I was watching 2 livestreamers in Tucson. One got inside the perimeter of the SWAT raid & mentioned there was also an associated traffic stop. Meanwhile the second guy is lost & clueless and somehow stumbles on the traffic stop -- with a dead body, shot in the head. Police killed the Guthrie suspect

Child: My favorite one is a gold snake that can move. It has gold eyes, and it has a super-duper tail…

Reporter: Mr. Mamdani, the second question for you.

Mamdani: Yes. It’s also the golden snake."

Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.

DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.
EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.

A looming deportation purge in Springfield, Ohio is on pause. But Haitians there are still hiding at home and making plans for who will take care of their kids if they are snatched by ICE and disappeared. A report from the ground:

I watch a lot of murder trials and police interrogations. The sort of exhaustive, expensive investigations & granular, vigorous prosecutions & defense lawyering we see for civilians are never the case for deaths at the hands of law enforcement. the asymmetry makes it feel like justice is just a show
