Why, are they retreating in this now?

Haven’t ordered in a year, no more Prime. Honestly haven’t missed it. Just order directly from the maker now.

A producer and editor for WGN-TV was violently forced to the ground this morning by two Border Patrol agents, before having her hands cuffed behind her back, during an ICE action in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood.

Debbie Brockman has worked for the local television station since 2011.

On C-SPAN, people calling out Johnson more than reporters have:

“Hearing you say that ‘everyone is smiling’ in cities where our Guard have been rolled into feels dystopian and insane.”

A Republican: “The audacity of someone who makes 6 figures a year to do this to military families, is insane.”

Earlier this morning, the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado—NOT Donald Trump.

Good. A petty dictator who is prosecuting his opposition, sending troops into US cities, and committing countless other acts of aggression, should never ever win it.

Trump's Peace Prize Fantasy Dies, His Social Media Propaganda Machine Gets Exposed, Mike Johnson Scolded By Republican On Live TV, and Chicago Resists

No Nobel Prize for Trump. GOOD!

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked President Trump from deploying federalized National Guard troops into Chicago.

This ruling reinforces what we already knew: It is illegal for the president to use manufactured emergencies to send soldiers into our cities.
