Evening all,
Thank you to everyone who followed along with my coverage of this demonstration in Chicago today.
I love this work, but as an indie journo, for the moment, I'm pretty reliant on community support to do it.
Your support helps me to keep on reporting.

We've raised a lot of money for my school community neighbors.
And I predict all of it will be depleted by the end of this week.

I'm so glad there's more attention on the violence, trauma and lives lost due to this federal occupation.
AND we also need more attention on the less visible but INTENSE impact on our neighbors who haven't been able to leave home for weeks, are hungry, scared & at risk of eviction.

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in.
Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.

ton of factors at play here and trying to boil it down to any one on it’s own will be inherently missing stuff- but it really is hard not to notice that once the victim is an average looking white man all the average looking white men in charge of the news realized they can just tell the truth

Friends don't let friends follow AltNPS
Completely insane. AltNPS claimed to know the name of Alex Pretti's killer, refused to say it because "the truth always comes out," and then just deleted the post.
A man was executed on the street in my hometown, and AltNPS is using that as an excuse to vaguepost for attention.

I cried in the car yesterday and apologized to my partner for pushing for us to move here. He stopped me and said "This is happening here because of the same reasons we wanted to move here. This is the place we should be."
It says something to me that neither Renee Good or Alex Pretti weren't originally from MN- but that they embodied what makes Minnesota wonderful: neighbors.

By Saturday afternoon, some Trump admin. personnel had already begun scouring the internet and other resources trying to find information on Alex Pretti, including social media posts, that could tie him to what Team Trump call “extremists,” two sources familiar with the matter tell @zeteo.com …

We still don't know the names of the ICE agents who killed Gonzàlez behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September.
They were unmasked in this BWC footage from Franklin Park police.

I'll also add, if you can't protest for whatever reason, replying to people on the ground at protest sharing content with alt-text and captions can be a good way to participate.
I'm very pro team alt-text, but also have sympathy for how hard it can be to type in the cold for people on the streets.

Once again, I ask you that if you are sharing images in your post, particularly those involving news & activism, you include alt text so that your message is accessible to everyone. Disabled people are among the targets of this administration & there is no inclusivity without including them.

just gonna throw out a quick reminder that in America police kill a yearly average of 3 civilians per day, routinely in situations very similar to these ICE killings, and decades of explicit support for police impunity by US politicians is why ICE feels theyre able to get away with this right now
Our government is murdering the citizens of this country. They are doing it without any checks on their violence
