This is good. We don't talk enough about the corrosiveness of gambling as a vice. My moderate postition of gambling is that it should not be legal outside of a casino (this includes lottery tickets, scratch offs, etc.) and should certainly not be possible on cell phones.

Good example of why I respectfully disagree with those who think bodycams are useless or actively harmful. In the last 13 months we have repeatedly seen bodycam footage refute ICE/CBP officers' flagrant lies, sometimes even exonerating protesters falsely accused of assault.

Ending this operation is not enough. We need justice and accountability. That starts with independent investigations into the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, economic restitution for businesses impacted, abolishing ICE, and the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here. Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

History rhymes. At the beginning of the Japanese American incarceration- I’ll never call it an “internment” again because fuck euphemisms - the WRA camps weren’t prepared to feed/house not just the sheer # of people, but whole families. Many prisoners had to plant illicit gardens for sustenance. 1/x
