you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review
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.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO
this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

There is a reason he’s forced to cause all of this chaos. He has NO PLAN. He funds no programs, no healthcare, no education, no lower prices, money coming in only supports more chaos. He envies other dictators. I challenge ANYONE to tell me just one single thing he’s accomplished? Discussion open

They are managing to both sides cops roughing up a United States Senator for California. This is "beat one, educate a million stuff." Who is gonna protest if Senator Padilla (a week after the leader of the biggest union in CA got days in custody) gets this treatment.
Sen. Alex Padilla disputed the White House’s account of the events surrounding his forcible removal from a news conference held by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in Los Angeles.
Sen. Alex Padilla disputes Trump administration's account of his forcible removal at a DHS event
Padilla called the degree of force used by federal law enforcement agents "excessive" and warned similar force might be used during ongoing immigration raids.

Like Secret Service agents, the median voter also does not recognize Alex Padilla, so the tackling and cuffing of a US senator may not be the political winner Democrats think it is.

Mike Johnson supports a psychotically deranged monster. Kristi Noem supports a psychotically deranged monster. They all know he's very willing to kill millions if they oppose his obsession for FAME+RECOGNITION of his superiority.

Wow. When I watched the J6 Hearings, Rep. Bennie Thompson always showed a high degree of decorum.
So it's pretty obvious here, he's not hiding his disdain and disgust over Kristi Noem's and ICE's actions.

Hey NY Times--
It is still a "fringe theory" -- every court has rejected it.
There is still a "broad consensus" -- John Eastman is a disgraced lawyer under indictment.
The only thing that has changed is the Times.

What we’re watching this week is the President of the United States using his public office to personally enrich himself. He’s using the office we put him in to take bribes from foreign governments.
It’s everything our Founders feared. And we’re letting it all happen right before our eyes.
