Daily Memo: ICE Pepper-Sprays and Throws an 80-year-old Attorney, Arrests a Community Watcher, and Takes Seven From Lompoc
This week, four posts, all about death at the hands of ICE. 😞 We haven’t even gotten to the conditions in Texas Detention Centers, pregnant women and children suffering medical emergencies. 😖
DAILY MEMO: ICE Used 14 Vehicles to Take 6 People from Rancho Cucamonga Courthouse
Today @lataco.bsky.social launched a fundraiser to help me start their investigative news desk. We're hoping to raise $25k to help pay for lab tests, analyze ICE data that the Daily Memo's been compiling + work with more freelancers. Been dreaming of this for years!

Hope @lataco.bsky.social raises well over $25k, been doing incredible work for a minute, now.

Today, on Presidents’ Day, ICE killed a teacher in a car chase in Georgia and sent a 2-month-old baby in Texas’ Detention Center to the Hospital.
Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…
its amazing how chatgpt knows everything about subjects I know nothing about, but is wrong like 40% of the time in things im an expert on. not going to think about this any further
The LAPD is citing truancy laws in an attempt to squash the ongoing school walkouts against ICE. The LAPD is also threatening to arrest any parents or adults who support the kids in their acts of civil disobedience.
TVs across the country as soon as Bad Bunny finishes performing at the Super Bowl.
Just a quick message to L.A., take a breather, enjoy the Superbowl cautiously, be ready for whatever Tom Homan is planning with CBPxICE integration.
Thanks to those who joined our webinar today about covering immigration enforcement in local communities, and a special thanks to our panelists: @eltragon.bsky.social, @franciagarciah.bsky.social, @nigrotime.bsky.social, and
@kevinhfoster.bsky.social.
Did you miss it? Watch it here:
It’s journalistic malpractice to let @mayor.lacity.gov Karen Bass exploit @donlemonofficial.bsky.social to pretend she cares about press.
It’s duplicitous and hurts all journalists.
Her own LAPD has committed hundreds of acts of violence against working press.
She’s never said ONE word about it.
🔔 At the top of the hour: Immigration enforcement reporting can be dangerous.
Learn how lessons from one community can apply elsewhere with journalists @eltragon.bsky.social, @franciagarciah.bsky.social, @nigrotime.bsky.social, and @kevinhfoster.bsky.social.
