Honor the memory of Laura Sullivan by supporting and boosting the ongoing work of @onepeoplesproject.bsky.social.

LEFT COAST RIGHT WATCH@lcrw.news · 5mo ago

This week, we lost Laura Sullivan of @onepeoplesproject.bsky.social, an incredible pillar of antifascism. Laura was one of the first people to reach out & believed in me. LCRW is still here because of her. Featuring comment by @dlj.bsky.social, @jaredlholt.bsky.social, & @mxscottkernest.bsky.social

Yenta was an incredible friend & mentor. The world is a better place because of her work. She inspired, taught, & supported so many in the antifascist community. May her & Mike rest in peace.

Our friends in Frederick will be back out in the streets this May Day, despite police crackdowns last year. Come out & learn about protest tactics, organizing in the workplace, the history of violence against workers in Frederick, & more! 05.01 E 3rd Street Park, Frederick MD 6-8PM 🏴

A red poster with the faint image of an arm holding up a hammer in the background. Across the top in small black lettering it states “international workers day.” In large white text across most of the poster is “workers at the heart of Frederick” and in small black lettering across the bottom “05.01 E 3rd Street Park 6-8PM”

A red poster with the faint image of a flower. In white text are three sections with headers and bullet points under them. The first section is “strike” with the bulleted list: “call out sick, use paid time off, we’ll be here if you have no choice but to work.” The second section is “solidarity” with the bulleted list: “wear all black in solidarity with the Frederick four, workers have always been the heart of Frederick — demand officials govern like it, none of us are free until all of us are free”. The third section is “organize” with the bulleted list: “come meet neighbors already organizing near you, teach-ins available to learn why and how you can get involved.”

A red poster with the bold image of a black key and a white rose with the text “no war abolish ice tax the rich” in white superimposed on the image.

The @washingtonpost.com's Emma Uber & @teoarmus.bsky.social caught @mayorbowser.dc.gov in a bald-faced lie. On Tuesday, she said "ICE is not patrolling with MPD." Confronted that day with video of ICE patrolling with MPD and abducting people handed to them by MPD, she was forced to change her tune.

During an unrelated news conference Tuesday, when asked to clarify what was happening on the ground between D.C. police and ICE, Bowser said, “I am aware of what’s been happening on the ground and ICE is not patrolling with MPD.”
In follow-up comments later in the day to The Post, Bowser reiterated that D.C. police were not on patrol with federal immigration authorities. “Ask federal immigration, don’t ask us ... they’re not patrolling with us,” she said. “MPD is not giving the federal government anybody.”
The Post shared the videos, police report and DHS statements with the mayor’s office on Tuesday. On Wednesday, the mayor acknowledged that D.C. police have been patrolling with immigration authorities, saying “We never wanted MPD to patrol with Homeland Security agencies, but they are part of the task force, and that should change.” (The Department of Homeland Security includes ICE, Customs and Border Protection, and Homeland Security Investigations.)

The vast majority of these things are stuff you'd get a citation for, but the feds are using them to harass people and bump up their arrest numbers to give the appearance of effectiveness.
