Have to share another cool picture from Lost Dot. 😁
Caption: Christoph Tapken (314) arrived at noon, sharing how close he’d come to scratching at CP5. At one point, he was ready to jump in a taxi and call it a day, but standing at the Finish in Constanța, he was glad he’d pushed through. More proud of his mental resilience than the physical effort, Christoph is now looking forward to reuniting with his family in Germany.

Pistorius: Europa muss sich auf schrittweisen US-Rückzug einstellen
Bundesverteidigungsminister Boris Pistorius rechnet mit einem allmählichen Ende der militärischen Unterstützung der USA für Europa und die Ukraine. "Ja, das ist so. Das wäre dann so und damit müssen wir umgehen", sagte er auf eine entsprechende Frage im ZDF. Immerhin habe zuletzt US-Verteidigungsminister Pete Hegseth lediglich von einer Reduzierung der Ukrain…

Ask yourself: How many water bottles thrown at cops are worth keeping one innocent American* teen out of inhumane #ICE detention?
For anyone criticizing the #LA protests or suggesting they should stop for any reason, let's be clear about the stakes. Read this article (or my summary):
https://abcnews.go.com/US/massachusetts-teen-detained-ice-family-video-ice/story?id=122511685
This 18-year-old was snatched without a warrant, because he was in his dad's car and allegedly (possibly a lie or mistake) his dad drove recklessly. He's been in the US since he was 5, originally on a student visa that's since expired. He is an innocent American, by any reasonable definition of those two words*. Thankfully, he's since been released on bail, but he may yet be held indefinitely in ICE detention (in inhumane conditions that have been repeatedly documented) and/or separated from his family & friends and shipped off to Brazil where he last lived when he was 5 (ICE does not care whether he speaks Portuguese, has any family there, etc), all potentially without due process (though he seems to be getting that in this case). Even if this doesn't happen to Marcelo due to the media attention & protests, it is certainly happening to other innocent Americans throughout the country who aren't as lucky to have people standing up for them.
Here's Marcelo speaking about detention conditions and those he was detained with:

Do you know how many kids like Marcelo were detained in LA yesterday? Probably zero, because of the protests, including their confrontational tactics. The most "violence" I've seen (from the protestors) is throwing a water bottle at a line of heavily-armored riot police. So the protests are working to protect the community. If you're suggesting a change in tactics, consider whether your suggested tactics (like pre-scheduled non-confrontational protests that have been happening for weeks) will protect the Marcelos of LA.
*Whether he's innocent or American should not in fact matter, but sadly it might to some reading this. If that's you, you've still got some growing up to do.
