"This case highlights the significant threat posed to U.S. citizens by frequent ICE errors, which are exacerbated when local law enforcement agencies participate in immigration enforcement...”

Ocean Beach per SFGate.com drone footage
A traffic stop is causing outrage, after a young man born and raised on Long Island was pulled over and searched by ICE agents. He said it was simply because he’s Latino. When ICE found out he’s a U.S. citizen, they let him go—without giving an explanation or apology—but the damage was already done.
MSNBC reporter in gas mask in Los Angeles: I think it was Sheriffs deploying CS gas, tear gas, pepper spray, and flash bang grenades in large numbers.
Mounted units pushing against protesters.., every single gathering I saw today was 100% peaceful

Padilla: “We will hold this administration accountable”
Oh no. 😡 I hate it. Not just the flip, the terrible styling.
No one asked for this.

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.
These DHS agents should be arrested for attempted kidnapping of minors. Lying about parental permission to abduct a 1st grader? Are you fucking kidding?
Worth bearing in mind that illegal entry is a misdemeanor and being unlawfully present in the country is not even a criminal offense, but a civil one. This is the equivalent of saying we need to torch the Constitution & send in the SWAT team to catch jaywalkers & people with overdue library books.
LAPD when they think nobody is watching
Three months ago today, plain-clothes ICE agents abducted Mahmoud Khalil in his apartment building lobby after they'd followed him home.
Free Mahmoud.
Text reading: I had to come down to Los Angeles for Work and ended up trying to help with the raid last night. As a Bernie usefully. Waited by the entrance for detainees We were repeatedly denied access of any kind, and eventually LAPD force removed attorneys ice. Also tear gassed a baby under age two. Today they told us to come back at eight to see the clients, but they ever refused entry to us as well as politicians, including Jimmy, Gomez, and right now. They’re releasing some kind of gas, so the Attorneys can’t breathe
Text reading: Post it so everyone knows. When we were trying to chant their rights ice honked so no one could hear.
Here are some texts I got from an immigration lawyer friend of mine. Shared with permission. Some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever heard.
MAGA voters, I'm sorry, but you got scammed. Will you please help us fix this now.
DOGE doesn't save us money. It will instead cost us a fortune because of sloppy chainsaw cuts like hampering our ability to mitigate natural disasters. DOGE never had a rational proven plan. These would-be kings are playing fast and loose with our tax money.

A post on X from Councilmember Vickie Paladino that reads: “Let’s just talk about how insane it is to elect someone to any major office who hasn’t even been a US citizen for ten years—much less a radical leftist who actually hates everything about the country and is here specifically to undermine everything we’ve ever been about. Deport.”
Death threats. Islamophobic bigotry. Now a sitting Councilmember calling for my deportation.
Enough. This is what Trump and his sycophants have wrought. It’s an assault on the values of our city and our Constitution. Will Cuomo condemn this or will that upset his MAGA donors?
😡😢😡😢😡😢😡😢
“He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other”
"He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired.”
“Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone."

I feel safer already.
Yes.
I can understand a politician making an argument to not pay for saving these lives (though I personally believe it would be cruel, unnecessary, and unstrategic.) But it's unforgivable to blow up the lifeline that we've built for these children without a fallback plan. Murderous.
Devastating.
Major increase in patients with H.I.V. symptoms because loss of antiretroviral medication. Food aid cut so severely that people are starving to death. Skyrocketing levels of severe malnutrition and associated deaths.
- Atul Gawande, former global health administrator
Trump & Musk's cuts to U.S.A.I.D. has resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, with more deaths continuing all year, estimates Brooke Nichols of Boston University.
In San Antonio today, plainclothes ICE officers (not masked this time) arrested, handcuffed, and zip-tied a family of five (yes, ALL of them, including the little children) coming out of their immigration court hearing — which ICE had just had dismissed.

This is deranged and completely untethered from reality.
Y’all, the nerds are screaming out here - RANKED CHOICE VOTING!!
We’ll never have third parties unless we fix the “throwing away your vote” problem. There is a simple, better way to vote. We need ranked choice voting or something similar in every election.
By far the most important thing we can do to support third parties is ranked choice voting which fixes the “throwing away your vote” problem.
