Middleboro Review and so on

Today I have four major resistance wins for you. A small-town photographer who helped block a border wall from being built. A federal whistleblower who made ICE fold. A sloppy regime that can’t stop its own leaks. And Trump’s authoritarian buddy was just given the boot.
