At least a thousand but most likely more folks marching in Chicago to protest the deployment of the National Guard and continued ICE raids. Chanting "whose city our city!"

R run states have atrocious healthcare! Alabama for instance, outside of the 4-5 metro areas, if a person has a head injury, they can and often Do wait up to 2 hrs for an ambulance. Then have a hundred mile ride in that ambulance to see a Dr in a hosp.

Look at his eyes - pure panic.

These "federal agents" are like clumsy mall cops with guns. No training, no control, no clue.

It’s a miracle they haven’t shot each other yet.

They're a danger to the public.

Weird to see Tammy Duckworth didn't sign on and neither did my own House Rep (a dem). Guess they're getting letters?

Based on what I’m seeing on X from Qatari, Palestinian, and Israeli sources, this Gaza deal appears to be happening for real.

The details will reportedly be released later.

Starting to see celebratory videos coming out of Gaza: children jumping up and down, young men dancing, women praying.

May God protect all of the people in Gaza as this deal moves forward.
