Because this is an enormous project and we're not seeing legacy media treat it the way it needs to be treated.
And so we know that the onus is on all of us in independent media.
So figuring out resources to bring in more researchers, to be able to use more tools, because there is so much in here.
And the DOJ knows that and they've made it very difficult to go through this.
So if folks go to career newsroom dot com, they can follow and or follow it on Instagram wherever you are.
Follow Cameron's reporting on this because he has been bringing stuff up every day.
I mean, are one of our key focuses is because we we are a local news network at heart.
That's what we care about is who are the folks that are complicit, that are named, that have actually stood by and protected, enabled or been silent in positions of power within our states.
because something else i think that needs to happen right now is that state governments state leaders need to take action they need to pursue criminal proceedings because we know the federal government will not the federal government are the ones
Who are the perpetrators, the enablers and the protectors?
And so that's what I hope we start to see more of is as our reporting rolls out in the local news organizations is how are we actually pressuring state and local officials to take legal action here and criminal justice action here where the federal government will not?
And this is so important, Jen, because state and local leadership is also where any accountability related to ICE is happening and can happen.

The federal government does not run our elections.

It would take away the ability for millions of Americans to register to vote in this country that they're pushing for, that Trump is pushing for.
He even said he wants to nationalize elections.
He cannot do that.
The states run these elections, and they were the ones, Republicans in state leadership, were the ones who held the line in 2020 when he tried to steal the election in Georgia.
We have to remember this point because when we're seeing Republicans, even Bible-thumping MAGA Republicans, stand up against this administration and say, no, this is not how this is going to work, like they did in Indiana with redistricting, like we've seen in these areas with your governor, like this is really important because we actually need them to hold the line when it comes to the midterms.
