Yesterday, Judge Ellis issued her written opinion in CHC v. NOEM. A scathing 233-pp document of DHS abuses and lies under "Operation Midway Blitz," it will surely go down as one of the defining documents of the 2nd Trump administration. Read our press release here:

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Here in Broadview, outside Chicago, a large group of faith leaders & protesters have gathered this morning outside of ICE’s detention center.

This looks like one of the largest protests on Beach St. in weeks, where the city of Broadview is still enforcing a small “free speech” zone. It’s packed.
