#photography #fotografie #bridge #newyork #SanisSicht

Immer wieder faszinierend, wie leer eine riesige Metropole bei 13 Grad und Regen sein kann. Gestern dann nur mit dem Handy unterwegs gewesen. Ich hatte vom Schleppen genug, weil ich meinen Koffer an 4 Stationen Treppen hoch und runter schleppen musste 😅 & keine Motivation wegen Zeitumstellung
Hotel: sehr in die Jahre gekommen für den Preis
Essen: indisch (sehr lecker, war ein Glücksgriff)
Status: müde (6:40 Uhr hier)

The NYPD severely beat and brutalized people as they arrested them last night.

Multiple students arrested had to be taken directly to the hospital.

This was a cop riot.

The cops worked to remove as many press people from the encampment prior to the sweep as possible.

Telling detail from the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse (by Nate Schweber for the NY Times): The NYPD is working in the service of the defendant Trump, rather than the people of New York.
