For more than an hour Wednesday, several armed ICE officers repeatedly shouted the name of a man from the outside of a Gresham apartment.

Maricruz Andres, 24, and her 3-month-old baby were inside, along with her stepfather and brother. None of them recognized the name that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were yelling, she said.

The family didn’t come out. But the officers finally came in, pushing through the apartment’s locked door and then busting into the bedroom where Andres and the others had taken refuge.

The baby’s wail could be heard in the background on a video that Andres took as the officers arrested the two men, leading them out of the room with their hands on their heads.

The agents displayed no warrant, Andres said. They had rifles drawn when they opened the room’s door, the video showed.

ICE Barbie Ripped For Splurging $172 Million on Luxury DHS Jets The Department of Homeland Security has reportedly shelled on two high-end Gulfstream jets for Kristi Noem and other top members of the department.

Kristi Noem has been holding up FEMA funding for Americans in need all year.

But now she wants to spend $172M in taxpayer money on luxury jets for her own use.

Sheer corruption.

When I was a kid, bedtime was 9 pm. I couldn't wait to be a grownup so I could go to bed anytime I wanted.

Turns out that’s also 9 pm.

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.

They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.

Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .

Thank you.

Paragraph from Martin Luther King's Where Do We Go From Here:

"The curse of poverty has no justification in our age. It is socially as cruel and blind as the practice of cannibalism at the dawn of civilization, when men ate each other because they had not yet learned to take food from the soil or to consume the abundant animal life around them. The time has come for uS to civilize ourselves by the total, direct and immediate abolition of poverty."

some poorly drawn medieval cats, they look very tired, one of them is shooting arrows with a bow, one of them is practicing its sword moves, and the other one is loafing

Exactly. Art shines like a beacon when it’s dark and difficult to turn on the light. Keep creating.

This feels like we’re in one of the Jurassic Park sequels where a lot of us were like “hey let’s not try this again because last time the dinosaurs got loose” but other people were like “well, maybe the dinosaurs won’t get loose this time.”
