1/ I've spent the last 18 months investigating how our government reached the point of taking children away from their parents as a way to discourage migration to the United States. Here's my story about how and why it happened, and who's responsible.

Great story by @mccrummens on the fear among people with "deep roots in cities and towns across a nation whose central hypocrisy has long been to use the cheap labor that immigrants supply, while often demonizing them for political expedience."

Has former President Trump's language around immigration become harsher?

"I think really it's a transformation toward very bald expressions of racism and xenophobia," said @itscaitlinhd.

"I mean this is the territory of fascist neo-Nazi groups."

.@elainejgodfrey on the state and local election boards who are preparing for chaos thanks to concerted efforts to undermine their work and force through a result not based on actual votes, but on pressure and intimidation--all in plain sight.

Re-upping my story about a small town that was terrorized the first time Trump ran for president. Local officials received death threats and battled depression. They were all republicans, and the saga began with an anti immigrant conspiracy theory.

Re-upping. It’s been 23 years today. https://t.co/CaGCXgRBqp

Trump claims immigrants are harming and eating animals in Springfield, Ohio.

FACT CHECK: Authorities -- including the Springfield city manager -- say that is not true and that there is no evidence Haitian immigrants in the city are harming animals.

NU: Haitians headed to a midwestern town to fill jobs Americans didn't fill. Then tragedy struck, bringing out racism and politicians, including JD Vance. My latest. https://t.co/6Mo7xYu09q
