Dayanne Figueroa was on her way to get coffee before heading to work when she encountered a chaotic scene in West Town: heavily armed, masked federal agents making arrests on a residential street. 
People yelled as vehicles honked their horn β€” a sign now used to alert neighbors that immigration federal agents are in the area β€” and witnesses said federal agents had arrested several landscaper workers presumed to be in the country without authorization. 
As Figuero tried to drive through the 1600 block of West Hubbard Street on Friday, Oct. 10, an unmarked vehicle driven by federal agents collided with Figueroa’s as it tried to speed away from a hostile crowd, multiple videos reviewed by the Tribune show. 
Seconds after the crash, agents abruptly stopped their vehicle and exited with weapons in hand pointing at Figueroa, a U.S citizen. Agents then forcibly opened her door and pulled her out of the vehicle by her legs without identifying themselves, presenting a warrant or informing her that she was under arrest. As bystanders yelled, β€œYou hit her! We have it on video!” agents ignored the crowd and forced Figueroa into a red minivan and drove away. 
Her car was left behind in the middle of the road, her coffee still in the cup holder, and her keys in plain view.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Article citing Cuomo signing legislation to create tuition free college.

Article citing Cuomo signing legislation to create tuition free college.

Forbes estimates Mamdami’s net worth at $200-300K. Cuomo’s net worth is around $13 millionβ€”but what’s even better is how Forbes begins its article describing Cuomo’s wealth.

Clearly, when Cuomo does it, it’s admirable largess. When Mamdani does it, it’s class warfare.

This is also ridiculous because other cities and states are already doing a lot of what is in Zohran’s agenda!! Boston has multiple free bus lines, Massachusetts has a millionaires tax, New Mexico is implementing universal childcare. And Zohran did get a pilot program for buses already! 😩

Why did you pardon him?  PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Okay, are you ready? I don't know who he is. I know he got a four-month sentence or something like that. And I heard it was a Biden witch hunt. And what I wanna do is see crypto, 'cause if we don't do it it's gonna go to China, it's gonna go to-- this is no different to me than AI.  My sons are involved in crypto much more than I-- me. I-- I know very little about it, other than one thing. It's a huge industry. And if we're not gonna be the head of it, China, Japan, or someplace else is. So I am behind it 100%. This man was, in my opinion, from what I was told, this is, you know, a four-month sentence.  But this man was treated really badly by the Biden administration. And he was given a jail term. He's highly respected.

The full CBS interview with Trump about the pardon of Binance's Changpeng Zhao is shocking. "Why did you pardon him?" "I have no idea who he is. I was told that he was a victim ... They sent him to jail and they really set him up. That's my opinion. I was told about it."

Counties also have incorrect addresses in the state system for 11 polling places, risking sending some voters to the wrong location.
