ICE agents chase farmworkers during latest raid in California: video
Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents chased after migrants working at California farms in the latest set of raids that triggered days of protests. Footage uploaded to Instagram from a produce farm in the city of Oxnard, about 70 miles northwest from the riots in Los Angeles, shows the moment ICE agents target a man working in the misty fields Tuesday morning. The farmworker attempts to flee from the two officers, who easily chase him down and handcuff him on the ground. 4 ICE agents chased after a farmworker in Oxnard, California, on Tuesday. ABC7 4 The arrest was one of dozens taking place on Ventura County farms. ABC7 The arrest was just one of several that took place Tuesday in Ventura County with the help of the FBI, leading to protests and anxiety in Southern California. Daniel Larios — of the United Farm Workers Foundation, a nonprofit that advocates for all farm workers in the US — said the wave of arrests is not targeting violent criminals, but workers who maintain the Golden State's agriculture. 'They're just taking innocent people who are trying to build their own American Dream,' Larios told ABC 7. 'This is not law enforcement. It's a campaign of fear against people whose only 'crime' is living and working in the US.' 4 The FBI's Los Angeles office said it assisted with the arrests in Ventura County on Tuesday. FBI Los Angeles/Instagram Oxnard Mayor Luis McArthur condemned the raids as 'unjustified and harmful,' claiming the arrests have done nothing to improve public safety, only 'create chaos.' It remains unclear how many people were detained during the joint operation with ICE and the FBI's Los Angeles office, but the Farm Bureau of Ventura County — which represents local farmers, ranchers and agricultural businesses — said dozens of immigrant workers were arrested. The farmworkers' arrests triggered protests outside Oxnard City Hall, with hundreds calling for the migrants to be released and for ICE agents to exit the county. 4 Oxnard residents protested ICE's arrests and presence in Ventura County. NBC4 Oxnard Police Department Chief Jason Benites has said his department does not take part in, or assist, ICE's activity. Southern California has become the hotbed for the Trump administration's immigration raids, which kicked off five days of violent protests across Los Angeles that have pitted Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom against President Trump. The escalated violence led LA Mayor Karen Bass to implement a curfew on Tuesday night after days of riots, looting and clashes between protesters and police, which has resulted in more than 150 arrests.

DHS Official Picks Fight With Kim Kardashian After She Speaks Out Against ICE
One Department of Homeland Security official seems to think she can throw down with a woman raised by Kris Jenner. On Wednesday, Tricia McLaughlin, the DHS assistant secretary for public affairs, decided to pick a fight with Kim Kardashian after the reality TV star simply exercised her freedom of speech. Amid the ongoing anti-deportation protests in Los Angeles that were sparked by a rash of terrifying U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, Kardashian made it clear on her Instagram story Tuesday that her values align with the demonstrators. 'When we're told that ICE exists to keep our country safe and remove violent criminals — great,' Kardashian began her statement. 'When we witness innocent, hardworking people being ripped from their families in inhumane ways, we have to speak up. We have to do what's right.' She continued, 'Growing up in LA, I've seen how deeply immigrants are woven into the fabric of this city. They are our neighbors, friends, classmates, coworkers, and family.' 'No matter where you fall politically, it's clear that our communities thrive because of the contributions of immigrants,' she wrote. The beauty mogul concluded, 'We can't turn a blind eye when fear and injustice keep people from living their lives freely and safely. There HAS to be a BETTER way.' When Kardashian's statement made its way to X, formerly Twitter, Wednesday, it seemed to really get McLaughlin's Skims in a twist. '.@KimKardashian, which one of these convicted child molesters, murderers, drug traffickers and rapists would you like to stay in the county? These are just a few of the convicted illegal criminals who have been picked up in the last 72 hours,' McLaughlin wrote on X, alongside images of a few men who have been detained by ICE in Los Angeles, per some very colorfully worded DHS press releases that include quotes from McLaughlin. Kardashian, who graduated from law school in May, has an interesting history with the Trump family. In 2018, she met with President Donald Trump during his first term to advocate for prison reform, and later claimed she helped soften his stance on crime (which, apparently, did not work). In 2023, the president's eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, was pictured at Kardashian's birthday party, upsetting many of Kardashian's fans. The American Horror Story alum also seemed celebratory on Trump's inauguration day in January, posting a caption-less photo of first lady Melania Trump's outfit to her Instagram story that same day.

Aspen Police Department Warns Kids Having Fun Is a Crime
"When you see this, do you think it's just fun? Or do you think that it's illegal? It is definitely the latter. Whether it's fun or not." This is the beginning of a Facebook post by Colorado's Aspen Police Department (APD). What is this possibly fun but definitely illegal activity? The post includes a photo that shows two children on a bike—one child sitting on the seat and the other on the first rider's lap—riding on a sidewalk. "Colorado law says that two-up riding on a single seat bike is against the law, and of course, bikes are not allowed on sidewalks," the post continues. "These 'Sidewalk Sallys' could potentially hurt themselves or others." (If you had to Google "Sidewalk Sally" you are not alone, as it's not a real term. A daytime talk show seems to have coined and used it once, unrelated to riding a bike on a sidewalk.) The APD post goes on to inform Aspen's citizens that this behavior could result in a "ticket or a trip to the emergency room," both of which seem like rather dramatic consequences for an activity that has been popular since the invention of bikes. The tone-deaf post is signed "The Aspen Police Department—protecting the Wild West on two wheels since the 1880s," which seems to inadvertently imply that APD officers get around exclusively on bikes. The post has garnered over 300 comments—far more than the department's other posts—most of which are not thankful for the Department's caution and concern: "Tell me you don't have real crimes in Aspen without telling me you don't have real crimes." "'Kids never go outside anymore!' Proceeds to police every single thing kids do." "Lol yes. Our children should really be playing IN the traffic. Not away from it. Got it." (That one really resonated. My mom made me ride on the sidewalks, so it's not obvious to all of us that biking on the sidewalk is a crime.) Many of the comments were very libertarian-toned, naturally: "So basically every kid since the bicycle was invented has broken the law!" "Find a crime to deal with or reduce your force." "The more laws you make, the more police you have to hire to enforce new laws, the more police you hire to enforce those new laws, the more criminals you make. This pattern doesn't stop one day. It keeps growing." Several commenters asked if the page was satire, while one dealt a devastating blow: "Colorado used to be cool." Despite this, in 2022, Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signed the Reasonable Independence for Children law, clarifying that "a child is not neglected when allowed to participate in certain independent activities that a reasonable and prudent parent, guardian, or legal custodian would consider safe given the child's maturity, condition, and abilities." Utah passed the first such law in 2018 and has since been joined by Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado, Virginia, Illinois, Connecticut, and Montana. This year alone, Georgia and Missouri also passed similar legislation, with Florida expected to follow soon. Let Grow, the nonprofit I run, supported all of these laws and continues to work with broad coalitions to see legislative protections for childhood independence enacted. No child should be treated like a criminal for riding a bike with a friend. And no police department should be proud of doing so. Facebook commenters know this. Hopefully, the APD will catch up soon.
