What you’re saying is the federal government is ignoring the temporary restraining order that was issued yesterday?

Wonder who’s going to actually do anything about this considering there’s no real mechanism in place to stop this now that the federal government is ignoring the courts openly

Based on all the social media reports, today may have been the busiest Friday for ICE activity that we’ve seen since this surge started.

With hundreds of police now protecting ICE’s facility for them, presumably ICE is able to deploy more agents to snatch people.

Not sure why Tom Dart is enforcing Broadview's arguably unconstitutional executive order but he and the State's Attorney are making some interesting choices these days regarding both immigration and protest of federal abuse

earlier this morning, cook county sheriff’s deputies kicked me and a couple other reporters who were standing by ourselves off a public sidewalk because it wasn’t “free speech” hours yet or something idk.

It'll be for the judge to decide, but it definitely appears feds couldn't even last 24hrs without violating the first amendment TRO. Cool.

(*In more ways than one here—both by arresting a journalist and by not wearing IDs)

Trump just threatened to impose severe, unprecedented tariffs on Chinese imports. He won’t negotiate with Xi at the upcoming APEC summit, choosing to sink the global economy. The Dow is already down 300 points. This will devastate American small businesses and cause your expenses to skyrocket.

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning.

A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

You can FDM print pretty translucent objects these days, think like for a light diffuser. You can still do a mold and use acrylic or whatever but there are cheaper/easier ways of doing it without a mold processes. Changing the infill, speed, and more can get you most of the way there with post

Happening now: we're at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago.

CCSO + Broadview police are telling protesters + press they can't stand on the west side of 25th Street for any reason.

We asked what the precise public safety issue is. They just said they're anticipating cars coming through.

I'm pretty sure this is an AI-generated logo. If you look at the other versions of it on their website, every single bird is slightly different (the feet, the head, the bag).

I mean, this sucks, no?

A screenshot of the Sackbird website that says "seek the sack" (horrible) followed by four images of a black bird with a bindle and a human arm. there are minor variations in the art - some birds have bigger heads, or more fingers, or flatter feet.

Around 100-150 people singing and playing instruments on the lawn here. Extremely chill.

Across the driveway, a large number of state troopers and sheriff's officers have set up a tent, arrest wagons, a staging area.
