This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

UPDATE: In emailed statement to me / @reason.com, DHS alleges that WGN-TV producer Debbie Brockman "threw objects at Border Patrol’s car and she was placed under arrest for assault on a federal law enforcement officer."

When local news KATU posted this on Instagram, they had to clarify that the music was coming from the protesters and hadn't been added as editorial comment. 😂

This is a declaration of war against United States citizens

Great show in D.C.! TY

Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said.
 
Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any.
 
Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.

Is Stephen Miller a White Supremacist? Journalist Tiffany Cross joined Michael Harriot for a ContrabandCamp live discussion on the made-up controversy involving the influential White House adviser.

Fortunately, we found someone who can clarify things

He has kept among us in times of peace Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution & unacknowledged by our laws.

ICE’s Spectacle of Intimidation Immigrants showing up for court dates in Manhattan must now navigate past rows of masked federal agents.
