Ellis asks whether it would be appropriate for a man who gets out of his car in running clothes after training for a marathon and asks agents what they are doing to be placed in a chokehold.

That's what videos show happened Saturday in Old Irving Park.

Ellis describes this incident:
As the agents drove away from a confrontation in Little Village on Thursday, “they pointed a pepper ball gun and then a real gun at … Chris Gentry, a combat veteran who was lawfully standing on the side of the road ‘bang, bang,’ and ‘you’re dead liberal.'”

If agents determine crowds pose a threat, they must issue two warnings before using tear gas and other types of chemical sprays, according to Ellis’ order.

Ellis: "This has been a consistent theme through all of the plaintiffs' filings: There was no warning given."

Ellis says she acknowledges that things can change quickly and be "dynamic" and that she is not present

"Kids dressed in halloween costumes walking to a parade" do not present an immediate threat to law enforcement officer and riot control measures may not be used, Ellis says.

About 28 percent of the people the administration has deported have a prior criminal conviction.
Homan: "I can tell you the Trump administration is dedicated to achieving a record deportation, the vast majority being criminal aliens... I'm at the WH working with people like Stephen Miller to come up with strategic policies & plans - how to maintain success & how to get the numbers ever higher"

I lost my job, the price of groceries is way up, my gardener was deported, and they canceled funding for the experimental cancer treatment that was my only chance to live another year. But at least my damn neighbor is afraid to wear a keffiyeh now.

Because they play baseball as some of us were taught it’s supposed to be played. They are more than a group of talents, which, to be fair, can win a lot of ballgames. They play tough, tight, smart, and together.

Those who'd sneer at outrage over the White House fancy themselves slick. Ears to the ground. They don't concern themselves with frippery when there's a war to be won. Well they don't know a goddamn thing. Symbols are powerful, and politics is a game of using them to your advantage.

Epstein, gun-running, that's self-evident. But it's difficult to emphasize how much Andrew has always offended Charles and Anne. When they show up at your school or church or business, they believe in it. They know everything about it. They help it find money. To live this way offends them.

President Nixon significantly expanded the federal food assistance program, making it truly nationwide by 1973 and increasing participation fivefold 1969-74. While he fell short of his pledge to end hunger in America, he maintains that hunger is a barrier to prosperity and peace.

Imagine a D president were refusing to spend money Congress provided for priorities only important to Rs while also spending money on purposes he wanted that Congress didn’t even provide.

Would a funding bill that lets the president keep illegally ignoring the budget be “clean?” Of course not.
