If youโ€™re in Illinois and youโ€™re disturbed by the images that youโ€™re seeing of the Illinois State Police in Broadview this morning, please call now. It will honestly take 30 seconds. I spoke to a real person.

thirty dollars a month for a monthly pass to play video games is insane. it costs $7 to buy slay the spire on PC, another $7 to buy it on your phone, and maybe another $7 for a hypothetical third device. that's your gaming budget set until slay the spire 2 comes out

Toad stands in front of an ice cream shop, clutching two towering scoops of what appears to be chocolate ice creamโ€”though their inky hue suggests a confection of unusual mystery. His jacket flaps open, his belt sits a little loose, and his wide, bare feet root him to the ground in sheer frozen-dessert determination. Under the dappled shade of a summer tree, he is a creature of pure, unbridled indulgence, caught in the delicious dilemma of where to take the first bite.

Toad went to the store. He bought two big ice-cream cones.

Toad licked one of the codes. โ€œFrog likes chocolate best,โ€ said Toad, โ€œand so do I.โ€

Community members held a vigil in Cicero tonight for those abducted by ICE in recent weeks. After a prayer from a local pastor, the group marched through the parking lot chanting โ€œยกICE, escucha! ยกEstamos en la lucha!โ€ and โ€œICE son los ilegales. ICE son los traficantes. ICE son los criminales.โ€

The agents' attacks were notably distinct from prior days in that officers went after people who were simply gathered to support the active protesters. Officers forcibly removed people sheltering from tear gas in vehicles, resulting in the separation of a child from family members who were bringing food in support of the protest. Agents fired weapons at specific protesters in direct response to their First Amendment-protected statements and snatched protestersโ€™ signs. Officers also confiscated tents used for shade, as well as food, water and first aid supplies, and peopleโ€™s bike helmets and other personal property, putting them in a dumpster in the restricted area. When some of those present tried to leave in their vehicles.

National Lawyers Guild of Chicago is a very reliable source with numerous legal observers at protests and meticulous note taking and info gathering. This is how they say things seemed different Saturday at Broadview ICE detention center.

If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
