This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days.
ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
I was in this crowd from the West Village to MSG to Times Square and despite what some would have you believe it was mostly love, joy, and immaculate vibes. Amazingly running into different friends on each block - cheering, laughing, and dancing. Knicks in 5!!!

A woman is killed every ten minutes by an intimate partner or family member.
Every. Ten. Minutes.
Femicide is a global epidemic being propped up by patriarchy and enabled by rape culture.
Authorities are investigating a reported murder-suicide that occurred inside a home owned by former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax
The man shot the woman before shooting himself in what appears to be a domestic-related incident, police say wusa9.com/article/news/crime…

ICE did it again - released a detainee far from her home without notifying her family.
Three days after having an ankle monitor put on by ICE, 31 year old Daphy Michel was found unresponsive at a bus station. She died later that day.
Daphy was seeking asylum in the US. Her brother lives in the US and has TPS status.
She had a hearing scheduled for April on her immigration case.
Her brother was waiting to hear when she would be released so he could bring her home.
ICE hasn’t answered questions from Pittsburgh’s Action News 4 about when Daphy arrived at the ERO Pittsburgh office, when she received the ankle monitor, how long she was in custody, and where & when she was released.
Haitian immigrant last seen in ICE custody—found dead on the street 3 days later.
Agents drove her 1 hour away from home for processing—then released without notifying her family.
Her body was found near a bus stop.
Police say she had "significant mental health episode" that landed her in county jail.
But ICE picked her up after judge dismissed all charges and drove her 1 hour away to Pittsburgh.
"Told her brother charges were dismissed on Thursday. She doesn't come out on Friday. He gets a call on Monday that she's dead," lawyer explained.
"It seems perfectly reasonable if you're going to take someone all the way up here and that far out of their element—you could just as easily have driven them back."
Daphy Michel, only 31 years old, was living and working in Penny under Temporary Protected Status as a Haitian refugee.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.
ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.
You know when people cheer at sports events? Yeah, I finally understood that feeling. #mayormamdani

.@AOC says of Mamdani victory: "A lot of people...are willing to talk about party unity when it serves them, but not party unity when it serves everybody."
"We have a future to fight for, and we're either going to do that together or you're going to be left behind."

Somebody today said something about it only being 3 days. And I was so genuinely confused, 3 days of what I asked? And then it hit me. I just don't understand time anymore.
Please donate as you can, as much as you can, as often as you can to Sumaya and her beautiful family, who lost their home in the wildfires.

Incredible to think we're going on with our day to day as I see messages come through from friends whose homes, places of worship, and livelihoods have burned down in the wildfires. What are we even doing?

NYC Physicians at @DoctorsCouncil are striking next week due to unfair labor practices at NYC Health + Hospitals and its private affiliates.
Today, I spoke with Dr. Gray Ballinger, a primary care physician at Queens Hospital Center, about why ~1,000 doctors are going on strike.
