you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Getting ready to learn Chinese
Nearly 2 million Canadians are of Chinese descent, many with family and friends across the Pacific.

As we renew this relationship, China has committed to soon allowing Canadians to visit without a visa.

will is right, ICE and the entire trump administration is acting aggressive in hopes that it will silence opposition into submission and it’s important to not give them that. what’s happening in minneapolis will sadly come for us and we need to be ready
I’m physically following them around using my government name telling them to arrest me and they haven’t bothered to arrest me. Also half the US Attorney’s office here in MN just resigned! They do not have a case and they do not have manpower, but their only tool is trying to be menacing.
will not be surprised if the subpoenas are never issued

still not as funny as the bad review someone left because they didn’t like what i said about charlie kirk, which is weird because i’ve never mentioned him on the show. i was describing george lincoln rockwell & they must have just assumed i was talking about CK because they had so much in common.

the bait taking rhetoric is so they can blame you later, its preparing ground not actual concern.

Part of what's so enraging about these stories is that these authors never actually seem to care about the underlying stories they claim "the left" should be more vocal about. Has Gal Beckerman been talking about the Iranian opposition for the past few years? No, he just wants to left punch.

i think it’s pretty fair to consider CBS straight fascist government media, trumps administration is clearly drip feeding them narratives and “scoops” and obviously CBS will run them with zero regard for fact

The complaint is difficult reading, but if you need a condensed timeline of events in Minneapolis... I think I missed this incident entirely:

U.S. citizen detained by ICE:

“…they finally told me that they could offer undocumented family members of mine legal protection if I have any…or money, in exchange for giving them the names of protest organizers, or undocumented persons. I was shocked, and told them no.”
just a reminder that we aren’t even seeing the worst of what is happening in Minneapolis from someone detailed at the Whipple Federal Building yesterday
