It needs to be said. On repeat.
The answer to our immigration crisis is readily available, and always has been. It requires political leaders (let’s call them Democrats) to tirelessly advocate for legal solutions — paths, programs — to be enshrined in law. 1/

NYT wrote 300+ land page articles in the first half of 2024 demanding that Biden step back as he was too old to lead the US. But in 2026 they write very carefully worded articles normalizing & validating Trump's threats of economic & military war with Europe as a totally normal negotiation.
Why is Trump trying to take over Greenland? He tells Norway's prime minister that one reason is his grievance over not winning the Nobel Peace Prize. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/w...

People here are outside patrolling their neighborhoods in this, trying to keep their neighbors safe from lawless armed masked goons. Armed with whistles and vests, they are essentially fighting a war against their own government and its ethnic cleansing campaign.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
