I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

I put this map and table together, highlighting the most significant incidents from 9/19-10/25. The area shown is roughly 30 by 35 miles with incidents in all corners.

Aside from Chicago's south side, federal immigration agents have also reportedly been at O'Hare Airport today.

Video shared online ~1 pm shows masked agents in a lot near the airport; O'Hare PD wouldn't independently confirm the agents' presence but said they'd "been getting calls about it."

State rep. Hoan Huynh shared video of agents surrounding his vehicle/stopping him + staffers shortly after he said one agent pointed a gun inside his vehicle at him while another threatened to break a window. They were following feds in Albany Park after four people were reportedly taken.

Witness video shows federal agents throwing tear gas canisters in the middle of Armitage Ave today as they appear to be blocked in and heckled by angry neighbors.

This is around the 3500 block of West Armitage.

Feds in military gear flood downtown Chicago; top border official says arrests based on 'how they look' The immigration agents were spotted making arrests in downtown Chicago and River North neighborhood early Sunday.

In which a top US Border Patrol official, incredibly, tells my tall and Anglo colleague @chipmitchell1.bsky.social that he's not the type they're looking for as they go about downtown Chicago arresting people based on "how they look"

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Earlier this morning around 10:15, ICE agents were spotted near Howard and Greenview in Rogers Park. It doesn't appear they arrested anyone, and they quickly left the area.

Three people and a child play music from a bullhorn and others dance in the driveway of the ICE facility at 1930 Beach St, in Broadview, IL, Sunday Sept. 21.

The scene at Broadview today is calm, no sights of federal agents other than the occasional car going in the front gate. A UHaul truck was backed into the side garage earlier.

About a dozen protesters are holding signs, dancing to Mexican music and yelling “shame” when agents enter/exit.

Via @thetrace.org: From 2015 - 2021, ICE agents were responsible for at least 59 shootings-- 23 fatal. I am embarrassed to admit this, but I had no idea that ICE agents used lethal force so often. www.thetrace.org/2024/08/ice-...

ICE arrested nearly 400 people in Chicago and nearby states in the days after Trump’s inauguration, records show.

Block Club had to sue to get the data — and ICE still won’t say who exactly was arrested. Here’s why we’re fighting to know more: blockclubchi.co/4n5L01T

It's been quiet but looks like ICE just woke up, early report of staging seen in Prospect Heights.

ICE is OTG again, someone just spotted the Chicago ICE SRT guys (not National Guard, impt reminder) alongside other federal agents arresting someone in Cicero.

There's also a report of one arrest in Little Village.
