This woman has been through so much, busted her ass for decades, been robbed and was there for you with champorrado and tamal in 40 below zero.

It's time to give back.

This is a GoFundMe supporting the tamale lady taken by ICE on 21st Place and Damen in Pilsen yesterday.

three people were actually arrested by the cook county sheriff’s office, according to an updated email they sent out.

most of the 15 are charged with resisting arrest/obstruction of justice/disobeying a police officer.

these kinds of charges from protests are frequently dropped bc they’re bogus.

illinois state police arrested eight additional people at broadview tonight for a total of 15 people arrested today, per an update from cook county sheriff’s office.

Heartbreaking reading, but this Reddit thread gives a sense of the relentlessness of the horror inflicted by ICE, and the damage being done to so many innocent people that doesn't make the news.

My rent is paid, so October starts now for my finances.

Of course, disability pretty much runs out immediately once rent is paid, so I'm going into the month on the ropes.

Plus, it's my birthday month. (The 8th!)

So here's the fundraising.

“We will see a similar pricing pattern from last year, where we will have higher prices in late fall and winter due to large bird flu outbreaks. Egg prices could double during that time period, and then, as we get closer to summer, when the bird flu is ramping down, we will see a decrease...”

Egg prices could skyrocket as bird flu cases are spiking earlier than expected

Culls of millions of birds are sending egg prices soaring, with experts warning there’s no end in sight

I am not convinced this is in conflict with what JB Pritzker thinks the Illinois State Police should be doing and he never practiced managing the Illinois State Police, requiring them to bend to his direction in a conflict.

Instead, he gave them a pension sweetener this year.

Live rn from a tiktok user at Broadview, Pritzker still has the Illinois state police out in force protecting 🧊 and brutalizing protesters there

A line of riot gear police with clubs advances on protesters in a “designated free-speech area” near Broadview, Illinois ice facility

Police aggressively clash with protesters, dragging one to the ground

Telling the federal court that IL police can handle Broadview was part of the state's legal strategy against national guard being deployed here.

But it's hard to square that as for the good of protestors or Illinoisans as a whole, when IL police are perfectly willing to drag and beat them anyway.

state police continue to push protesters down 25th street. at one point, cops swarmed a group of people and pushed them to the ground.

multiple people arrested.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.
