Still there! Every year now, there's a holiday trolley that drives around downtown for the lights, stop at the Christkindl market and see the zoo lights. On the trolley, they play Christmas music and you can sing, bring your own drinks. Also, the Magnificent Mile Light parade. The BEST times 😊

If you're a holiday person, this is one of the best times to come 😊
So festive

Rev. David Black stood in front of a Chicago-area ICE facility and began to pray.

The masked ICE agents on the roof responded by firing pepper balls, with one striking him in the head

I will not back down.

Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.

What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Donald Trump Truth Social Post: Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also.

Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

This is your daily reminder that Chicago was just voted -AGAIN- the US best big city for tourism. If you voted for ICE zip tying our babies at 1am?!!! May your requested karma be swift and efficient. Stay safe Chicago 🩵♥️

NN: Dems say you won't swear in Grijalva bc you don't want her vote on Epstein

JOHNSON: No. It's scheduling

NN: But there have been Rs sworn in during pro forma sessions

MJ: Only reason was bc they flew in their family

NN: So if she flies in her family you'd do it?

MJ: Again, it's a distraction

Day 8 of President Trump’s shutdown:

I’m alarmed that federal workers, including TSA agents and air traffic controllers, will miss their first full paycheck this Friday because of the President’s federal shutdown.

This is no way to run a government.

I hope you are following as many Dem congresspersons as possible because everyone is going all out messaging about the shutdown. I don’t want to hear ‘only ___and ___ are doing anything’. Pay attention and join in. WE need to do OUR part to help. Messaging is not just up to politicians.

All these Alderman who did not sign and show favoritism towards the violation of Chicago residents should have to answer to the constituents they serve.

The TRiiBE @thetriibe.com · 14h

Chicago Ald. Gregory Mitchell oversees the 7th Ward, which is home to the South Shore apartment building at the center of last week’s ICE raid.

He didn’t sign the letter.

Mitchell has not yet publicly issued a statement on the raid.

thetriibe.com/2025/10/so-a...

So, about that letter of support for Chicago Ald. Jessie Fuentes: 13 alderpeople didn’t sign it • The TRiiBE

The letter describes what the agents did to Fuentes as an “abuse of power.” Mayor Brandon Johnson, City Clerk, Anna Valencia and City Treasurer Melissa Conyears-Ervin also signed it.

If helping Gaza was really important to Greta & her fellow faketivists, they would've brought actual aid & delivered it through the appropriate channels rather than bringing nothing so they could criticize Israel after attempting to break the blockade in what was nothing more than a publicity stunt.

Chuck Schumer @schumer.senate.gov · 1d

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you.

And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it.

This is not about politics. It's about people.

Let’s break it down:

If you live in California, now’s your chance to fight back against Trump’s attack on free and fair elections. Vote YES on Proposition 50.

Early voting starts today. Let’s make sure Republicans know that we won’t let them rig our elections.

I am encouraging all HBCU students to walk right pass these 🦝’s and to NOT engage.

Nothing you say will presented accurately w/ full context to their viewers b/c their views are very low IQ and are not looking for an intellectually honest debate.

There’s no point in talking to these people.
