Clifford βBuzzβ Grambo patrols the streets of Baltimore to keep his neighbors safeβand make federal agents uncomfortable.
I love him. βThe first time I caught up to [ICE], I could tell that they already knew who I was. They had seen me before, so they thought they were just going to speed away. I was like, βHa ha, bitches, I got a new scooter!ββ

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.
At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

Meta has removed a Chicago ICE-tracking Facebook page.
The move follows Apple and Google removing ICE activity tracking apps from their app stores.
The removals came after a demand from Trumpβs DOJ.
