at least 2 people abducted in cicero, 2 in humboldt park/hermosa, 3 in garfield ridge. sightings in schaumburg + hanover park.

More vehicles with masked Border Patrol agents inside departing. It's a busy, busy morning for the secret police.

hello from outside the ice detention center in broadview, illinois.

i’m at the corner of 25th and harvard, where a small (for now) crowd is gathering to protest the masked federal agents abducting people throughout chicagoland.

state and local police have already made a handful of arrests today.

Alright weirdos, gooners, and so on - it's the weekend so make sure you're getting some rest. Make some coffee or tea, drink some water, take your meds, and give yourself something good to eat. Don't let these fuckers work you to death.

“I’ve spoken with over two-dozen rather senior people in the datacenter universe, and there was an interesting and overriding theme to our conversations; no one understands how the financial math is supposed to work. They are as baffled as I am, and they do this for a living.”
AI Data Centers Are an Even Bigger Disaster Than Previously Thought
An investment manager realized he made a crucial mistake — and that his grim prediction about AI investments may not have been cynical enough.

Mark Bray wrote a book on antifascism and was trying to leave the country with his family after being targeted by right-wing operatives and receiving death threats:

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

“Let Republicans have the literal blood of American citizens on their hands—and make that the central issue of the shutdown. Otherwise, enjoy having your health care subsidy debate in the gulags these people would happily send us all to. I hear that poll-tests great.”
The Case for the Forever Shutdown
Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trump’s government is illegitimate.

Oregon National Guard Adjutant General, General Gronewold says if they are federalized, that he will advise the Title 10 commander to utilize National Guard Troops to PROTECT protesters at ICE facilities. This is the right answer.

Israeli officials just dragged an American Jewish man to his knees, made him take a photo op with the Israeli flag, and yelled in his face and called him a terrorist

This is dangerous territory. The state trying to argue they get to decide who's a "real" journalist is how you end up with only fascist propagandists with cameras.

Govt. attorney wants language added to the TRO giving feds the ability to disperse an entire crowd, incl. journalists.

He cites people possibly "impersonating" journalists to cause chaos.

Plaintiff attys claim this could threaten journalistic purpose, i.e., to act as "the eyes" of a community.

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

This this a hundred times THIS! If you have the slightest hope for the future, a notion of reasonable preparedness or even just a conception of what meaningful relationship means, keep most of it offline and have plans in place for when you don't have access to what you left online.

Connect with your people offline. Take the chats to signal but also take your close relationships offline entirely. We need to be connected when they shut this all down.

What’s your organizing plan if things go dark? Where do you meet? Who picks up what work? How do we communicate?

Its not lost on me that the conservative bugaboo for years was federal troops marching in their states and cities and its the first thing Trump reached for once in power

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.
