Mayor Johnson Signs Executive Order Designed to Lay ‘Groundwork’ to Prosecute Federal Agents for Actions During Immigration Raids “If the federal government will not hold these rogue actors accountable, then Chicago will do everything in our power to bring these agents to justice,” Mayor Brandon Johnson said.

FULL STORY: The order directs members of the Chicago Police Department to document actions by agents with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection and attempt to identify those responsible for suspected misconduct or criminal violations. @wttw.bsky.social

Buttigieg on Fox News: "When you see an American woman opening the door to her home and on her doorstep finds half a dozen federal agents in tactical gear that is more tricked out than what I would take outside the wire in Afghanistan -- I think most people get that that is wrong."

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

This is tear gassing protesters just for protesting. There is no threat, and the only danger presented is ICE behaving recklessly. There is no provocation; this is just straight up assault.

Yes, we need ALL the Epstein files.

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

Videos released in Epstein files raise fresh questions about jail footage A recently released cache of security videos is raising new questions about the prison cameras at the facility where Jeffrey Epstein died in his cell​ in 2019.

Another question is what happened with the footage from the night of July 23, less than three weeks before his death, when Epstein was found unconscious on the floor of his cell but then revived.

Jeffrey Epstein associate Jean-Luc Brunel is found dead in a French jail cell Brunel, a modeling agent, was being held in an investigation into the rape of minors and trafficking of minors for sexual exploitation, according to the Paris prosecutor's office.

Someone else was found dead in their jail cell who is connected to Jeffrey Epstein & (IMHO) Trump: A modeling agent named Jean-Luc Brunel who supplied girls for Epstein. In Feb. 2022. Death threats become reality sometimes. I pray for the survivors of these perverts.

Russia once again attacked Ukraine at night, with around 300 UAVs and up to 10 ballistic missiles, focusing the main strike on Kyiv. Hits were recorded in Chernihiv, Vyshhorod, Kharkiv, and the capital, where a private hospital was damaged. 1 person was killed, four more got wounded.

Videos from Venezuela shows smoke and explosions in Caracas. The first blast was recorded at approximately 1.50am local time.

The Higuerote Airport, east of Caracas, has been struck as part of the ongoing U.S. military operation. Secondary explosions are clearly visible.

With focus on the 9+ helicopters over Caracas as the impacts are happening around them, the timing of the overflight and presumed landing are within seconds of the helo passes. That is not likely by accident, but part of a coordinated part of whatever op is going on tonight.
