May 4, 2024. Tactical units called in to a pop up student encampment for Gaza at the School of the Art Institute. These cops would typically be driving around the south or west sides doing "proactive" policing (harassing mostly Black residents). They dress like this as an attempt at urban camo.

The head of the Mossad spy agency was recently in Washington to coordinate with the White House on plans to expel Palestinians from Gaza. The plan, along with the forced starvation and mass killing of Gazans, echoes the worst of the Nazi Holocaust. mondoweiss.net/2025/07/isra...

β€œEven God Cannot Hear Us Here”: What I Witnessed Inside an ICE Women’s Prison Tufts University doctoral student RΓΌmeysa Γ–ztΓΌrk opens up about her 45 days in a South Louisiana processing facilityβ€”and the generous and compassionate women she met.

"This narrative of human suffering, set in 2025, is filled with tears and resilience. It is a story of women. It is our story. It could very well be your story too."

A stunning essay from RΓΌmeysa Γ–ztΓΌrk on the 45 days she spent in an ICE detention center just for speaking her mind

Protesters and ICE watchers are gathering again outside immigration court this morning, where ICE agents have been kidnapping people after mandated hearings in downtown Chicago.

Sessions have been canceled (and arrests prevented) multiple times this week due to their presence.

Those who are saying that the United States is now a lawless state have not been paying attention. Supporting the lawless Israel as it committed genocide is only the most recent example. Europeans are only shocked that this lawlessness is now being applied to them.
