ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

Klobuchar: "When I questioned AG Bondi during her confirmation hearing, she assured me that politics would not play a role, that they would make independent decisions. That is not what this is. This is a vengeance prosecution. It is not about the law."

A federal judge has ordered Florida to shut down "Alligator Alcatraz," after the state spent a staggering $218M to build the now-vacant detention camp.
Closing it will run taxpayers another $20M.
An utterly cruel and costly waste.

I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is.
This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.

Cops have done this to auditors (like Long Island Audits etc.) for years. Cops are just now more emboldened.
The only solution is to have more citizens out filming than police presence.
OUTNUMBER the power tripping cops and stand firm.
Get arrested, then get back out and film. Repeat.
