ICE detain pregnant woman who gives birth in custody—take her baby away after just 2½ days.
Kept separated from her baby for 35 days now—even after all charges against her were dropped.
She is willing to do anything to be reunited with her baby—even if that means self deporting back to Mexico.

i’m at the brooklyn training. amazing energy.
@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

On second review, this looks to be just smoke grenades / flashbang. Bovino has been carrying around a CS gas canister in his hand though, so not ruling out that gas was deployed elsewhere this morning—it's been incredibly chaotic, with agents attacking people in multiple locations.
Federal immigration agents have deployed gas in Little Village, on 26th between Komensky and Pulaski, per videos shared online after 11 am this morning.

This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

These operations would be unlawful even if those murdered had all been criminals. But it's important to show just how much deception is involved from start to finish in this gruesome charade.
The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists.
They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver.
