True colors: Jeff Sessions’ announcement today that President Trump will end DACA showcased the real reasons why the administration is trying to kill the program, Mark Joseph Stern writes.

Even us: The Chaldean community of Iraqi Christians in Michigan were huge supporters of Donald Trump in 2016, but ICE has been taking them away, anyway. Chris Gelardi chronicles a series of heartbreaking removals.

What a trip: Twin Peaks: The Return, is over, and it was just as legendary and weird as the rest of Twin Peaks. Laura Miller reviews Sunday night’s finale, and Corey Atad speculates on what inspiration David Lynch’s fellow creators might take from the series this time around.
For fun: Peppa Pig vs. Australia.
Spiders win,
