US citizen, 67, β€˜has six ribs broken’ by Border Patrol agents, his running club says The incident unfolded Saturday in Chicago’s Old Irving Park neighborhood, where residents say federal agents disrupted a children’s Halloween parade

A 67-yr old US citizen was returning to his home in Chicago when agents pulled him out of his car, tackled him to the ground and kneeled on top of him, breaking six ribs and causing internal bleeding.

Children in Halloween costumes looked on in horror.

We now live in the GOP's America.

Nine months later, that body of water down south is still the β€œGulf of Mexico” to news outlets Since the start of summer, "Gulf of America" has been losing what little popularity it had in newsrooms.

β€œMaybe it’s just that people have been saying Gulf of Mexico for 500 years and don’t easily accept change,” writes @joshuabenton.com @niemanlab.org www.niemanlab.org/2025/10/nine...

The House That Never Belonged to Him What Donald Trump did to the East Wing is what he’s done to America itself.

He destroys because destruction is the only way he knows how to feel powerful. He resents what he cannot create. He resents beauty because it reminds him of everything he will never be. And so, he does what he always does.

He ruins it.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally β€” almost certainly incomplete β€” includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

I’m running for governor.

For over a decade, Greg Abbott has made it easier for billionaires to profit while hardworking Texans struggle to afford groceries, housing, and healthcare.

But together, we can make Texas work for Texans again.

There is a classic Chicago β€œTARGET: RATS” poster stapled to a wooden telephone pole. It’s a yellow poster with rats in red crosshairs and instructs residents to β€œhelp to eliminate the rat problem in this area”. Next to it, I’m holding one of our campaign posters which is in a similar style.

At the top is β€œWARNING” in red text above a red circle with a line through it depicting an ICE agent. A square next to it reads, β€œICE OUT OF ILLINOIS”. The words in the box at the bottom of the poster read, β€œTHIS IS THE REAL THREAT FACING OUR COMMUNITY. WHAT IF WE STOOD UP FOR FAMILIES INSTEAD OF TEARING THEM APART? KAT WILL FIGHT FOR THE AMERICAN DREAM.”

Corporate needs you to find the difference between these two posters.
