After 30 minutes of standing in a window recess surrounded by people, being hit with water balloons, "marched" to his hotel
He has reportedly retreated / led the crowd to his hotel, very smart guy 🙃
I sincerely hope that all of the bluster of the nonstop national news networks, as well as the massive mobilization of forces, all end up being for a huge nothing-burger. 20 people?! Even ICE recruits better than that.

Thanks to all the folks on the ground and following the video who are sharing all these reports.

Just finished "Far Sector" written by N. K. Jemisin and illustrated by Jamal Campbell. I don't normally go for Marvel/DC comics stuff and this was a good reminder why. Jemisin's authorship was the draw for me here, as well as some curiosity about what I might be missing out on by avoiding the classic comics lineage. I won't go into too much detail about particulars, but suffice to say it ends up feeling to me line a very neoliberal story dressed up in a veneer of radicalism, which is not what I'd expected of Jemisin. Particularly in light of current events, the "good cops" aspects of the storyline ring truly hollow. There's still a lot of neat parts, but I guess I also wound up disappointed by the sci-fi aspects in a lot off ways. I truly think Jemisin is capable of better than this, based on her other (excellent) work.

If Alito steps down (My feeling is that he deserves to be thrown out) then the Senate D's should refuse to confirm any Cheato nominated successor.
Better to let the SCOTUS seat stay empty rather than have yet another trump sycophant.
