ICE Is Cracking Down on Chicago. Some Chicagoans Are Fighting Back. Residents have begun forming volunteer groups to monitor their neighborhoods for federal immigration agents. Others honk their horns or blow whistles when they see agents nearby.

As the intensity of the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown has risen, residents of Chicago are increasingly pushing back. Federal agents repeatedly have been observed releasing smoke bombs, tear gas and pepper balls to disperse residents who gather or capture videos.

The original illustration for the "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" poster by Drew Struzan. This is before the billing block, tagline and the title treatment were added. There's no one in the photo to provide the proper scale, but it must have been about 5 feet in height, if not more.

It depicts Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones and Sean Connery as his father. Allison Doody, John Rhys-Davies, Denholm Elliot and Michael Byrne are on it as well.

When I visited The Kennedy/Marshall Company in 2017 this was the first thing I saw as soon as I stepped off of the elevator. It's the original illustration by Drew Struzan.

Kudos to the residents of PDX for understanding the assignment and delivering the goods.

Their absurd protests robs the president of any and all of the optics that he craves in these occupations. His masked paramilitary meatheads look ridiculous standing next to a happy dancing inflatable frog.

Thank you. MAGA is flooding the zone with anti-Bunny hate which is anti-Latino hate including change.org petitions. We need to show them and the NFL he has more supporters than haters.

Please sign the petition.

Republicans are saying that these cuts will be reinvested into Medicaid for people who "deserve" it.

If that were true, the budget would stay the same. But that's not what's happening. Why?

Because down the hall, they are trying to finance tax breaks for billionaires.

HAPPENING NOW: Republicans are putting health care on the chopping block / X HAPPENING NOW: Republicans are putting health care on the chopping block

It’s 2 am and we’re still marking up massive cuts to Medicaid.

While their constituents are asleep, Republicans are trying to take away health care from 13.7 million people to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

They want you to tune out. Don’t ⬇️

IMHO, sounds like they’re asking, β€œWhat steps would you take to make this happen?” Like what a producer would be tasked with. You’ve already done a lot of the creative work- by writing the script!
