The feds really need to get a louder microphone I simply cannot hear a word they're saying

When you have a hammer everything looks like the window of an ICE facility I think that's how the saying goes Apropos of nothing of coursepic.twitter.com/byGTW1sKz9

Huge bullrush back to the park. Lot of brutality. Teargas warning but I didn't need it I can small it through my mask. Too fucking fast for me to get any good footage, I hope others did

Look what I am about to say is probably unfair but if you're on the sidewalk because you can't go fast I get it just please get over to one side so press can sprint and grab footage of this shit they're doing and show the world what they're doing out here

Oh by the way, we've got a riot declaration Journalists have been ordered to "go inside" Yeah, that's a TRO violation

Police have retreated for now. Yackety Sax again as they go. I'll never get tired of that, seriously if that's you playing it you're my hero

As I typed that last tweet, a tomato from one of the luxury condos above splattered at my feet "Everyone's a critic!"
