NG Troops temporarily blocked in Chicago & IL!

Judge Perry ruled the deployment violates the 10th & 14th Amendments & the Posse Comitatus Act.

She called the regime’s recount of events “simply unreliable.”

I literally laughed out loud at my desk when I saw the “new” revelation autism is increased because circumsized babies take Tylenol. 🤣

Available evidence suggests overwhelmingly that people exposed to the rantings of RFK Jr. and/or Donald Trump have a highly elevated risk of developing ignorance.

Headline of USA Today article, October 9, 2025, by Bart Jansen:

Health Secretary Kennedy, Trump link circumcision to autism through Tylenol
Kennedy and Trump have warned pregnant women not to take Tylenol. But medical groups continue to recommend the pain reliever for lack of proof that it's active ingredient acetaminophen causes autism.

Good question, but I don’t think so. Air traffic controllers are calling in sick all over the country bc they aren’t getting paid which is causing the ground stops and delays.

Donald Trump and Kristi Noem won’t let the American people see what is going on beyond this barricade at the Broadview ICE facility — even as ICE terrorizes our Illinois communities.

It’s absurd and it’s un-American. We demand transparency and accountability NOW.
