This is great news, but I want to add that this is only one small victory. We can not look at this moment and think the worst is behind us. The struggle for our streets will continue. The forces behind what is playing out with ICE is bigger then just one person. This is a blow, and we should celebrate. But tomorrow we should collect ourselves and get back to the task at hand. All across the country communities are calling for a general strike. The mood is changing, the atmosphere is filling with solidarity. Do not let this victory slow our momentum.

Abolish ICE. Abolish Capital!

I wish him a short, painful, lonely retirement.

He's fucking retiring. This is nothing.

He's been demoted back to his old office and is expected to retire. He's losing the "Commander at large" title.

How will he survive?

You were misrepresenting what occurred. I cleared up the confusion. I had no further point to make, man.

In my opinion, though, he's either a scapegoat or the admin is pissed he forced their hand in messaging so he's being punished for it. It's a shallow victory, but it is telling that the admin wants the appearance of capitulation. I think that we pulled off the largest general strike in decades has them scared the strategy will spread.
