I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

They are treating people worse than mere numbers, not even bothering to track them once they’re in the system. Unacceptable.

In LA, we have the right to film law enforcement in public spaces, as long as we do not interfere. Arturo Hermosillo says he was arrested for doing exactly that. He was in his van when he saw an older woman, a local tamale vendor, lying on the ground during an immigration raid & started recording.

Stock market predictions for 6/23 Raytheon , Lockheed Martin and Northrop Dynamics will soar....welcome to wartime.

Happy Juneteenth! It's hard to believe that anyone at any point in time, actually thought owning people was okay. Go back as far as you want, they had to know it was wrong. Celebrate this day of freedom.

ICE deports Florida pastor's wife even though judge issued stay of deportation order. She was denied her medication—shackled by wrist, stomach & ankles, leaving severe bruising. Daughters: "We paid everything they asked us, filled out forms, and not skipping anything.”
