There are literally no words for how incredibly devastating this is and it’s only been 5 months.

It would be bad enough if that’s all ICE did to kids in Chicago

But they also

•Descended on them with Black Hawk helicopters

•Unleashed armed men who broke into their homes in the middle of the night

•Removed them from their families

•Zip-tied them

•And detained them for hours

Unconscionable

This term, the Supreme Court could pave the way for states to oust 19 Black and Brown members of Congressmen by demolishing the Voting Rights Act in Louisiana v. Callais

Which would cripple minority representation at the federal level

And gerrymander up to 27 districts for Republicans in total

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Thus far, ICE and CBP in the Chicago region killed an immigrant

Shot a woman 5 times-after allegedly taunting her, saying “Do something, b****”

And shot a priest-who wasn’t remotely a threat-in the head

So when does Governor Pritzker deploy the National Guard to protect citizens from these thugs

Trump’s new law trying to close down health care providers who provide abortion care may take away life-saving primary care and treatment for common chronic diseases in rural areas around the country. Medicaid is a big part of the revenue for rural clinics and without federal funding they may close.
