The Hound 9/24

Hi there,

It’s Wednesday. Today, we’re talking about ICE using an autistic 5-year-old to lure his father into detention, officers ignoring laws barring courthouse arrests, and Project 2025 extremists calling for transgender people and their allies to be labeled as terrorists.

We’re also still seeing powerful media corporations like Sinclair and Nexstar block Jimmy Kimmel Live! from local ABC stations — silencing a major satirical voice that challenges the powerful.

🖊️ Add your name demanding Sinclair and Nexstar stop censoring Kimmel and respect free speech on public airwaves.

Read about this, and more, with today’s stories:
