In case you're curious what your DA is doing instead of standing with the community who got viciously tear gassed by ICE this weekend:
1. Covered trial call for a photo op;
2. Prosecuting a misdo resist claim against an
ICE protester to run cover for the PPB cop who broke that protester's arm.

White House ‘can’t guarantee’ ICE won’t be at polls
The federal government has historically recognized polling places as off-limits for immigration enforcement precisely to avoid deterring lawful voters.

Damn look what a DA can do when they want to use their power
Philidelphia DA Larry Krasner warns ICE: If an agent commits crimes in Philly, I will charge you. You will be arrested. You will stand trial, and you will be convicted in state or federal court and you will do your time. Donald Trump can't pardon you for a state court conviction.

is this not just a plain conspiracy to undermine sovereign elections plotted out in full view of the public?
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

NEW: In one of his most explicit signals of election interference yet, Trump falsely claimed on a radio interview that immigrants “were brought to our country to vote and they vote illegally” and urged Republicans to control elections by placing them under national authority.
Trump: ‘We should take over the voting'
Trump, as usual, offered no evidence for any of his claims.

I can't stop thinking of my Saturday encounter with this little girl and her mom after ICE tear gassed a packed crowd of THOUSANDS, including many children and elders, most without airway protection or water.
Then they did it all AGAIN on Sunday.

I recorded this today, in Portland, Oregon, at a huge march to the ICE facility in SW. The crowd was full of cyclists who had ridden there in memory of Alex Pretti; members of several labor unions; and ordinary citizens of every age, including this little girl. So of course ICE deployed tear gas.
