It's 5:30am and TSA agents at JFK are fixing to catch a case. I can't blame them.

OPINION by Jack Criss, air traffic controller:

A friend of mine in Chicago just shared a video on IG of an ICE operation near her house. The operation happened just minutes before the neighborhood Halloween parade. ICE used tear gas and multiple parents had to wash their kids' (including toddlers) eyes out.

When you get a certain amount of money (Idk let's call it a billion dollars) you should be required to become a benefactor of something in the city of he or she votes in. The city gets to decide what you become a benefactor.

White people attending these “No Kings” gatherings need to appreciate the fact that Black people are keeping you safe from police, by largely staying in our homes.
Black people did not meet and discuss this. Strategic patriotism like this is part of who we are. Always has been. ✊🏽🇺🇸
