Per a recent lawsuit filed by the ACLU, ICE brought a social media influencer to record the arrest of a man who, it turned out, was a U.S. citizen. Oops.

Nick Miroff: After 9/11, George W. Bush created the Department of Homeland Security to prevent future terror strikes. Now DHS shifted from defending the country against foreign terrorists to deploying agents on American streets for the purpose of terrorizing American citizens.
‘Maybe DHS Was a Bad Idea’
Two decades after its founding, the department has become what its critics feared.

If a Democratic president had done something like this, Fox and the GOP would have turned Adriana Camberos into a household name à la Willie Horton or, yes, Hunter Biden.

I genuinely don't understood how America took the emoluments clause -- the common-sense bar on a president using his powers to line his own pockets, a law children can understand -- and just said, nah, that doesn't apply for our Very Special Boy.
He’s turned the presidency into the world’s largest ATM machine.

a few things I want people to get from this:
-how tense it is here. I was death-gripping the steering wheel during this, even watching it makes me tense up
-how organized the community is. the rapid response networks are ENORMOUS and highly effective
-how completely the city is united against ICE

Federal agents’ use of chemical weapons has hurt children at immigration raids, while walking down their block, and in their schools.
ICE's tear gas sent a 6-month-old to the hospital, the latest in an alarming pattern

Does the Toronto Star do gift links because I’d love to more detail about how scrappy my fit is
"The engine puttered; the inside of his 15-year-old hatchback was starting to smell like burning oil.

Within seconds Stancil was on the Expedition’s tail, no more than a few metres off the white bumper. He laid into his horn. 'Meep-Meep-Meep!' It sounded like the Roadrunner. 'Meep-Meep-Meep!'"

So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away.

Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

2/ "the visual evidence shows no indication that the agent who fired the shots, Jonathan Ross, had been run over...

It also establishes — millisecond by millisecond — how Mr. Ross put himself in a dangerous position near her vehicle in the first place."

New NYT video analysis shows:
1) Good was making a 3 point turn to leave scene
2) Ross violated training by walking in front of her car
3) NO INDICATION ROSS WAS RUN OVER
4)The thud noise is not Ross getting hit, it's his phone hitting the hood of the car
5) It is Ross calling Good a 'f*cking bitch"

Tear gas — currently being deployed in Minneapolis — can cause long-term health consequences by making people more susceptible to contracting respiratory illnesses.

The chemical agent can also hurt people inside their homes if it seeps into residential neighborhoods.
