Much credit to Bloomberg for continually tracking this retreat:
Coca-Cola, BP, FedEx, HSBC and countless other companies are quietly backing away from their environmental commitments. A fateful retreat, on the cover of international editions of the July @BW: https://t.co/rJzoHFBVAk with other stories posting soon. https://t.co/yVqkNVl9UG
Incredible story: Masked ICE guys haunting immigration court, picking up people doing regular required check-ins, tearing them away from wives and kids. Lawmakers denied access, judges upset. The looks on these peoples' faces. Via @luisferre @heislerphoto https://t.co/UPN7GFCeM6
Also today, I take a look at the melding of labor organizing and immigrant advocacy that made Los Angeles the place where protests against Trump's deportation agenda were almost certain to take off first. https://t.co/CbKeD7wuSL
