The fact of the matter is that without due process the only thing that separates any of us from being a "criminal" is if the state says we are.

If the state does not have to give criminals due process, they do not have to give YOU due process.

All they have to do is call you a criminal.

Video from this morning shows ICE agents deploying tear gas outside a Minneapolis preschool as parents shout, “This is a preschool! There’s kids here!”

You might think this is a video game. It is. But it is also political art that is ever more pertinent in these times.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

ICE totaled this car, abducted a woman, and then left it in the middle of Snelling Avenue, one of the busiest streets in the Twin Cities.

This isn’t law and order, this state sanctioned terrorism. It’s fucking disgusting.

Kind of wild there has been almost no coverage of the fact that the federal government unleashed chemical weapons against literal kids *at school*.

NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

It’s unlikely that Good’s murderer is a particularly depraved or unhinged ICE officer. That’s just everybody who has the personality to be an ICE officer. That’s just ICE. Don’t exceptionalize him, he’s a systemic manifestation.

Nancy Pelosi hasn't been a leader of the progressive wing of the party for a long time, but there is no establishment Democrat I have more respect for. The fact that the big tent party always felt more impactful under her leadership than the GOP has under any number of their own Speakers says a lot.
