“.. they are just grabbing people, putting them in cuffs,” said Kaden Cummings, 23, who witnessed the arrests. “Nobody’s identifying themselves .. There’s no due process .. It’s just straight to the back of a van if you’re African on Canal.”

🚨 A woman walking to work in Chicago gets snatched up off the street by ICE. Nothing American in this video. She keeps asking for help over and over. All she gets is a photographer taking her picture and hauled off like an animal. 1/2

“.. They are the asylum seekers, the rule followers. They go into the federal building holding papers .. hoping for a measure of due process. Some leave the courthouse with a hearing date set months or years from now. Others disappear into ICE’s prison system.”

🔥 COUNTRY SINGER @bryanandrewsmusic.bsky.social : "You don't get to call yourself a Christian and laugh when families are torn apart — and think it's okay that the highest court in the land just gave a green light to ICE agents to target people because they’re brown or speaking Spanish.”

Happy Diwali, Illinois!

I hope that the Festival of Lights brings you peace during this time of celebration and reflection — that even in the darkest of days, the light of wisdom and unity will always triumph.

Happy Diwali--the festival of lights, to everyone!

Enlightenment will drive out darkness!

I have celebrated Diwali three times in India. The most memorable moment was 2018 when I spent my holiday evening at the Golden Temple, Amritsar!

光明节快乐！光明最终总会驱逐黑暗！
2018年点灯节在锡克金庙。

New developments in my 3 year Epstein investigation, this time regarding JP Morgan Chase and its CEO, Jamie Dimon. This is a long thread, but worth sticking around for.
