Havana rides a bicycle boom as US chokes off fuel to Cuba
Havana residents are pulling old bicycles out of storage, patching up threadbare tires, and, in some cases, learning to cycle as fuel becomes increasingly scarce in Cuba following the U.S. takeover of Venezuela's oil exports.

There's a prison revolt at a concentration camp in Texas in solidarity with Minneapolis:
21 minutes ago

Jazmine Ulloa

Hundreds of immigrant mothers and children detained at a South Texas facility on Saturday protested the killing of a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis, chanting "Let me out" and "Libertad," or "Liberty," according to an immigration lawyer who witnessed the demonstration.

Eric Lee, the lawyer, said he had been waiting for his client in the visitation area of the family detention center in Dilley, Tex., when detention officials abruptly asked him to leave. Once outside, he peered through a chain-link fence and saw hundreds of women and children walking out of the facility and chanting in protest.

Lee said his client later told him on the phone that he and other detainees were outraged over the latest killing in Minneapolis and the detention of Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old boy from Ecuador detained with his father in Minneapolis and sent to Texas.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting
"They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head."
An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries.
"We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.

Representative Delia Ramirez calls for an impeachment investigation against Kristi Noem in the House Committee of the Judiciary
"Secretary Noem has undermined the separation of powers and disregarded the role of Congress and the Courts.

○ After assuring on the record that DHS abides by all court orders, Secretary Noem violated court orders by not turning around deportation flights bound for El Salvador.

○ The Secretary’s rank and file have also continued to disregard court orders under her leadership. In Chicago, DHS agents have used chemical weapons at least four times, despite court orders from District Court Judge Ellis forbidding federal agents from using riot control weapons on November 6th.

It is our responsibility as public servants charged with the Constitutional duty of oversight to ensure justice and accountability when those who hold public office violate their oath and the laws of the United States of America. As such, I call on the House Committee of the Judiciary to conduct a complete investigation into Secretary Noem's unlawful and potentially impeachable actions.
Sincerely,
Delia C. Ramirez
Member of Congress"
