When an Iranian drone struck Port Shuaiba, Kuwait, on March 1st, there were no sirens, no air defenses, and no plan to care for the wounded. Six American service members were killed that day, and the ones who survived are now speaking out. They all deserve better. apnews.com/article/iran...

Susan Collins was at the center of a major bribery probe for steering millions in contracts to a company whose CEO illegally funneled thousands to her campaign. Then Trump took office and gutted the FBI and DOJ units investigating her. Is this what "being moderate" looks like?

We already know the Trump administration has been lying about ICE “targeting the worst of the worst” — the actual numbers tell the truth. The government’s own data shows only 15 % of those detained had any prior criminal convictions, and just 3 % were violent offenders.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.
White words on a black background read:

50+ 
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. 

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.
