Hi everybody. I dabble in acrylics, and play far too much Richard Burns Rally. Here's Jackie, acrylic on canvas, from a photo of her sitting on a glass awning surveying her territory.

Folks, please retweet this. Trump, Noem, and the rest are lying everywhere about what ICE is doing in MN. We have to do everything we can to make sure the country has a clear picture of what is going on.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

6 years ago it was the murder of George Floyd, caught on camera, just a mile from where this happened.
Now it's ICE murdering Renee Good.
Both times, MAGA and Trump sided with the murderer.

A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.
