Wouldn't be surprised. Our family had at one time a possible Wells Fargo nightmare on our hands. They are ruthless.

How shall we know those who believe in and follow the teachings of Jesus? By their t-shirts proclaiming how Christian they are? By the size of the cross they wear? How loudly they pray in public? No. By what they do to serve other people. Only that.

The deployment of troops and militarized federal agents in Chicago is unnecessary, harmful, and traumatizing. We reject any attempt to use fear as a tool for division. https://lnkd.in/gsU7Auqa | NAMI ...

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

The only ones stealing land around the vicinity of that building that was invaded last week are white people who want to live off Lake Michigan and trying to introduce gentrification.

As a native Chicagoan, I am simply appalled at the assault on the city and the lies coming out of the mouths of this administration. It will only escalate. Where is the humanity?

Happening now: at Kedzie and 40th, where Border Patrol agents just opened fire on rapid response this afternoon. A woman CFD says they found after the incident is reported in fair condition.

A growing number of outraged neighbors have gathered across from ICE/CBP agents who have closed Kedzie.
