Federal immigration goons use their vehicles to confront a crowd of demonstrators protesting ICE in Tacoma, in what eyewitnesses say was an attempt by the suspected Feds to intimidate them. You can see the crowd stand their ground, and the goons drive off.

Putin has seriously twisted his panties lately over Kaliningrad. He has no ground access to Kaliningrad. He has no good air access to Kaliningrad, and a shortage of air cargo transports. He can only reach Kaliningrad through the Baltic Sea. He knows if he attacks NATO, he will lose Kaliningrad.

This is the most heartbreaking stories I’ve heard in a long time. ICE detained 2-year-old Orlin Hernandez Reyes’ mother. She begged to be reunited with him before deportation. ICE refused. What happened next is horrific. No matter how you feel about immigration, normal people don’t like cruelty.
