U.S. Northern Command says that elements of the Texas national guard are now “employed in the greater Chicago area.”

The statement claims that they’ve been deployed to protect ICE and federal property.

Another ambulance arrives at the detention center. Presuming it could be the one from earlier returning, but either way, a grim reminder of what's happening behind the gates and boarded up windows.

Still in Broadview. At this point it's mostly press waiting around to see if they can spot any National Guard potentially rolling in tonight. Plenty of state troopers still on site.

A very silly situation. Cops pushing protesters and press out of the free speech zone. Apparently standing at the corner of Beach and Lexington is still fine, though.

Just before 6pm curfew, a bus pulled up to the ICE facility. It appears they pulled the front into their garage to unload whoever is inside.

Of course at the same time, Broadview PD dispersed press from the “free speech zone.”

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

Law enforcement needs to rein in ICE's anti-press abuses and investigate ICE attacks on independent journalists in Chicagoland.

A coalition of Chicago and national press freedom orgs explained why in a letter to the Broadview Police Department and Illinois State Police today.

Independent journalists must be protected from ICE attacks

Letter calls on local authorities to investigate all attacks on journalists

This is what resistance looks like. Courageous Chicagoans follow ICE cars to warn others in the community of their presence.

NEW — Rod Johnson will never forget federal agents zip-tying his hands behind his back.

The night of the South Shore raid in Chicago, Johnson said he was detained for two hours.

“I’m an American citizen with no warrants,” Johnson said.

HUGE: A federal judge in Chicago just ruled Kristi Noem's warrantless arrests of people unlikely to flee are ILLEGAL. 💪Worse for her, he ordered ICE to report EVERY Chicago arrest for the last 4 months – compiling a record for criminal charges. 🔥

Ellis rules that the plaintiffs have standing for their case. She cites the "ongoing and sustained record of conduct" by federal agents gathered over the last month.

She further finds the plaintiffs have plausibly shown feds have "frustrated" efforts to "protect journalist safety."
