They nearly killed this woman. Then they went on national TV and tried to smear her.
Woman Seen Pulled from Car Speaks Out: 'Lucky to be alive'

Aliya Rahman "said she was driving to an appointment at the Traumatic Brain Injury Center when the incident occurred."

She asked for a doctor and was taken to a detention center where she lost consciousness.

That’s the spirit of Seattle right there.
To prove a point that the bus route was too slow, people raced and beat the bus while juggling or dancing.

Coordinated a beer drop by a white friend to deliver a 30-rack of Hamm’s to a Hispanic friend’s doorstep because his wife wouldn’t let him leave the house to go buy more beer for fear he’d be brutalized by lawless armed masked federal paramilitaries. This is Minnesota community. We take care of us.

As a baker, I concur. AP flour is very, very versatile.
I'm not recommending anything, but as a fact, All Purpose Flour is versatile AF. U can make cookies & cakes & breads & throw it onto windshields & in2 eyewear and gear. &, if one were 2 add a bit of water aftr that, say with a water bottle or something, well, it gets really really sticky & annoying.

It's not hypocrisy, it's capitalism.

The bizarre behaviour of Western states and leaders often seems to betray a moral double standard. But in fact it is all perfectly consistent with a single standard, namely, the objective of maintaining the conditions for capital accumulation in the core.

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

“We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino.”

In LA now, that is the reality, at least as long as this case continues. And there’s no reason in this opinion to assume it won’t soon be the reality for the rest of us, too.
Supreme Court blesses racial profiling by ICE
The conservative justices don't explain a decision that green lights detaining people for how they look.

It's been five months since I was laid off, and I'm still hunting for work.

I'd still like to stay in policy and/or advocacy; but at this point, I'm open to pretty much anything.

Imagine explaining to someone in 2019 that in 2025 the Israeli military would be trying to drone bomb Greta Thunberg.
Israel just bombed the flotilla boat that Greta (and the rest of the original Madleen crew) were sailing on, as it was docked in Tunis to set sail tomorrow for Gaza.

there simply isn't enough coverage of the fact that, as a matter of ideology and public policy, trump and his administration think domestic violence is good
Trump minimizes domestic abuse during a talk at the Museum of the Bible: "Things that take place in the home, they call crime ... If a man has a little fight with the wife, they say this was a crime, see?"

The Supreme Court just gave ICE permission to legally racially profile and arrest people, just because of how they look, where they work, and what language they speak.

Make no mistake: the federal government is harassing and threatening Latinos to make us small and afraid. They won’t succeed.
