I’ve also gotten to cover ICE a lot lately. It’s generally pretty heartbreaking, but the cool thing is, you get fun emails from readers who send you racial slurs and tell you these people deserve it! Cool story, guys!
Wish I had more time to work on this since there were a gazillion other bullshit things that could’ve been added.

Easily one of the most insane things I’ve ever covered and I forced in a Michael Jackson reference.
Ta-Nehisi Coates wrote up an amazing tweetstorm that was way better than what I wrote here (that I didn’t end up seeing until after publishing), but I’m still proud I got to actually put this out.
There’s a video in here of Nelba Marquez-Greene’s daughter playing the piano that I remember just about every time there’s a school shooting now (which is every week, if not every day).

I’ve gotten the chance to make fun of Jim Bakker a lot. #blessed
