Yesterday, La Murga de Austin - the volunteer band that provides the soundtrack to every Austin FC home game - walked out of the stadium and called out the club for its silence around ICE activities in Austin. Amazing.
"On Saturday, La Murga de Austin walked out of Q2.

This was not an easy decision.

The heartbeat of Austin: the drums, the songs, the colors, the carnivals - we bring all of it voluntarily, out of love for this club and this city.

We love this club.
But love is not silent."We are asking Austin FC to speak out - publicly, with conviction - against the injustice ICE is inflicting on the communities of Austin. The same communities the club says it supports. The same communiites whose faces fill your marketing, whose voices fill your stadium, whose hands and hearts make this place what it is."You ask us to grow the legend.

A legend will never grow without the community as its foundation. Foundations are fractured when the people holding everything up are being taken from their homes, their jobs, their families.We hope our silence is heard as loudly as yours has been deafening to our community and harmful to the culture.

We will not be your soundtrack while you look away."

Bovino, and the John Doe Federal Agents acted under color of federal law and within the
scope of a joint enterprise with the private actors described below. Defendant
Lewandowski acted in part under color of federal law and in part, as alleged below, as a
private person, his federal status having been limited to a temporary part-time designation
that his conduct exceeded. Shirley, Rufo, and Ben Bergquam, and the other non-party
private actors described below, agreed to and in fact participated in the conspiracy alleged
here: each acted in concert with, and with the knowledge and encouragement of, federal
