Minnesota Congressmember Ilhan Omar was sprayed with an unknown liquid Tuesday during a town hall event in Minneapolis. Omar has long been a favorite target of President Donald Trump and his supporters, and the attack on her comes just days after Florida Congressmember Maxwell Frost was punched by a Trump supporter while attending the Sundance Film Festival.
“It’s truly heartbreaking, this moment we find ourselves in,” Omar said when she resumed her remarks, discussing the Trump administration’s violent immigration crackdown. “But if we know anything about ... continua

Liam Ramos, the 5-year-old from Minnesota who was detained last week after coming home from preschool, is being held in the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas. Congressmembers who visited Liam report that has been depressed and hasn’t been eating well.

Ken è un killer seriale metodico e solitario che, durante il turno di notte, entra in una tavola calda deserta. Dopo aver ucciso la cameriera e il cuoco, si prepara a ripulire la scena, ma il suo piano viene interrotto dall'arrivo di altri clienti. A peggiorare le cose, le sue vittime non restano morte a lungo e tornano in vita come zombie affamati, intrappolandolo all'interno del locale. Quella che era iniziata come una notte di caccia si trasforma in una lotta per la sopravvivenza intrisa di umorismo nero e splatter.

As President Trump suggests the federal government should “nationalize” and take over the elections process from the states, we speak with Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes.

The Washington Post has laid off more than 300 journalists, dismantling its sports, local news and international coverage. “Everybody is grieving, and it’s a loss for our readers,” says Nilo Tabrizy, one of the paper’s recently laid-off staff, who describes a “robotic” meeting announcing the cuts. “They didn’t have the dignity to look us in the eye.” The shocking staff culling has been widely attributed to the paper’s leadership under Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, who bought the nearly 150-year-old institution in 2013. Karen Attiah, the former global ... continua

Thirty-three-year-old Palestinian activist Leqaa Kordia will soon mark one year trapped in ICE detention.

Federal immigration officers said her student visa had expired, and sent her to an ICE detention center in North Texas, where she’s been incarcerated ever since. Under what she describes as torturous ... continua

We speak with Aliya Rahman, a U.S. citizen who was violently dragged from her car by federal immigration officers in Minneapolis last month and detained at the Whipple Federal Building, which has become the epicenter of the government’s immigration crackdown in the city. Rahman says she repeatedly told agents she was disabled and had a brain injury, but they ignored her pleas for medical attention or other accommodation. “I was taken out of that place unconscious,” says Rahman, who describes lasting injuries and trauma from her detention. Rahman was not charged ... continua
