Quickest way to confirm that the AI bubble will imminently be popping is to watch two boomers interact with AI agents at an airline.

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.

They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Home Depot thinks it's cute to use $14.88 for sale and clearance items.

We cannot normalize this! We must show Home Depot what happens when you fail the community

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

Threads post from julieceye

At my local Home Depot today in Evanston, IL. They abducted 5 people in my immediate area.

My understanding is that Home Depot uses Flock automatic license plate readers #APLR and Flock is known to share data freely with ICE.
@404media.co writes about this.
If you drive to Home Depot, you could be tracked wherever you go if cities also connect their Flock cameras to the national network.

A family member just sent this to me from Chicago O’Hare Airport-

Wow, Uber driver just told me there are delays getting rides bc ICE raids in the uber/lyft lot. Over 200 arrests today

Still 10 ICE agents in the lot forcing you to show your license to get out.

Happening last 3 days

BREAKING: new racist Republican groupchat has been leaked to Politico featuring texts from Paul Ingrassia, Trump’s nominee to lead the Office of Special Counsel.

Ingrassia’s texts include vile pro-Nazi & racist messages targeting Black people, Chinese people, and Indian people.

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."

(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

Maybe planning a permitted protest a month in advance isn't the most effective then?

Weird that people are traveling to Chicago for business when the federal government is illegally and violently attempting to occupy the city.

After over managing all playoffs, Hinch played it safe and lost big time last night. For once, his pitchers gave them a chance for 14 innings. But AJ lets Keith go 0-5 with 3 strikeouts, after doing nothing all series.

"Since September, at least six unhoused Chicagoans have been abducted by federal agents. That number is likely higher, but the social invisibility and isolation already faced by people experiencing homelessness make their disappearances harder to track" by @katieprout.bsky.social @mulchy.bsky.social

Make It Make Sense: ICE targets Chicago’s homeless community

Plus: state and local leaders crack down on anti-ICE protesters and advocates ask the chief judge to keep ICE out of county courthouses.
