Kirsten Gillibrand coming out for shutting down ICE is a pretty big deal:

Fun fact: faith groups were ALREADY DOING THAT https://t.co/VAZGQ33KG2 pic.twitter.com/oiuEQcpKbe

No notoriety: @CNN's front is intensely, intimately focused on the victims of the shooting. Their names. Their faces. Not an image of the perpetrator in sight, and his name is nowhere on home page. https://t.co/Z86eZ6807T pic.twitter.com/hHYU1UjSi0
