#DemocracyNow: #NewYork Mayor Eric Adams Orders #RikersJail to Reopen ICE Office

Headline, Apr 09, 2025

"Here in New York, Mayor #EricAdams is reopening an Immigration and Customs Enforcement office inside the #RikersIsland jail complex. Adams first signaled the move after he met with Trump’s so-called border czar #TomHoman in February. The #NewYorkCivilLibertiesUnion slammed the Adams administration for 'selling out New Yorkers for Trump’s dangerous deportation regime.' The group said in a statement, '#ICE’s presence on Rikers serves no legitimate purpose, and opens the door to unlawful collusion between local law enforcement and federal immigration officials in violation of our city’s well-established sanctuary protections. … New Yorkers see this for what it is: Mayor Adams skirting the City Council, cozying up to Trump, and putting immigrant New Yorkers in harm’s way.'"

RE: #Racist murder of #RobertBrooks by 'white' guards in #NewYork

'It shouldn't take a cold-blooded killing captured on film to be a wake-up call to our leaders that the culture of officer brutality in #NY prisons must be stopped. Robert Brooks should still be alive today. His family and loved ones deserve justice and accountability. '

Even with Nassau's mask ban in place, you are not prohibited from wearing a mask. If you are wearing a mask law enforcement cannot:

❌Make you provide a doctors note proving your disability
❌Force you to disclose private health info
❌Make you take off a religious face covering

In response #civilliberties law firm #NYCLU said:
'The Governor's concerns about #masks disguising criminal activity won't be quelled by banning anonymous #peacefulprotest ...A #maskban would be easily violated by bad actors and, if someone engages in unlawful actions, the judgment should be made based on the criminal behaviour, not their attire'
