You know us. For years, you watched and listened to our coverage of the Chicago area. As journalists, we did our best to bring you accurate, objective information about the people, events and issues that mattered. We hope we gained your trust. So please trust us now when we say that what is happening in the Chicago area is wrong. The fact that some federal immigration forces may be leaving soon is cold comfort given the damage they’ve done and what they may do in other cities. We are retired, but our colleagues who are still on the job have shown you a brutal and illegal campaign against fellow Chicagoans, mainly Latinos: violent abductions, gutting families, using tear gas around children, roughing up witnesses, ramming cars and even taking a day care teacher from her school.

"You know us...So please trust us now when we say that what is happening in the Chicago area is wrong."

Powerful letter from retired Chicago broadcast journalists about what ICE/CBP is doing to our city: "it is terror"

Fact-check: true 😕

Trump taps Ingrassia for new role after texting scandal Paul Ingrassia, who withdrew his nomination to lead the Office of Special Counsel last month, says in a farewell email that he’s moving to the GSA.

🧵The Racist who could not get confirmed by the Senate now moves INSIDE Admin! Perfect qualifications. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

the thing that strikes me about this — again, besides it being false — is the venom and disrespect for the people who come here to work and build better lives. they aren’t “servants.”

We inherited” is the new “but her emails.” They take responsibility for nothing. Who deported workers in the food production industry? Who imposed massive tariffs on finished goods, agricultural products. and raw materials? Who promised to lower prices “on day one”?

REP. MASSIE (a Republican): “Trump will protect you if you vote the wrong way… if you vote to cover up for pedophiles — but I would remind my Republican colleagues this vote is going to be on your record longer than Trump is going to be president.”

Great idea!!

America's most notorious child rapist, Jeffrey Epstein, said this man was the worst person he'd ever met. Let that sink in.

Pelosi: "Trump is a vile creature. The worst thing on the face of the earth. Because he's the president of the United States and he doesn't honor the Constitution of the United States."

Here’s a website that can help you find a local food bank and/or pantry.

Again, if you can‘t donate money or food, consider donating your time. Allowing people to go hungry is not what we do.

🚨🚨DAMN‼️Go off Sen Rosen(D-NV) 🔥💥🔥She does not mince words when she confronts Sen Moreno (R-OH) about the Republican shutdown. Democrats have found their voices and as you see in this clip they’re not afraid to use it anymore!! Keep fighting these anti-democratic asshats.

Trump's own lawyer just admitted to the Supreme Court that American consumers pay 30%-80% of these insane Trump tariffs.

Over the next 10 years, Trump says they will collect over $4T in tariffs.

So that means American families are going to be paying $1.2T-$3.3 trillion dollars in TARIFF TAXES.

Let. Them. Cook.

Please don’t fall for Thune’s bullshit of negotiating after the gov reopens.
YOU KNOW HE CAN’T BE TRUSTED!
And he doesn’t even have the power to do anything bc you know Trump can just come behind & tear it up!

NEAL KATYAL IS ARGUING FOR SMALL BUSINESSES SCOTUS

TRUMP'S ATTORNEY ADMITS THAT AMERICANS DO PAY THE TARIFFS

I’m re-upping this, even though I know it won’t matter at all, but I want maybe a few extra people to know that the White House liaison to DHS—who is already known to have expressed Nazi tendencies—linked yesterday to a well-known white nationalist’s web site.

Boycot worked!

Colorado Republicans' strategy to rebuild through school board races collapsed on Election Day with sweeping wins for candidates endorsed by teachers unions. The CEA estimates it won 80% of its races. Jennifer Meckles reports:

Turns out all those No Kings protestors are real people .... and they vote.

Those MAGA tears taste delicious!

If your success in elections depends on one person you are not a political party you are a cult. #MAGAtears

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Pope Leo calls for ‘deep reflection’ about treatment of detained migrants in U.S. “Many people who have lived for years and years and years, never causing problems, have been deeply affected by what is going on right now,” Chicago-born pope says.

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world:

'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..."

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Fvck!
Our work is NOT done.
"Centrist" Senate Dems are negotiating to end the shutdown in exchange for "promises" to extend #ACAcredits down the line.

GIVE ME A BREAK.

Hit those phones, and target those "centrist" Senators.

👇 Pay attention because this is the plan. They have tried to take away the ACA since 2010. Let's fire Johnson next year. I am about tired of him.
