This is racist & humiliating. Police pull down his pants past his ass to stick a flashlight down there. Only one arrested among 1000 is a young Black kid. Looked 15. Not a protester. His father came. He was in tears from his experience. No crime. Just trauma. More details coming.

A key thing to understand is that Joe Biden is the central figure enabling and facilitating genocide in Gaza. Whether others would do the same thing in his position or do something even worse, he is the one actively doing it. And he should be treated in exactly that way.

Interesting that every killing by every cop is just a single bad apple that never spoils the bunch, while every protest by and on behalf of marginalized people must be flawlessly perfect, lest all participants deserve the brutality the police exist to deliver to them.

This — IU changing a rule overnight & pretending they didn’t – is such a prescient example of why my biggest fear regarding AI is that it will be used to rewrite history and produce the “evidence trail” needed to make the fake version of history look more real than the real one.

(women’s lockup went 12 hours without water being provided despite repeated attempts to let staff know the water fountain did not work).

I will be fighting my charges alongside the 22 other arrestees—people who have become friends during this process. 3/

I was arrested and brutalized along with dozens of other people in Atlanta and hundreds, maybe thousands, around the country this week.

The 23 of us who were kept in lockup at Dekalb County Jail overnight experienced further degradation in inhumane conditions 1/

ABC15 also went through our video footage and found this clip.

ASU’s police chief is in the yellow polo shirt.

You can see him approach a tent, then you see his hand motion and a hole appear to open up in the side of this tent. Dave Biscobing

It’s kind of bizarre to feel the need to say it, but it’s a very very bad sign for a society if one cannot freely protest a genocide, ethnic cleansing, war crimes, mass graves, and the mass incineration of children. That is a very bad place for a culture to be.

It looks like Northeastern is admitting that the 'kill the Jews' comment came from a pro-Israel provocateur but they think this still justifies smearing and arresting pro-Palestinian students. I want to know how this is congruent with any concepts of free speech & academic…

Nick is one of our best students. Cornell suspending him during the Presidents “year of free speech” is incredible hypocrisy. This is wrong.

The clash between actual reporting on this stuff (such as this post) and the punditry of people who never talk to students is remarkable.

I'd like to see some more confirmation of this, but if it is indeed real, this small detail is actually a major escalation. It's why it drives me nuts when liberals say, 'Oh isn't terrible what DeSantis does to colleges,' as if such moves won't spread. Here they are. At Brown.

New Mexico is charging a cop with homicide for racing around at 100 mph and killing a toddler in a bystander vehicle. It is very rare that cops who kill with cars are ever charged.
