New YouGov poll finds a majority of Americans believe ICE agent Jonathan Ross should be charged for killing Renee Good.

My latest is the story of how my community has rallied to protect and defend our neighbors in recent days, as ICE has targeted the Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago. "This is not a story about a moment of victory, but a moment of being reminded of our power."
They Came for Our Neighbors. We Showed Up.
Before long, there were dozens, and then hundreds of people in the streets, watching and responding.

I don't expect this to go anywhere, but it's good to see some friction between local law enforcement and ICE. Local governments should push back in every way possible.

Your regular reminder Delft’s market square was a surface parking lot as recently as 2004.
A razor-thin coalition (19-18 votes) initiated a six-month pilot to help merchants realize cars don’t spend money, people do.
Years later, no one remembers the controversy or regrets the decision. *Sound on*
