On January 11, I filmed Border Patrol agents arresting Orbin Mauricio Henriquez Serrano at a St. Paul gas station during Metro Surge.
Today, Henriquez Serrano filed a lawsuit asking for slightly over a million dollars, specifically citing Gregory Bovino's leadership.

A low-level army sentinel berated defense secretary Pete Hegseth and his party for acting disrespectfully at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Why are no generals standing up to him when he orders summary executions of people in suspected drug boats? trib.al/4k8xQun

Re: "barbarians." Under George W. Bush, American militarists pretended to uphold universal values. Now all masks are off and foreign policy is unvarnished bigotry.
The war in Iran is unpopular, but defeat would be far less popular. Three generations of soldiers have fought these barbarians. We owe it to our country and the West not to make it a fourth, writes @TimSheehyMT

The ultra-rich — defined as the 0.1 per cent of the world’s population or just 8mn people — produce more emissions than nearly half of humanity, Oxfam research released last month found.

LA County is finally ordering the Sheriff’s Department to name its deputy gangs.

New: Over the past year, ProPublica has photographed some of the more than 500 U.S. citizens who have been held against their will by immigration agents and learned of the lingering impact the experience has had on their lives. These are their stories. propub.li/4iQ7Eus

🚨 Virginia Giuffre’s brother says that Trump’s DOJ is STILL withholding 3 MILLION additional Epstein documents.
Katie Phang walks through thousands of volumes of released files, exposing massive redactions and asking: “How is this transparency? This isn’t transparency.”

In 1943, young Mexican Americans were beaten in the streets of Los Angeles for wearing zoot suits.
More than 80 years later, @Angela4CA, a Chicana and daughter of a deportee, is wearing an ode to the zoot suit in the halls of Congress.
A little history. 🧵

Whoops! Democrats missed the vote to impeach Pete Hegseth. Where were they? A social hour hosted by the AIPAC-linked Elect Democratic Women PAC studded with lobbyists for the country’s top weapons makers and largest corporations.

David Brouillette, the rookie ICE officer who fatally shot a Colombian migrant in Maine this summer, "has a troubling work history, past complaints of domestic violence and abuse, as well as mental health issues."
He also has a record of deep-seated anti-immigrant hostility, especially against Colombians. nytimes.com/2026/11/11/us/da…

New - I talked to a few transgender Texans who are rethinking plans to leave the state after last week's midterm elections saw Democrats sweep every statewide race. For the first time in a long time, they don't feel like there's a target on their backs: chron.com/culture/article/te…

Union baristas are serving free drinks and talking about why over 12,000 workers are calling on everyone to BOYCOTT STARBUCKS.
Starbucks is the #1 violator of US labor law in modern history. It's time for the company to finalize a fair union contract!

Since taking office last year, Marco Rubio has flown to at least 10 University of Florida football games.
The flights have cost the government more than $1.2 million, The Post found.
Rubio's personal travel appears to significantly outpace that of his predecessors. washingtonpost.com/politics/…
