If Trump hands TikTok over to his billionaire buddies, they could weaponize the algorithm to silence free speech & spread pro-Trump propaganda. TikTok should not be a platform for authoritarian propaganda, whether it comes from China or MAGA. This is scary stuff.

A statement on a red-bordered white background from George Retes, a 25-year-old U.S. Army veteran, U.S. citizen, and security guard at Glass House Farms in Camarillo, California. The statement recounts his wrongful detainment by ICE agents on July 10th while on his way to work. He describes being pepper-sprayed, tear-gassed, having his car window smashed, and being dragged out of his vehicle at gunpoint, despite being nonviolent and clearly identifying himself as a U.S. citizen and employee. Retes details being detained for three days without charges, phone access, or legal help, and without being told the reason for his arrest. He was denied medical care despite injuries from chemical agents. He expresses that such treatment is unacceptable, especially for a veteran, and underscores that this was not just a mistake but a civil rights violation and a failure of justice. Retes calls for a full investigation into ICE's actions, accountability for the agents involved, and broader public awareness, emphasizing that the raid hurt U.S. citizens as well as immigrants. The statement ends with his declaration that he will not remain silent. In the bottom-right corner is the United Farm Workers logo and the phrase βSΓ se puede.β
