The statement claims that they’ve been deployed to protect ICE and federal property.

Goosebumps watching this. Chicagoans fighting for this country. Mass collective action is the only thing that can keep fascism away.

NBC news: The discussions come as Trump has sought to deploy National Guard troops in several major cities β€” including Los Angeles, Chicago and Portland, Oregon β€” saying they’re needed to reduce crime and protect Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials from protesters. Critics have said that the Trump administration is exaggerating issues in those cities.

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

Is it time that we all do pre-interviews to be released when we get sent to the antifa gulag?

Why I fucking hate Broadway. I'm a huge fan of Winter, and of course Reeves... performed segments Waiting for Godot in my drama class in high school and was looking forward to this... until tix came out and even the worst tix were out of my reach.

Not a single ICE officer has been arrested or detained by the City of Chicago. The Mayor and the Governor are doing nothing to protect it's residents from ICE.

Considering neither have done anything but some strong words... this is pretty wild. Their police forces have been protecting ICE and going after protesters.

When they refer to "Chicago" they do not mean the City, they mean it's residents. The City of Chicago is doing everything to help ICE, via it's massive and violent police force.

This is all the extension of giving law enforcement powers that no normal citizen should have - the ability to kill American's with impunity. After BLM protests in the streets for months both sides of the political spectrum came together and increased police powers and budgets.

I’m not scared of the dimwits or necessarily the guns. I’m just being practical. They also have the armed forces and cops… and frankly both parties if we were to ever actually rise up.

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

People like @itsjefftiedrich.bsky.social need to stop trying to convince people that Republicans were anything but what they are now. They just used to be held back by a Supreme Court, a public that wasn’t red-pilled and an opposition party that had a some spine.

When in either Jeff or my lifetimes were Republicans not festering fascists?

The state should have nothing to do with marriage. Good for CT for helping people get the protections of being a resident through marriage.
