This is crazy. Alex is from Brazil, why would they deport him to Guyana? He’s a longtime West Hollywood resident who has been following his immigration requirements. He wasn’t hiding. He wasn’t on the run. He showed up for his required ICE check-in. And that’s where they detained him.

An "Object at Rest" is an animated cartoon by Seth Boyden. He says, the cartoon "follows the life of a stone as it travels over the course of millennia, facing nature's greatest obstacle: human civilization." It was his final thesis film at CalArts. Well done, Seth! I feel bad for the rock though.

Georgia's governor signs a comically transparent law. It makes local elections in 5 big blue counties nonpartisan, to give GOP candidates a chance to win without a party label in places like Atlanta. And it doesn't change anything in the rest of the state, for red counties to know who's GOP.

“Cotton-picking hands” is not a figure of speech. It is a direct invocation of slavery — designed to remind a Black man of his place. Rep Jen Kiggans heard it used against Hakeem Jeffries and said THAT’S RIGHT. If that doesn’t make your blood boil, check your pulse. #JimCrowJen

Ghoulish stuff, and deeply counterproductive. The message this sends to immigrant communities is “Do not call the police. If you saw a crime? No you didn’t. If you were a victim of a crime? No you weren’t. If you see a cop? Run.”
But in Florida, the state leading the country in the number of signed agreements with ICE, Bradshaw's agency serves as a stark reflection of how
rapidly the immigration crackdown is expanding to people seeking police help.
The people detained by the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office include a restaurant employee reporting information on a possible burglary, a mom who reported a theft and asked for help with her son, a crime victim who was in a minor fender bender while taking his son to school, and Sanchez Toledo, who was also charged with resisting arrest.
