So @whitneycwimbish.bsky.social did a writeup of Brad Lander's arrest today at 26 Federal Plaza in NYC, focusing not just on Lander's treatment, but the treatment of immigrants inside, both in the courtroom and once they are detained. prospect.org/justice/2025...

Curious that this article does not mention that Israel started this "conflict" by bombing Iran without provocation.

This is exactly the right tone when privileged people suffer minor or temporary consequences standing up for powerless people. It’s still about the powerless people. ICE is Gestapo trash.

It is extraordinarily weird watching him conveying a single, cohesive thought for more than five seconds here. It really does show you that, while his heart as always been several shades deeper than vantablack, there's something medically wrong with his brain at this point.

Having a bit of a hard time with the concept that if a guy in a police uniform who has a police vehicle shows up I should lock the doors and call 911, but if a guy in a ski mask with an hGH gut appears to be kidnapping my neighbor, I shouldn’t ask who he is if I don’t want federal charges.

For #FathersDay, please read my story about James Carver and take a moment to consider all the families that have been separated by incarceration.

A man with a green card said ICE agents arrested him in #Lynn, Mass then took him to a detention facility—but first made a detour to a cemetery, where they took him out of their vehicle and beat him. #mapoli #Massachusetts

Do we really need to put in the newspaper how compassionate cops are every time they don't kill an autistic child sitting on the ground while hiding a broken pair of scissors? Shouldn't this be the norm? #Stoughton #mapoli www.enterprisenews.com/story/news/l...

ICE is continuing to arrest elected officials on baseless charges as part of its lawless campaign of terror. ICE is a threat to everyone's basic constitutional rights. No half measures. #AbolishICE.

The armed, yellow-vested "peacekeepers" at the Utah 50501 protest in Salt Lake City opened fire into a crowd, hitting two people: A Sāmoan fashion designer with two young kids, who died. A second-generation Venezuelan immigrant and antiracist protester who was legally carrying. Cops charged HIM.

ICE accused Milford teen Marcelo Gomes da Silva of telling "blatant lies" about his detention in #Burlington. In the same statement, ICE claimed Seth Moulton and Jake Auchincloss visited the detention facility and had "no concerns" — but both lawmakers said that wasn't true. #Massachusetts #mapoli

"Retirement with two pending disciplinary counts and a lifetime ban from police work in #Massachusetts does not preclude Merricks from receiving his $78,000-per-year pension, which he worked toward over nearly 25 years with the #Boston Police." #mapoli

New York City did not defund the police. This is not a thing that happened.

The advice in this article simply isn’t true in our current environment. The expert quoted here: “And there’s nothing wrong with asking for some identification. A real-life police officer is going to be more than willing to take that extra step to identify themselves.”

The brother of a #Chelmsford, #Massachusetts cop hit a teen girl in the back of the head with a mirror on his truck then drove away. She was diagnosed with a concussion. It was caught on video, but police said no charges were warranted until the local news started asking questions. #mapoli

My latest for @theappeal.org: James Carver spent 36 years in prison after he was convicted of setting one of the deadliest fires in #Massachusetts history. But after reviewing new scientific evidence, a judge set him free. “They took my life away for nothing,” Carver said.

This ICE agent tells an immigration attorney of her three clients: "I'm not picky so I'm giving you the options cause I have to take one. If not I'll take all." He is quite literally saying that ICE is simply deporting people at random to meet a quota. www.instagram.com/reel/DKzbcQe...

PLEASE take care of yourselves! Getting hit in the head with a ballistic or police weapon is an absolute reason to get checked out medically and go get some rest so you can recover. TBIs are no joke, and you don’t have to end up with a hemorrhage or a fracture to end up suffering long term effects.
