Beachfront home of South Carolina judge, ex-senator burned to ground, injuring 3 Ex-senator Arnold Goodstein, along with two additional people, were rescued by several neighbors and paramedics from a marshy, remote area behind the home after jumping from the fist floor.

No indication yet from major media that the FBI has any interest whatsoever in investigating this apparent attempted assassination of a well-known judge openly targeted on social media by the far-right activist—Harmeet Dhillon—currently calling herself Assistant Attorney General of the United States

does anyone know if we have america tomorrow

A video from Washington Post on Instagram with the headline “Protests escalate against ICE agents in Chicago” while a famous video of an ICE officer violently assaulting a heckler and tackling him to the ground plays.

What a strange headline to place over this video.

Things to consider:

Document the violence & violations--on camera, w/photos, saving images--any way you can. Speaking as a historian- it will matter

Point out violations--w/images & text--even if you think it won't matter. It will. It needs to be called out & exposed

You are a witness.
Expose it.

Former FCC Chair Wheeler: An autocrat's favorite tool is a monopoly on telling the story. And if you can control the people who tell that story, then you've got an autocrat's greatest dream.

The red flag is the targeting of the near universally-agreed upon parameters of a disabled person. People on disability are not living it up, free of worry or work. It is ALREADY a program that forces a health-compromised person to exchange health care (Medicare) for enforced poverty.

A thing I think it’s important for USians not in currently-occupied cities to grasp is that the normal and everyday goes on alongside the violent and unprecedented.

In Chicago right now you can be forced off teargas-soaked streets in the morning and have a peaceful evening picnic on the lake.

Thanks!

For everyone…

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:

This statement is a clear example of what is known as “State Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.

My daughter came home from work today in suburban Chicago. A co-worker’s family was taken by ICE while he was at work: his wife, kids—a baby. Imagine that. Your fucking baby detained by ICE. IT IS GETTING WORSE BY THE DAY.
Photo: another family taken last weekend while visiting Millennium Park.

Second shooting of a Chicago resident by ICE. First was confirmed killed. Second, waiting to hear details. Who’s contribute to murder and crime in Chicago? ICE.

For those interested in on-the-ground eyewitness reporting in Chicago as ICE wreaks havoc on our city and suburbs, please see below for who to follow. These local journalists are doing amazing, critical work.

🤣Accurate!

Nothing screams “these ICE agents are exurban chuds” more than getting frustrated by the traffic at Armitage and Central Park at noon on a Friday

I don’t even want to think about what they would do at Damen/Fullerton/Elston during rush hour

Every single thing Kristi Noem says or does, every word out of her mouth and every order she issues, reminds the world that this is a person who shot her dog because it was inconvenient. She won’t let anyone forget that this is the kind of person she is.

Logan Square neighborhood in Chicago. Super chill area. Tree-lined streets, quirky coffee shops. And it’s Chicago, so yeah, traffic. These ICE idiots released tear gas to get through Chicago traffic. How are we holding these dangerous goons accountable? What are our rights here?

President Macron:
“We were very naive to leave our public space to social media networks controlled by US or Chinese companies that don’t share our interests and not interested in survival of our democracies.”

wow I wonder why my entire body was in the air in the first place

I know it doesn’t change anything, but I’m pleased to see the local police station in Illinois would not accommodate her.

What trump and miller have done is made the KKK into law enforcement

The GOP(140 former Trump staffers) and the Heritage Foundation started working on Project 2025 in 2022. One thing has become painfully clear: democrats were not working just as hard creating a plan to hold Trump accountable, or to derail Project 2025…should they fail to hold him accountable.

That scene was so powerful. Immediate demonstration that you can be killed for no reason, and in fact killed because you are deemed unfit to live by a random soldier on a whim.

DHS posted a sizzle reel about it.

Taraji P Henson sat up on a whole televised award show and talked about Project 2025 and its implications. Black pastors, politicians, scholars and other celebrities warned about it.

White people didn’t care. They didn’t believe that it would get this bad. Same old song.

Not only did you know, you pointed REPEATEDLY to the source manual: Project 2025. Their manual. Written by the very people now enacting every aspect of it.

White people keep believing in their security without basis, while minorities did the assigned reading. And it wasn’t enough. Again.

After Declining to Give Trump a Sword for King Charles, a Museum Leader Is Out

Very Trump-era story.
1. The sword has no meaning for Charles, but matters for the Eisenhower Museum.
2. Illegal for the museum to give away US property!
3. Trump makes no distinction between personal/public property.
4. The person who did the right thing was fired.

Thank you for covering this story. I’m an Illinois resident and I know it is just a matter of time before another fatality of these illegal searches emerges.
