In some ways this is the government now

Chicagoans still marching on Michigan Ave chanting "up up with liberation, down down with deportations!"

Coming around to the theory that they're Truman Showing him

This is a really fun and fascinating piece that digs into a reall interesting part of the movie! It got me thinking about other things the vehicle choices communicate. Great piece!

"We took freedom of speech away" should be in every campaign ad moving forward.

Trump is mobilizing the National Guard against Chicago, calling the city a "war zone." Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs are set to play in front of a sellout crowd at Wrigley Field, just like they do multiple times every year with very little incident.

We now have armed soldiers from the state of Texas eagerly volunteered by their governor to impose the president’s will on the citizens of Illinois.

Across Chicagoland today, more kidnappings continue. Immigration agents have taken people from Waukegan, Elgin, Glendale Heights, potentially some other suburbs. In the city proper, feds just snatched someone near Peterson and Pulaski—and earlier today, they grabbed someone from Little Village.

(shared with permission) ICE/CBP has been active on Chicago's northwest side this morning—and also met with rapid responders.

Agents reportedly abducted one man from this Dunkin at Belmont and Milwaukee around 9:30am before speeding off.

Feds were actively arresting people just a few miles away while he was giving this interview.

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.

My anxiety is so high that I had an anxiety dream about my husband's alarm and I woke up and woke him up telling him he missed his alarm and now he's late for his flight. It was 3.50 am and he still had another hour and a half before it went off. I went back to sleep but I don't think he did. 😟

My dad always leaves voicemails that sound like someone died, "Melissa this is your father please call me as soon as you can" then I do and he's like "hey sup"

It should be very very clear to everyone right now that the Attorney General was asked under oath if she possesses pics of the President with undressed teens and she refused to say “no.”

Please not Dolly

PAY ATTENTION: ICE is filing fake 911 calls in Chicago, weaponizing emergency services to provoke local police.

Ordinary citizens would be charged with a felony. ICE calls it strategy.

no one is safe

not a single township, hamlet, or holler

if you have something they want, or targeting you is what they want…they’re coming. the law is fake. no one is going to stop them. until we’re collectively ready to stop them.

ahh hes just a dumb kid who wait a second hold up

My Brazilian friend has thanked us for our tariffs as now export quality coffee is staying in Brazil and she said it's the best coffee she's ever had.

@unraveledpress.com & other press have been threatened, shot with less-lethals and arrested while reporting on federal immigration activities in Chicagoland and on the resulting protests at Broadview.

I'm now at a hearing asking the federal court to rein ICE & co in. I'll let you know how it goes.

Hello yes we are 2 normal fellows
