This photo is powerful for a number of reasons but to photographers throwing a leica is no less brave than anything else depicted here
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 and Mamdani’s revocation of all EOs after Adams’s corrupt bargain are the template moving forward. No nibbling around the edges; total bulldozing.

Be ready for the Trump admin to highlight this guy's lengthy criminal record to eliminate any sympathy for him, even though none of that justifies being choked to death by guards at a detention center.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

And why do they have no OBGYNs, Mister Oz?
Dr Oz: "Alabama has no OBGYNs in many of their counties, so they're doing something pretty cool. They're actually having robots do ultrasounds on these pregnant moms."

I understand that a lot of reactions are going to be along the lines of “well they’re just going to claim literally any protest is non-peaceful” and I’m sure they will do that in some cases
but these kinds of TROs have actually made a difference in other places
don’t hand it to them preemptively

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

My family needs a lot of medication and this Target houses our local CVS. We will be looking for alternatives— we cannot bring our kids on errands for socks or bananas while ICE stages in the parking lot
Instead of shopping there, I urge everyone to consider supporting small businesses and family-owned grocery stores in our community instead. Support small businesses who have been devastatingly impacted by immigration enforcement.
