Got this pic in Amsterdam in 2017....how appropriate now

This picture will be in history books.

I wonder what she's being charged with.

Why didnt they just shoot her in the head the way they want to? Trump will defend the murderers.

Jesu Mary Josef what the entire fuck

I hope she wears this to her court hearing!

I just noticed the tears on her cheeks!

The chains followed by actual cuffs really is a powerful image

Thank you for bearing witness. It's important to remember, and pictures are powerful

The way Leo’s going, they might try it

Did you shout "Do you know who I am?" in a Mickey Mouse voice? If not, missed opportunity.

Are you proud for your country? Magas be like:

It is to bad she left the peaceful #NoKings protest at the Civic Center and went with a small band of trouble makers to go throw stuff at the detention center. Besmirches the Lady Liberty costume. No excuse for those agitators trying to ruin our peaceful protesting. youtu.be/osCJ9RDxRX8?...

They are. Snowflakes with guns. Very very dangerous!

Perfect analogy

It feels like cheap satire...

Anyone know her name? Is she on Bluesky?

Reminds me of this one: Greenpeace protestor Gareth Hughs who later became an elected member of parliament in New Zealand Photo uncredited at www.greenpeace.org/aotearoa/pre...

Ah yes: Miss Liberty a threat to the police state

Poignant! Bet she’s Latina too.🤬 #NoKings

“ I’ll be in prison or on the TV and say the sunlight dragged me here” chumba woomba, Bella Ciao

LAPD officers arrest a protester dressed as the Statue of Liberty outside a federal building during a ‘Kings Day’ protest. (Jill Connelly/AP) Don't see Connor Sheets listed. (LOL that it should say "No Kings Day")

That's some Adam Curtis documentary b-roll if I've ever seen any

Bye nice lady.

Cut. Print. Pultizer.

A mural in Las Vegas

Photographer is Jill Connor/AP corrected by Connor Sheets who I believe is the journalist. Truth in media, babies!! 💪🏽

💪💙❤️💪

It reminds me of this print I have by Shepard Fairey. "It can't happen here...", everyone used to say. Now Trump is in charge, anything goes #EpsteinFiles

The best worst part is that she doesn't seem the least bit surprised.

Talk about a picture being worth 1000 words. This photo pretty much sums it up...People need to be using this for Midterm Motivation!

I think the last time I saw ziptie handcuffs was January 6th a while back 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Good one.

Agreed

i mean, yeah. i'd love to see a chart of presidential voting & down-ballot voting by cops all over the u.s. cops have aggregated a lot of power though unions & immunity. certainly, there are a lot of articles about police unions endorsing trump in recent elections. seems most cops love trump.

Karen Bass sends her thugs to attack people exercising their 1A rights. Things are peaceful until the cops use violence.

That second sentence could use some work!

you look like cher

Very few pictures physically drip with irony!!!

BTW Minnesota Public Radio has done a FANTASTIC job reporting in Minnesota. I donated to them. Might we all thank them by doing the same?

Sam Stroozas​ is a digital producer for MPR News 💚⭐️🤜

For some reason ziptie cuffs feel extra gross

This is so ridiculously on point. This should be a photo of the year for the US's 250th anniversary. Maybe that coin being minted with Trump's face on it can be one side and this image on the other side. Maybe this might be more fitting. Our new anniversary coin fixed.

There's bad optics, then there's this. I'm struggling trying to put this into words, but its such a succinct image of the current regime.

Predicted years ago.

This would otherwise go on the cover of Time in another era.

To me this is the most powerful picture from the protests

Wowwwwwww.

That’s an amazing photo—thank you! I’m having a hard time finding the original post of it—the one at the top of that LA Times page is a slightly different and earlier one, taken by Jill Connelly. Do you (or anyone else here) have a direct link to the original?

Symbolic of our times.

Icon

If I were the police I would simply pass on her and arrest someone else to avoid the photo op, and yet —

Yep.

Spot on 🙌

Another.

Now there’s a metaphor

bsky.app/profile/redl...

Pretty much sums up everything Trump has done

The irony is it's accurate for what the Statue of Liberty was supposed to be (chains on arms, not feet nor waist) when it was first created. open.substack.com/pub/idoseeco...

A picture often says so much.

"I told ya!" -- Her face

Why was she arrested?

Arresting Lady Liberty?!? It doesn't get any more fascist then that!

Great costume! She looks Amazing. ✨️ Maybe a pic for the history books.

Wow, if that doesn't say it all....

The new freedom in America😪

nobody told us that liberty had statuTes

Thats going to go on the cover of so many political magazines. Its just WAY too on the nose. Right @chadbourn.bsky.social @iandunt.bsky.social

Trump’s America. And a special thank you to the woman who made this sacrifice in order to get this iconic photo.

What was she arrested for??

It's going to take a #revolution to end it.

I like the cop with the pen & citation book. "So, you said France is your birthplace, Ms. Liberty? And is that Lady with an 'i' or 'y'?

came prepared to make arrests

America has ALWAYS been fascist, you taffer.😡👎

After the rally many and She went to the federal building being used as a detention center and there was a kirfuffle of sorts

Lady Liberty charged with harboring tired, hungry, & poor masses.

Yes, but this is why bullies wrap themselves in the flag when they go and do their fascisms. To get special treatment. That's why the racist bullies wear flags.

100 percent! I saw this as a re-tweet and had to click through to to the credit--and I did, because it struck me as too good to be real and I was about to write it off as ai.

Best chuckle of the week. Tremendous photo.

"I win."

She’s got this vibe! #NoKings!

Welp. There's the ACAB image for the next sign. Pulitzer worthy

I loved watching this arrest. Especially when the police confiscated that ugly ass flag.

Well, that’s a little too in the nose!

This picture is so on the nose…

Hopelessly ignorant and US law here in Ireland. Can someone explain what she was arrested for?

I've heard she came from France, on a boat!!!

That will be historic in so many ways.. well done 👏

New meme has dropped.

damn, the visual irony is stark

Zip ties on Lady Liberty says it all. 🤬

An iconic photo.

wait, is a ticket being issued? why so many popo surrounding Lady Lib—seems excessive?
