Simple solution would be to just go and arrest them.
Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium.
ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

Meant to mention this last week, but if you have a young person in your life who’s into history or graphic novels or just good books, buy them George Takei’s “They Called Us Enemy.” My oldest couldn’t put it down.

As student protesters are branded terrorists, a renowned journalist and scholar is being punished for defending them.
Steven put his body on the line to protect students. Now Northwestern is retaliating.
This isn’t just about him—it’s about what happens to anyone who refuses to fall in line.

Keep telling yourself it’s only about Palestine…sit quietly protected by tenure & let junior faculty members, grad students, and students get expunged- cowards.
Soon enough it will be because you said this thing about race, that thing about gender…
Clairvoyance isn’t needed to see where this ends.

Saw a video of a Palestinian child trying to pick up the scraps of flesh that were left of his mother.
And I live in a country where if you call this barbarism you risk arrest & deportation, where protest is ‘anti-Semitism’ & colleges turn students over to the gestapo.

When people say “MAGA,” I ask “when was the US great?”
They respond typically with “the ‘50s-‘70s.”
So I reply “oh! when the marginal tax rate was 91%! When college was cheap and publicly funded! When corporations divided profits among their workers! When salaries kept up with inflation! Right?”

This message of solidarity by American Jews with Mahmoud Khalil and the Palestinians is the best answer to the weaponizing of antisemitism by the Trump administration.
BREAKING: Hundreds of Jews and allies have taken over Trump Tower chanting “We want justice, you say how. Bring Mahmoud home now!” and “Fight Nazis, not students.”
The civil disobedience is spawned by the ICE arrest of Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil.
