US citizen, 67, ‘has six ribs broken’ by Border Patrol agents, his running club says The incident unfolded Saturday in Chicago’s Old Irving Park neighborhood, where residents say federal agents disrupted a children’s Halloween parade

"According to his running club, the man, who is a U.S. citizen, was returning from a team run when agents pulled him out of his vehicle, tackled him to the ground and kneeled on top of him, allegedly breaking six ribs and causing internal bleeding"

Tbh, the KUOW story did give me an inaccurate impression of the facts. That Wilson's parents started helping with daycare costs this year, specifically due to Wilson's mayoral campaign, seems relevant to me and was left out of the original version that I read.

Pastor David Black was attacked by ICE while praying for immigrants.

During our shadow hearing in Chicago, he shared his story, his fight, and his demand that we all continue to work to protect immigrant communities.

Welcome to the Take, Teen Vogue’s politics newsletter, where we’ll keep you up-to-date on the organizers, politicians, and agents of change trying to save our world — or at least shift things for the better. I’m politics editor Lex McMenamin, and starting today, I’ll be explaining how we’re seeing current events, and sharing our coverage. On Saturday, an estimated 5 to 6 million people joined a No Kings rally in their area, likely becoming the largest recorded single-day action in the United States. But what does one day have to do with all the rest, if you're not sure how to sustain your resistance beyond an event? "Protest is a tactic; it is not a strategy on its own, and it should never be intended to stand on its own outside of a broader strategy," Indivisible’s Leah Greenberg, co-organizer of No Kings, told me the day before the rallies. So we’re sharing some key ways you can get involved in your community today, if you’re not sure where to start. Til the weekend! Lex

Grab your whistles and have one at home, and in your car! Be that neighbor!!
Chicago has hundreds of neighbors who when spotting ICE, go thru the neighborhood with whistles, warning to stay inside (where warrants are required), and at the same time calling neighbors to shame, video and observe.

This is the levy I was trying to find more guidance on. I feel stressed with giving more money that may go to policing/surveillance, but I want us to keep funding the co-response teams.

I appreciate your perspective.

Hope folks feel less alone today, that people join with others to take further and deeper actions, and that everyone fights like hell to protect those most vulnerable to this regime.

Jackie and her four young children were kidnapped from a picnic by ICE.

Today, those kids are still missing their mother.

Listen to Jackie’s friend, Mimi, tell their story:

A meme from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. In the top panel, one man labeled "literally every company" hands a plate labeled "AI" to a man labeled "me." In the bottom panel, the man labeled "me" nonchalantly tosses the plate down the hallway, discarding it with casual disdain while the first man watches.

Time to post it again.

I appreciate you joining on this letter. I hope to see you also calling for an end to weapons sent to Israel, and imposing sanctions as Israel commits genocide.

The number of people who told me last year that ‘it can’t get any worse for Gaza.’

But it always could get worse, things can always get worse- and they have.

We are now witnessing an official, full-blown, US-approved famine in Gaza.

Shameful.

From Famine in Gaza to Trump Cutting SNAP, Child Hunger is An American Pastime "At home and abroad, the U.S. government is participating in starving people, particularly children, and calling it policy."

today a UN body announced famine is in Gaza. this oped from New Disabled South connects US funding of Israel's starvation campaign to Trump's BBB cutting SNAP as fundamentally American.

"The U.S. allegedly has no money to feed its children or the world’s children, but has plenty of money for war."

We asked people who experienced "sweeps" of homeless encampments to write about it in their own words.

In Portland, Teresa Stratton told us about how her husband’s ashes were taken in a removal:
