👉🏼Let me be very clear👈🏼 Migrants crossing the border in the #RGV are being tested for #COVID before leaving the area. I know this, bc I was there. I watched a 3-month old get swabbed. City employees & NGO’s working together to keep these families AND border communities safe.

To my fellow journalists. I have a long-standing personal policy of not saying the names of mass shooters beyond when they are 1st identified or still on the loose. Please consider joining me in that. We can still report the full story without making these people household names.

Source says - TX Democrats have left the state to break quorum so they won't have to vote on a bill that tightens voting restrictions. Here's what I know: 👉More than 50 dems flying out on 2 private jets 👉They left today bc the Lt Gov made threats to step in & gavels in tomorrow

Asking tough questions isn't easy. But stories of families being separated are real and true - I've spoken with several mothers who have waited months to get their children back. Honored to report alongside @DavidBegnaud @GayleKing on #ImmigrantChildren & #separatingfamilies

How is it okay for the children to be taken away their parent without information? PADILLA: "That's misinformation" @GAYLEKING : "I had parent after parent tell me that they weren't told where their child is going...you're saying they're not telling the truth to me?"

Seven weeks ago I sat down with the Oronas. Their son Noah was shot during the #RobbElementary massacre & was recovering at the time. He’s a quiet kid w/a kind heart. Today, he’s marching in Washington DC for #gun reform. His parents, by his side, couldn’t be prouder. #uvalde365

This is Brett Cross. He sat on the foot of the #Uvalde City Hall staircase, waiting for answers as the legislative panel met upstairs. He even stood outside the school as the panel toured the crime scene last week. He is sad, frustrated and angry. He is desperate for answers.

Church’s security team had eyes on the suspect from the moment he walked in. He was not a regular parishioner. 👇🏼This is Jack Wilson.👇🏼 He shot the gunman in the head. Said he wasn’t striking down a person, he was striking down evil. @CBSThisMorning @CBSEveningNews
