Very few local restaurants can produce a lot of “food” on short notice. Even fewer that you’ll have a corporate/expense account already open with that makes billing nice and easy for your admin/accounts payable team.

Family lives near Brentwood and I can absolutely see ICE thugs doing this to them.

If ICE is meeting resistance even in a place like Westbury, then at least something is going right.

We’re calling him a Columbia Protester now instead of a Columbia Student? 😞

Oof he isn’t convicted but the media isn’t saying “allegedly” in headlines for him. Shows how they’re trying to sway public opinion.

Sounds like hypertension, not hypotension.

Hope it helps. There are whole categories of self hosted software I hadn’t thought of before. Maybe I should try some of them! 😁
