The 15 year old girl who was dragged from her car by ICE had recently had kidney surgery.

She was thrown to the ground despite screaming “I’m not resisting”

She had to return to the hospital.

These aggressive tactics will disable. They will kill.

They must be held accountable.

There’s been 10 years of countless other things but I regularly still get very stuck on ‘this mf is President? This guy? No. That’s…it’s just not, can’t be’

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

I keep seeing people refer to people like @aoc.bsky.social and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social as radical Democrats, and ... I dunno, I don’t really see it. They just seem like competent young politicians with a fairly mainstream progressive message. Which is why they got elected.

Seems like some of our elected officials could at least appear with injured, beaten and abused victims of this. The GOP would have them with then every time any one of them was on TV, during votes, telling their stories

I don’t think you can “abuse” your right to protest

Broadview Mayor Katrina Thompson's full statement, in which she says she will sign an EO permitting protest "only at the safety zone located at the ICE facility on Beach Street," is up on the village's website.

"There are too many protesters abusing their right to protest," Thompson says.

Image text:

Broadview Shrinks Protest Safety Zones

The following statement can be attributed to Village of Broadview Mayor Katrina Thompson:

“The protests at the ICE facility on Saturday night degenerated into chaos. There were 15 arrests, and 10 of those were around the age of my own daughter. As a mother and a mayor, I am mad. Broadview didn’t choose to have the ICE facility in our community. But it’s here. And so are Broadview residents. There are too many protesters abusing their right to protest. Too many are raising their fists rather than their voices, creating chaos at the expense of the people who call Broadview home. Broadview residents lack the protestors’ privilege to return to calm, quiet neighborhoods for undisturbed rest.

Therefore, I have issued a new executive order, in consultation with the Illinois State Police and Cook County Sheriff, that permits protests only at the safety zone located at the ICE facility on Beach Street.

There will no longer be a designated protest safety zone at 2000 South 25th Avenue between Lexington and Fillmore.

Additionally, it has been only God’s grace alone that a protester has not been struck and killed by a motorist on 25th Avenue given how frequently protesters dash onto this busy, four-lane street. This new
measure will provide for both the serenity of residents and safety of protestors.

As I have repeatedly said, I respect, support, and defend the protesters’ free and – peaceful – speech against the outrageous injustices and deplorable unprovoked chemical arms attacks by ICE agents against American citizens, journalists, and ministers that put Broadview police and firefighters in harms’ way.

Nevertheless, my first priority is to defend public safety and the residents who live here and people who work here. They deserve stability, safety, and respect, a quality of life that is currently being denied to them. They deserve the love and kindness that they expect by being Broadview residents.”

So much talk about an AI investment "bubble" in a market that has significant path dependency and lock in. In a winner-take-all market, it is rational for firms to collectively "over-invest".

I don't even think "bubble" is the correct term here. This is a race and there will be winners & losers.

Define ‘illegal’ first. You mean farm workers who pay social security? How about people here on tourist or other visas?

First let’s hear what illegal is, then tell me why we (richest country in history etc) can’t provide healthcare needs to EVERYONE here, as nearly every other peer nation does

Do you get paid by the bullshit anti progressive post or is it a more overall deal?

No actual left—unless you’re pulling the entirely Trump/Fox shit of some anecdotal ‘leftist’ or singularly Twitter account and pretending it’s a thing—fits this

You’re fucking gross

This is legacy, plus so much more. AFTER election

Leaders don’t take their toys,go home and we wait for their edicts & think that means a goddamn thing. It doesn’t. When they do slightly stick their neck outside of the very small clubhouse they inhabit, it’s too little too late. Fine, be a celebrity, god bless. But we shouldn’t gaf what they say

I mean, fine. And same with Obama and every other president or whomever that does their thing, finished one way or another after a long career arc

But these are not leaders. She’s not leader of anything now, neither is Hillary, neither is Obama. And we see how…disconnected & donor brained they are.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility
By Marcela Rodrigues Globe Staff,Updated October 12, 2025, 44 minutes ago

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.
