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.

Who’s going to enforce it? Because until authorities are brave enough to enforce this ruling, we’re going to keep seeing this abuse.
This is who they are when the cameras are on. Imagine who they are when they think no one’s watching.

The images and stories coming out of Minneapolis are extraordinary. We can't say we did not know what was happening. Lots of people are putting their bodies on the line to make sure we do.

Thanks to Donald Trump and his obsession with seizing Greenland, it appears that America is now in a cold war with the very European allies who came to the country’s aid following 9/11. Tell me if/why I am wrong.

It’s been 29 days since 100% of the Epstein files were supposed to be fully released. Thus far less than 1% of heavily redacted and unexplained files have been released.

According to DHS, about 3,000 ICE and federal agents are operating in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. THREE THOUSAND! The entire Minneapolis Police Department only has about 580 officers. This is outrageous and unnecessary.
Our tax dollars are funding this abuse, so it’s happening in our name.

I wonder if it would be useful to pressure Tom Emmer to weigh in whether he thinks it is okay for ICE to shoot Minnesotans.
If you're from his district it might be worth a call.

That’s not normal behavior. So ask yourself, is it really about their safety, or is the stage being set for something bigger?

They are not planning "a violent crackdown" on 10.18. What they are doing is sending a signal to their shock troops to try to cause havoc. But those shock troops will be vastly outnumbered. Go out and protest freely. Do not be cowed.
