Chicago is under attack this morning again this morning as fascist foot soldiers and civilians clash outside a feeder concentration camp in Chicago.
Protesters tried to stop an ICE vehicle. The agent kept driving through the crowd. Broadview PD stayed on traffic control on 25th, as the agent kept driving through the crowd.

Ooooh can we get Ben Stiller doing blue steel to play Hesdeath on SNL
The MAGA monocultural revolution is so thorough that Hegseth made it a priority to honor soldiers who carried out war crimes in 1890.

There was no rapture this week, so the quiz returns. Can you score a perfect 11?
