Tim, thank you for saying what needed to be said. Every word was true. Keep speaking up.

Outside Delaney Hall, police kettle. This man was just talking when New Jersey state police (not ICE) under the direction of Gov. Mikie Sherrill forcibly arrested him for his speech. Notice how the troopers are deliberately blinding the cameras with lights. A fascist technique learned from ICE.
