Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson:

"Private establishments can partner with us to make it clear that private property is private property and ICE cannot enter establishments without a valid warrant ... If Congress will not check this administration, then Chicago will."

So, when do his fundy advisors tell him that's not how it works. It's much easier and harder than that. Can you actually see him agreeing with God that he's been a POS his whole life and only accepting jebus' sacrifice counts?

Wow, crazy. AI generation is cool and all, but completely irresponsible as a mass media and individual tool. Unless you're financing your own nuclear power plant to generate the images.

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

And he explains it well. However, understanding the situation by itself does nothing to resolve it. Is there a plan?

Considering Act Blue's reputation (and personal experience of their tactics), forgive me if I don't jump at the chance to donate.

If you have the strength, protest on October 18.

If you don't, but have the means, support the protests by bringing food or water to hand out to protesters.

If you don't have the strength, and don't have the money, encourage others to go.

I am not a terrorist!

This morning, theย Trump Administrationโ€™s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Dear Murkowski, Thune, Collins, Tillis, Ernst, Cassidy, Capito,

When the ICEStapo shatters glass on a baby in a car seatโ€ฆ and pulls a zip-tie tight on a childโ€™s handsโ€ฆ and throws a woman to the groundโ€ฆ

Those are your hands doing the harm EVERY time in EVERY place.

You have failed as humans.

ICE officers stopped a family at gunpoint and smashed the car window on top of the newborn baby. โ€œI was screaming that there was a baby,โ€ cried the mother. โ€œBut they didnโ€™t care,โ€ and covered the baby with their bodies, fearing that the glass would hurt him.
