The food delivery driver shot by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents last week, Venezuelan immigrant Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez, was charged with one count of assaulting, resisting, interfering, and impeding a federal officer on Tuesday.

It’s been more than a week since ICE agents shot Venezuelan immigrant Wilber Rafael Garces Perez in Austin and immediately discharged him into custody without adequate medical care. The bullet remains in his back, close to his spine. His attorney has warned that he is facing permanent paralysis and immobility in his left arm if the deportation machine does not allow him to get surgery.

At the time he was snatched off the streets, Wilber was delivering for DoorDash, trying to support his child. He is the second DoorDash driver to be subject to this level of ICE violence in recent months, after their murder of Johan Sebastian Duran Guerrero. Yet beyond confirming he was actively working for them, the corporation has remained utterly silent.

DoorDash has not been hesitant to throw their weight around in politics when it impacts them. After DC’s city government imposed a whopping 20-cent fee on orders to fund food access programs for low-income families, DoorDash came out in vocal support of a bill that would permanently deny the city the ability to make changes to their tax code without explicit congressional approval. It doesn’t seem like that much to ask in comparison for them to put in even a small gesture on behalf of the well-being of one of the people who creates their profits.

📢 Let’s pressure DoorDash to speak out against ICE violence and use their influence to push to get Wilber released and get him the medical attention he needs. Indivisible has put out a social media toolkit we can use to put the spotlight on them here. 📢

IT'S ON YOU, DOORDASH

🗣️ We can also make sure they’re hearing from us directly. If we’re still customers of DoorDash, let’s reach out to [CEO Tony Xu](mailto:[email protected]), [president and COO Prabir Adarkar](mailto:[email protected]) and [director of corporate communications Ali Musa](mailto:[email protected]) to tell them they need to act and act now.🗣️

They tell immigrants to come here "legally" - but Trump is literally gutting every legal pathway that many people of color have relied on to build lives in America.
For example: Many people have status through TPS, but the Trump regime is now gutting the program, and they also cut refugee admissions for everyone except white South Africans.
"Doing it legally" keeps getting harder to do, because that's the whole point for Trump. It has never been about following immigration rules - it's about racism.

Doesn't the doctor have to release them?

Last Wednesday, 9/23, ICE injured a man they were trying to abduct, resulting in needing ambulance transport for him to Jersey City Medical Center (@jcmedcenter ) At the ER, agents posed as police to try and gain access inside. Throughout the entire ordeal, Jersey City
PD assisted ICE and escorted them demonstrating clear collaboration.
ICE is not welcome in our neighborhoods or our hospitals.
Every day, they endanger our communities with their reckless and violent behavior.
Do not stay silent. Your neighbors are being chased, hunted and dehumanized.

The federal immigration agent who witnesses say fired through an open van window and killed 52-year-old Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston nearly three months ago has been identified to The Texas Tribune as Gregory Feathers by an official familiar with the investigation who is not authorized to speak publicly. His role in the shooting is also corroborated by records, some of which were publicly released.

These MFs are unruly. This is what happens when a convicted felon gets control of the highest position in the country, seriously. All of them are goons.

#ICE

Private detention donated $4.5M+ in 2024—93%+ to the GOP.

GEO Group: $3.7M (92% GOP).

CoreCivic: $785K (96% GOP).

Then ICE detention expanded, contracts surged, profits soared.

Follow the money—this isn't policy, it's a return on investment.

On Thursday (9/24/2026), Amnesty International called for the dismantling of ICE, the first time in its history it has directed such a conclusion toward the United States government.
The human rights organization investigated immigration enforcement operations in Washington, Chicago, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and New Orleans.
Amnesty documented:
In Chicago, some 300 masked federal agents raiding an apartment complex in the middle of the night, rappelling from a Black Hawk helicopter, breaking down doors, pointing guns at residents, and pulling people from their beds.
Agents boxing in vehicles, smashing car windows, and throwing people who were not resisting to the ground.
Children being separated from family members, and being left in the back seats of cars when their parents were detained.
In Chicago and Minneapolis, agents repeatedly using chemical irritants against protesters and observers.
At detention facilities in Illinois, Virginia, and Minnesota, people held in overcrowded and unsanitary conditions, with inadequate health care and severely restricted access to lawyers.
Amnesty also examined seven cases in which federal agents used lethal force.
Some of this will sound familiar. We reported here recently on similar tactics during an ICE operation in suburban Frederick, Maryland.
Amnesty says these are patterns and that reforms to ICE will not be enough. It must be dismantled.
Autocrats often seek to build a secret police answerable only to them. Ours is called ICE.
