New text of the NOPD Policy Manual: In the event a detained individual is discovered to be subject to a Facially Sufficient detainer, officers should treat the incident as a signal 17F – fugitive attachment and take appropriate steps to transfer the custody of that individual to the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office. If the individual is refused by OPSO, a supervisor shall contact command desk for further instructions. (Transferring Custody of an NOPD Prisoner to an Outside Agency is governed by Chapter 71.1 Prisoner Transportation and Guarding.)

When NOPD discovers that a person has an immigration detainer, that person will now be taken to jail for ICE pickup. The new policy went into effect yesterday.

A stunning betrayal, after the administration swatted down our pleas for transparency and community input.

Individual floats in Mardi Gras parades often have a float "Captain". Some people, maybe many people, consider this to be a big deal.

This photo was taken at a Mardi Gras parade in Lafayette, Louisiana. I like it.

The Resistance Louisiana grows daily.

Sen. Bill Cassidy deserves a spot in the Self-Abasement Hall of Fame I thought he couldn't go any lower, but he found a way.

NEW: We sent a letter urging the Oklahoma Statewide Charter School Board to reject an application to form the nation’s first religious public charter school.

Public schools cannot be religious.

Charging a Black journalist under the KKK Act for reporting on a protest is a whole new level of fucked up.

We ate in community, played games and donated gifts to our communities under attack by this regime in ruby red St. Tammany Parish - the backyard of Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La-Dist 1).

Signs of Fascism in ruby red, Covington, LA, St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana - the backyard of Steve Scalise, Bill Cassidy and John (not the good one) Kennedy.

More honks in agreement this afternoon than ever before.
That's a good sign. 😎

It worked for us and earlier today we found out that honking horns will also get you a visit with some masked person. They may threaten to arrest, but they haven't yet. That's good

This is a screenshot of a video from this morning, Wed Dec 10 in Lacombe, LA of a possible kidnapping. Lots masks and big cars. I cut out all of the identifying information except for one of the masked kidnappers. Note the school bus on the left. They kidnapped a person in front of a school bus.

In New Orleans' Woldenburg Park, located on the Mississippi River in the French Quarter stands our "Monument to the Immigrant". We are a melting pot city. Immigration is our jam.

We will survive this assault by the United States government.

We will never forget.
