Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

i think it is cool that a government run by fanatical bigots is on track to plunge the economy into a mountain and cause a food crisis
So this is funny.
The administration just issued a rule slashing foreign agricultural worker wages. And to justify it, in a public filing, Trump's Labor Department alleges that Trump's immigration enforcement has devastated the Ag workforce and caused a "risk of supply shock-induced food shortages."

Really nice, @wmatagm.bsky.social @wmata.com , parking in multiple bike lanes on the same block. Do you *want* bicyclists to get hit by yr officers or other drivers?
I take it by the laughs I heard when snapping photos that your officers don't care about road safety or building community relations.

"Your city will always have exactly as much gridlock as it makes room for."
Morning rush-hour near London's Oval station. Trains pass underground every few minutes and there's a continuous flood of bicycles, but still there's one lane of gridlocked traffic. Your city will always have exactly as much gridlock as it makes room for.

BREAKING: A grand jury has REJECTED charges against D.C. attorney Paul Bryant, a West Point grad accused of assaulting and threatening to kill National Guardsmen.
Easily the most serious charges to get no true billed so far during the federal surge.
