Here is a cartoon I did of Danny Trejo & Harvey Keitel. Fuck ICE. Pen and ink on paper.
Here is a cartoon I did of Danny Trejo & Harvey Keitel. The cartoon is a drawing of them saying: “Hi we’re Danny Trejo and Harvey Keitel, and we’re starring in a currently filming movie portraying ICE in a positive light. We should never know a moment’s peace for this, but we’re banking on the decades-long mass casual acceptance of ethical apathy toward actors starring in political propaganda like pro-war films and movies promoting fascist values to enrich our careers and boost our social status. It’s pretty fucked up, and it’d be a shame if people stopped letting this happen”. Pen and ink on paper.

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

I spoke to @kattenbarge.bsky.social about the media coverage of “inconsistencies” in Jane Doe’s case, as well as my own experience with USA Today misusing my words in a story smearing her. As always, Kat understands the way victims are punished from coming forward. This article is a must-read.

ICE is now lying in wait outside convenience stores, or at busy intersections. Agents are arresting people at international airports. Local police and sheriffs, deputized by the federal government, are detaining immigrants during traffic stops. ICE is now detaining more immigrants than ever before.
A chart that shows a timeline of ICE immigration enforcement against different significant events (Los Angeles raids, Minneapolis and Chicago raids), with a line in late March 2026 that says "New enforcement strategy begins" before a peak of over 1,500 daily arrests in July 2026.

And you definitely don't want to use a high-powered 532nm green laser, because it can permanently burn and disable digital camera CMOS or CCD sensors. Green light is absorbed at a very high efficiency by these electronic sensors, meaning concentrated beams easily melt or overload the pixel array.
