➡️ A gay couple in Washington, D.C. is stuck in limbo after ICE detained one husband, a Panamanian immigrant, during what had long been treated as a routine immigration check-in.
Plus, Renee Good’s family has retained the same law firm as George Floyd’s to launch a civil investigation into her killing, and Rep. Robin Kelly has filed articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, saying she’s led a “reign of terror.”
