This goes for my Latino family, no matter the shade of Brown. We have to fight the illusion of the power of White adjacency. Step up and fight for all of us, because none of us are free until all of us are Free.

🔥🔥🔥 Today at immigration court 26 Federal Plaza this woman went ballistic to the masked ICE agents who detained her family member. Where are the people standing up to the Gestapo? I never saw this in 4 months I’ve been filming. 👏👏👏👏

Federal officials claim Portland's ICE facility closed down due to protests. Even federal judges acknowledged this as true.

So OPB decided to fact check it. Data show bookings at the building never stopped.

Portland’s ICE building closed for 22 days this summer, but immigration arrests and detentions hardly slowed

Justice Department attorneys argue the facility was “inoperable.” Some public functions were halted. Bookings were not.

I don't care that Nuzzi sexted RF2K. I mean, that's disgusting, but the heart knows what it wants. I care that Nuzzi wrote articles about Biden without disclosing that she was in an intimate relationship with RF2K. That's wildly inappropriate.

It's ethics, not sluttiness, that is the issue.

Everyone in my feed is shitting on Nuzzi. Meanwhile, the other person in the saga is now destroying the medical community and endangering public health.

But let’s slut shame Nuzzi.

It’s unacceptable that infants, young children, and expectant mothers might lose essential nutrition assistance because Republicans shut down the government. WIC services have never lapsed during a government shutdown, and they shouldn’t lapse now.

A musician, Oriana Korol, was peacefully playing clarinet with her protest band outside ICE facilities in Portland, OR.

When the band started playing “Ghostbusters,” ICE thugs suddenly poured outside, slammed her into the mud, arrested her and took her to a jail 9 miles away in Vancouver, WA.

ICE raids Walgreens in Chicago—older white agent tackles Black man to the ground—arrests him for "running."

"He's a U.S. citizen! He's American!" a woman yells. "He's my brother-in-law!"

Store location was forced to close "because of everything with ICE"—manager told the rest of the customers.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

The responses on his skeet are very telling. All commenting on his Drop Kick Murphy’s hoody. It hits too close to how they commented on Fetterman’s attire. And white allyship. I am side eyeing all of them. His record as a white man sucks ass.
