Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot by ICE 10 days ago. The bullet is still lodged in his back. He’s been forced to sleep on the floor and hasn’t been given medication, according to his attorney. Now DHS is claiming he assaulted an agent. Can we trust anything DHS says given its track record?

Because there is yet again another article blaming e-bikes for cars killing people, I am once again asking why, as we are facing a climate emergency and the highest gas prices ever, every newspaper in the country has decided to whip people up in a frenzy against bikes.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

ICE injured a man they were trying to abduct, resulting in needing ambulance transport for him to Jersey City Medical Center. At the ER, goons posed as police to try and gain access inside. Jersey City PD assisted ICE and escorted them, demonstrating clear collaboration.

Well, it finally happened. A driver doing a right turn hit me on my bike, in a bike lane. I'm physically ok. My spidey senses served me well; the driver wasn't signaling, but my gut said they might turn, so I slowed down and watched. Slammed on my brakes, so only light contact with my front wheel.

At least 79 kids have been harmed by tear gas or pepper spray during Trump’s immigration crackdown. In most cases, they were going about their days when officers shot chemical munitions near their homes and schools and into their cars. (Published May)

In several cities, judges have chastised federal immigration officers, saying they used excessive force. One former DHS leader called ProPublica’s findings a “bright red flag.”

DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.

DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.
