We’re seeing reports of Feds raiding farms in Oxnard and Camarillo today. This just happened in Camarillo.

Icymi Ventura county was invaded with military vehicles today in a few locations. They are not allowing duly elected officials or the press to witness. They are tear gassing peaceful protesters and shooting them with rubber bullets. It is surreal and fuked up.
