I managed to pass out over 80 3D printed ICE whistles in Metro Denver today. Not bad for an introvert

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children

They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!”

This is tyranny

These kids are traumatized

It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

Dick Cheney was a war criminal who presided over the trauma and deaths of thousands. He's a terrible human being.

I’m not sure how one could pull this off alone, this seems very suspect.

It seems possible Mr Ge came through jacumba (I don’t recall being aware of people crossing closer to tecate). I remember lots of Chinese folks arriving the days before he was booked by BP.
This is beyond horrific.

ICE is responsible for the well-being of people in immigration detention and it is failing that responsibility miserably. Mr. Ge’s loved ones and the American people need answers immediately. www.newsweek.com/ice-detainee...

Those temps are hella unsafe for serving meat. A friend who used to be a food inspector says this is standard practice so that the restaurant/vendor can't dig the food out of the trash and try to serve it.
NEW: The City of Denver defends an inspector pouring bleach on an unlicensed vendor’s food in a now-viral video. The city says the vendor ignored multiple cease-and-desist health notices and even hid unsafe meat to prevent its disposal by inspectors. www.9news.com/article/news...

I've been offering food in front of my house, which is in a mixed income neighborhood near transit. Today, when I got home, this note was in the plastic tote that I store the grains in.

And yes, I did run out and buy some Beefaroni.

you probably shouldn't let what commentators like Ezra Klein say be the limit of your imagination or determine what you think is politically possible. He doesn't have a clue what is possible.

Making people afraid to be affiliated with antifascism—making people afraid to be associated with groups and people that actively oppose fascism—is some bleak shit.

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.
