilator in their hospital died tonight.
The power went out. The ventilators stopped.
This isn't a rare incident anymore. Cuba's grid has collapsed 3 times THIS MONTH.
The hospital staff told them they've had more emergency deaths in the last 30 days than in all of last year combined.
A patient with leukemia at a Havana hospital told reporters: "Without fuel or affordable transportation, life has only gotten harder. We are fighting every day."
NICU babies are on bare minimum power right now.
Dialysis patients are playing Russian roulette with every blackout.
Cuba has received ZERO oil in 3 months.
That's not a shortage. That's a blockade.
The US blocked a Russian rescue mission — 730,000 barrels of oil heading to Cuba — turned it away.
Then the official story went: "We're sending $6 million in humanitarian aid."
$6 million in aid.
930,000 barrels of oil blocked.
You can't fix ventilators with $6 million when the grid is dark.
And Trump's own words from March 6, 2026:
"Cuba will fall. After 50 years, this is the cherry on top of the cake."
The people dying in hospitals tonight are his cherry on top.
I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨
