I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

A judge has freed Sean Dunn—who threw a sandwich at an ICE fascist—ruling that a felony charge is excessive.

To be clear, MAGA snowflakes celebrated Trump for pardoning Nazis who physically beat cops to death with pipes, but tried to charge a man armed with a sandwich with a felony.🤔 Incredible.

New— Nazis with giant swastika flags marched in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday with two police escorts. They shouted “white power” and said to the woman who took this video (reshared here with her permission) “fuck you, n***** bitch.”

Police did not intervene. I cannot find local news coverage.
