An ICE agent attempted to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis, threatening the staff member who prevented him from entering.

Hello? ICE is so out of control that its agents think they can break international law.

Congress needs to rein them in yesterday.

Today, Rep. Castro and I visited precious Liam and his father, Adrian, at the Dilley Detention Center.

My heart absolutely breaks for Liam, his family, and every person being wrongfully detained.

๐ŸšจICE pulls weapons out in the presence of 3 sitting members of Congress. Just another day of tormenting Americans by the POTUS and associates who are willing to burn it all down before exposing those Epstein files.

There is no insurrection in Minneapolis. The violence is instigated and perpetrated by ICE.

Why am I not surprised that he did and said nothing in response to a federal raid on one of his own WaPo reporters?

This administration are going โ€˜all inโ€™ on ICE immigration enforcement, because they have nothing else. No healthcare, no cost of living relief, no education plan nothing.

Earlier this month, I rode a float in the Rose Bowl Parade in order to celebrate Star Trek's 60th Anniversary. I can't believe it's been so long. So much has changed, but our message of holding space for everybody remains at the forefront. (Photo by Rodin Eckenroth/Getty Images for Paramount+)

Apparently Americans prefer guns for school shootings over protecting themselves from a tyrannical government.

I didn't go for too much detail in this painting and that's a good thing. I exhibited and sold paintings at a few galleries for 3 decades or more (this was sold from one of several mixed shows at the Linda Blackstone Gallery which was at that time in Pinner. I don't seek out galleries now because the framing, travel, commission etc does make it unviable - also too much work for someone my age!

One more Cambridge May Week scene, quite a large painting combining materials. Quite an evocative hazy image like butterflies in the mist. This is one of the paintings sold at exhibitions at the Linda Blackstone Gallery a few years ago.

To the "civility" people, saying the word "fuck" is violence, but the cops shooting tear gas is "peace keeping", ripping a parent from their children is "doing their job". They want to control the definition of violence and their monopoly on the use of it.

Jacob Frey: โ€œWe have seen consistent unconstitutional practice by ICE discriminating only on the basis of - are you Latino, are you Somali - & then indiscriminate pickups thereafter โ€” ppl are walking around on the street with their passports. That's not American. That's the furthest thing from itโ€

What we are seeing in Minnesota is what authoritarianism looks like in real time. Racism, dehumanization, and state-sanctioned violence are tearing at the foundation of this country.

ICE agents eat at small-town Mexican restaurant โ€” then detain workers โ€œWould your mama be proud of you right now?โ€ a bystander said as agents returned at closing time to nab the workers.

ICE agents ate at El Tapatio in Willmar, MN, then came back hours later and detained the workers who served them. Turning a meal into surveillance isnโ€™t public safety itโ€™s intimidation. Remember private businesses can refuse service to ICE agents!

Thank you France, Germany and the UK for supporting Denmark and the people of Greenland. People of Greenland need to know the majority of Americans donโ€™t want their country and do not support TFG. However we do support our NATO Allies.

When police wear masks, they are called secret police. That is ice. There is a reason our police do not wear masks. We are living under a factious government. America elected a monster.
