My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

On the other side was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for his help.
"I wasn't planning on letting her stay, but I didn't know what the hell was going on," the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.
"I didn't want them to take her," said the man, who didn't want to be named because he fears he'll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.
"I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her,
'Just stay there. Don't open, don't, shh, just stay quiet," he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears.

The worst thing is I have laryngitis and I’m desperately trying to heal my voice, but she’s making me reflexively yell YOU’RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR!!! over and over.

It is 6:04 and she is trying to make me go to bed.

My tiny dog often goes to bed really early and then decides it’s time for me to go to bed too. She barks more and more impatiently while I yell “YOU’RE NOT MY SUPERVISOR!” She always wins though.

But I have thought of a brilliant gambit: “GO TELL HR ABOUT IT!”

This seems to have stumped her. HA!

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

I have laryngitis and I’m pitiful and that’s why there’s nothing sad about me eating reheated pho from a gigantic salad bowl that I’m hunched over like a goblin.
