"I cannot begin to tell you how difficult and unnerving it is to have been in Chicago these past few weeks; to exist indefinitely in the contradictory space between knowing and living."
Bridging my current life in Chicago and my past life in D.C., I argue today at @newrepublic.com that Democrats should ~never~ vote to fund this government. Make John Thune blow up Senate rules and Republicans wholly own the U.S. extra-military military doing war crimes against us, funded by us.
The Case for the Forever Shutdown
Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trump’s government is illegitimate.

(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.

FACT FOCUS: Democrats did not shut down the government to give health care to illegal immigrants.
FACT FOCUS: Democrats did not shut down the government to give health care to 'illegal immigrants'
This is false. Democrats say they are pushing for the inclusion of key health care provisions in the next congressional spending package.

The Trump administration has given Gov. JB Pritzker an ultimatum: deploy 300 Illinois National Guard members or the federal government will federalize them. Pritzker called it "outrageous and un-American."
Trump seeks to call up 300 Illinois National Guard troops, Pritzker says
The request to the Illinois National Guard comes after Pritzker said earlier this week the Department of Homeland Security requested deployment of 100 military troops to Illinois “for the protection of ICE personnel and facilities.”

Vaccination eliminated measles from the U.S. 25 years ago. But it can still spread in pockets where vaccination rates are low, like the west Texas county with a current outbreak. Here's how fast.
As the Texas outbreak grows, how contagious is measles, really?

None of us can be sure what will “work.” You try multiple things and find your way in. Read some histories of the Civil Rights Movement by those who participated. They were never “sure” of what would work. Some campaigns fizzled out. But persistence, creativity, determination, and focus were key.
