More than 60 people dead in ICE shootings or while in detention? Since Donald Trump returned to power, that’s the shocking, grim reality. Yet, where’s the outrage from the mainstream media? Does anybody else find it curious that outlets like CNN and MSNBC, quick to criticize Trump’s policies, are unusually silent on the human cost of their enforcement? It’s as if the numbers are just another statistic, drowned out by the latest celebrity scandal or political theater.

Why aren’t we seeing breathless reports and live coverage, the way they did for every minor infraction from the previous administration? Let’s be honest: Corporate media loves to sensationalize anything that fits their narrative, while conveniently ignoring the parts that don’t. Fox News might tout itself as a champion of the underdog, yet they too offer little more than fleeting commentary on these tragedies before pivoting to their next big political play. This isn’t about “fair reporting”; it’s about pushing a narrative that fits their agendas without grappling with the uncomfortable truths of their own biases.

The question is not just about the deaths themselves but about the collective media failure to bring accountability. With over 60 lives lost, there should be an uproar that transcends party lines, but where is it? The silence is deafening. It’s time for those in power—both in Washington and the media—to stop trivializing human suffering and start confronting the reality of their complicity in this ongoing crisis.
