Federal data shows that in recent months ICE has primarily targeted immigrants with no criminal record. Fox's coverage suggested the opposite.
mediamatters.org
Only 3 of 113 Fox News segments about ICE actions mentioned that the majority of immigrants being arrested have no criminal record

When ICE tells you they’re targeting the worst of the worst, this is what they mean. ICE arrested Ameaka at BWI airport, and immediately moved her out of state to a GEO facility in Louisiana. www.thebanner.com/community/lo...
Screenshot of two paragraphs of article text reading: "Ameaka began studying for a master's degree in public health in 2023 as a Fulbright scholar, according to her LinkedIn page. She's affiliated with the university's environmental health and engineering department and the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Equity, according to her faculty page on the university's website. She's also the founder of a peer education organization, BodyTalk, which aims to educate young women and girls about self-esteem, health and body positivity."

Good morning. We're starting the day angry. Exhibits on COVID-19 masking and health equity have been papered over at CDC's David J. Sencer Museum. This admin prefers to whitewash history. Let’s never stop telling the truth, defending evidence, and holding power accountable.
The image shows an exhibit in at the CDC museum that has been hidden by a sheet of white paper. A sign on the exhibit says "Pardon our Progress".

I think both points can be true: - John Bolton broke the law and mishandled classified docs - Trump’s weaponized DOJ went after Bolton in the first place because the president told it to Trump effectively admitted the latter point today, saying he “helped” with the case. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

He is wearing glasses and pink hoodie and denim jacket.The painting is called Critical Race Theory which depicts a non-specific white male rolling over images of Martin Luther King, Harriet Tubman, and Malcolm X with opaque white paint, in a gesture that boldly and beautifully illustrates the white-washing of black history.
