Indiscriminate ICE arrests have left Baltimore’s immigrant communities in a constant state of fear and anxiety

Highlandtown sidewalks tell a much different story today than they did a year ago. Shops that once bustled with conversation sit emptier; families who once roamed the streets have now retreated. The d...

Not wanting to have just the legacy news, I’m also adding the independent news about the Chicago Raid coverage thetriibe.com/2025/09/feds...

Feds detain dozens of immigrants in 'massive' South Shore apartment building raid in Chicago • The TRiiBE

An estimated 40 people were taken by federal agents in the course of the overnight raid in the predominately-Black neighborhood.

My public POV:

That Chicago raid is similar to the K K K ter* rorism enacted on Black neighborhoods in the 1900’s, as well as the MOVE 💣 in Philly.

The fact I even saying this out loud is of a major concern.

Doing my part to stay aware of what is actually happening in Chicago. This is horrific because these were predominantly Black citizens that were impacted.

I’m fine with Colin Kaepernick paying for the independent autopsy of Trey Reed. Dropping this article as a reminder of what occurred in Maryland, giving weight of support of an independent investigation www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/ne...

Families sounded alarm years before review of autopsies under former Maryland medical examiner

WJZ Investigates is following the fallout from a bombshell audit that revealed dozens of cases where people died after police restrained them, which should have been classified as homicides.

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments.

that fox news host still has his job.

This research was removed from the DOJ website.
