This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

alabama authorities threatened violence to any black person that showed up for The LCFO's first convention, but the organization said "bring it; we'll have 3500 armed farmers waiting for you!" the federal government made alabama back down, fearing black armed resistance across the nation.

It's a shame that left & non-regime journalists are still focusing on and replaying Schmit's self-own and failed gotcha moment over and over instead of Sen. Cory Booker's 12 min speech in full. What most journalists magnify reflects the algorithms that keep us in the same downward spiraling loop.
