You guys seein' this sh*t?
Shocking border patrol raid in Chicago: Agents descend on apartments with helicopters, zip-tie children, sparking outrage and revealing extreme tactics in controversial immigration crackdown.
βThe White privilege so many of my fellow black-square-posters promised to exercise has vanished. Apparently speaking out for people of color was only applicable through the 2020 election, didnβt you get the memo?β

ICE reportedly opened fire on rapid responders on the southwest side this afternoon.
There are *very few* details on this available at this time. Treat all rumors with caution until verified.
This Sun-Times article cites a DHS statement that should be treated, as always, with extreme skepticism:
