WOW. Is your stadium going to be an ICE facility? Eyes on Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. Grisly history of dictatorships and stadiums 🤦🏻

"It’s a basic principle of civil society that the increased power given to law enforcement officials is balanced by increased oversight, because the one without the other presents an almost irresistible temptation for abuse." slate.com/news-and-pol...

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

Glad to see lots of elected officials are standing up for @bradlander.bsky.social and our immigrant neighbors. www.rawstory.com/ice-arrest-2...

Statement from @nywfp.bsky.social on NYC Comptroller Brad Lander being kidnapped and unlawfully detained by ICE 👇

Current NYC Mayor/Officer Adams, in his final months in office, owes his freedom to the trump regime and will do nothing to keep ICE thugs from attacking our neighbors and elected officials.

Here's a longer video of Brad Lander's detention just now inside 26 Federal Plaza as he tried to walk a man out of immigration court, by masked federal agents.

Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.

BREAKING A federal judge has ordered President Trump to revert control of the National Guard back to California and Governor Newsom. Judge Breyer said Trump’s order was illegal.

Incredible that Noem, who's anonymous masked goons always refuse to identify themselves, suddenly wants people to believe she had Senator Padilla (who she should have recognized) seized and handcuffed because he didn't identify himself* *lies

noem's attack on the senator from california is not a distraction from her declaring an overthrow of california's elected governments, it's part of it, and brings the fascism to the front

I'm hearing that flying a Confederate flag at demonstrations "is about heritage not hate," but for some reason flying a Mexican flag is not acceptable? 🤔

So *super qualified* Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth thinks trans troops aren't able to be good "war fighters," but cis soldiers with no food, water, fuel, or porta potties are perfectly suitable & equipped for deployment 🤔🤔🤔

During the BLM protests the right successfully conditioned a lot of people to believe that when cops cause chaos, it’s the protesters’ fault for exercising their rights. And more generally that protesting injustice is a problem.

Who among us has ever demanded to see someone's papers before giving them a ride?
