Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

Heavy California Highway Patrol presence that just showed up in Alameda, California, with what we can confirm is about 30 or more sitting outside the perimeter seemingly waiting to be called in. They’re calling for protesters to move out of the road to clear the way for people to exit the base.
