Carlos Jimenez, a 24-year-old U.S. citizen, was on his way to work at a food bank when he was shot by ICE officers in what a DHS spokesperson calls “defensive shots.” 

On Thursday morning at approximately 6:30 a.m., ICE officers were at Vineyard Avenue in Ontario when Jimenez, who was not in the target vehicle, attempted to pull in front of the officers. 

According to Javier Hernandez, executive director of the Inland Coalition for Immigrant Justice, Jimenez was trying to assist and provide aid to the person who was being stopped by ICE officers. 

After Jimenez was shot in the shoulder, the LA Times and LA Taco reported that he drove to his brother’s house so he could take him to the hospital.

I'm seeing a lot of coverage in very bland terms, now that I've looked for it! But nothing on social.

More proof of the theory that X essentially decides which stories become actual stories, especially acts of terror.

And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.

An excellent deep dive into the Spotify Boycott.
Our greatest power is our economic power.
Coordinated action has the biggest impact.
We hear that the sacrifices are real and painful.
They are an investment in a better future.

They can’t, yet, just execute Americans in the street. So this will have to do to satisfy the psychological needs of a bunch of guys who are deeply, deeply, deeply insecure about how their masculinity is received.

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about.

Because cauliflower is five dollars a head and you can buy five pizzas with the same money.
