      And you stand by your statement that they were “silent,” and that they instead “attacked” the Guv? It’s hardly an attack when a group of rag-tag organizers defend immigrants from a powerful and well-financed Governor. #HotTakes

      They, and you, were silent about the Obama Administration separating children and its immigration policies. Only Sen @IveySoto called out the Obama Administration. #NotHotTake #Facts

      You don’t know your facts. We were rag tag and getting arrested in 2013. Many people worked tirelessly to end the family detention, including volunteer educators. @NEANewMexico @AFTNM President Ly and many other union members brought supplies & created act of civil disobediencepic.twitter.com/jr7giQ1Ohu

      A reporter who seeks to hold all sides accountable isn't a member of the opposing side just because the questions posed makes you feel uncomfortable. It's called #journalism

      Disagree with Russ’s aspersions. Response due to past work in Artesia. You seem hyper sensitive. I support/defend the 1st Amendement. If a journalist, call & get the complete Story. There is a difference between punditry and journalism. Fighting 2 Reforming immigration since 1997

      Not "hyper sensitive." Responding with #facts since I have covered immigration for year and I was puzzled by the lack of intensity of protests in New Mexico around Central American migrants during Obama Admin. (there were protests out of El Paso and Las Cruces however).

      Dude #fact. We spent weeks —day and night in Artesia calling out the injustice of detention and the 3 minute hearings in 2013. I even bought a print cartridge for inside facility so they could print their appeals. Never saw you or heard from you. Does that mean you went covering?

      Once Artesia closed protest continued nationwide and NM was largely quiet. #facts

          Yep we were pretty tired in SE NM and had a couple of court dates. I think you may want to rethink your blanket statement. As many of us coordinated with @Somosunpueblo
