Not to sound too corny or like a version of 2019 woke that would be insufferable now but I do hope that everyone who has difficult or painful relationships with their family finds comfort, love, and belonging today.

I think there's a decent chance that the Pope visits Chicago during this presidency and while there asks to see Broadview and I wonder how that plays out.

these people really do look creepyAF

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Pay no mind to that man behind the curtain

New from Bellingcat: “‘Pattern of Extreme Brutality’ — Tear gas, pepper balls among weapons used by federal agents at Illinois immigration protests.” Read the full investigation: www.bellingcat.com/news/2025/10...

NAZI THUG

"Kids dressed in halloween costumes walking to a parade" do not present an immediate threat to law enforcement officer and riot control measures may not be used, Ellis says.

NEW: On the eve of Greg Bovino's court-ordered appearance before Judge Sara Ellis, lawyers in the case ask her to fully bar the feds from using tear gas until she rules on a preliminary injunction. "Something must be done. Defendants are plainly in contempt, and sanctions are warranted."

These fellas are a lot like my pot head brother who was so comfortably coddled in his formative years that he welcomes playing the victim in every shitty circumstance of his own making. Mike Johnson cannot govern because he never had to. Whiny, pathetic bootlickers with zero original ideas.

The guy can’t actually shit on us with a fighter jet so this is the next, best thing.

NEW: Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has issued a new statement declaring that Chicago "communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants."

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification. I glanced down at the message. “Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began. So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/anna...

No Kings Protest in Elgin, IL

Keys to the office? Check! ✅ Sworn in as Congresswoman? Not quite 🙅🏻‍♂️

Incredible photo from @chicago.suntimes.com ‘s Anthony Vazquez. Pointing what looks to be a teargas launcher at someone’s head at nearly point blank range is incredibly dangerous. This is why I prefer a ballistic helmet in the field.

I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS ELGIN - Standing Strong TOGETHER” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

I live in Hoffman Estates & this is just absolutely chilling. If you think they aren’t coming for your neighborhood, think again.

Without provocation, masked federal agents indiscriminately shoot peaceful protesters with rubber bullets from the rooftop of the Portland ICE facility.

“They know that they can’t arrest us just simply for protesting. So instead, they drag us away onto their property and give us felonies for trespassing. That’s how they’re silencing us,” one veteran said Thursday. blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/02/v... via @blockclubchi.bsky.social

Y’all out here trying not to see what’s happening. They dragged every human out of an apartment building in Chicago, separating kids from their families, & took them who knows where. If this isn’t some Nazi shit then IDK what it’s gonna take.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

If anything good can come from my arrest, I hope it's that more people demand the shutdown of the Broadview ICE facility, where humans are treated like poorly kept animals. Stop the deportations. Demand the truth about Silverio's death at ICE's hands.

All Cassidy has done since green lighting RFK Jr.’s nom is cover for his ass. His credibility is gone…much like the Hippocratic Oath he swore as a physician.

I think the only bombshell is Disney's futile attempt to make their decision seem like it was in our collective best interest to have this nonsense cool off period and that we'd all come running back to Daddy Disney. No thank you, you boot licking fascists.

This is amazing. No notes.

We’re protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility and an agent came out to tell us to go away. We said we’re exercising our First Amendment rights so he shot the ground with pepper balls and said, “Your First Amendment rights are on the sidewalk.”

So close to me I heard the low flying helicopters circling this morning. It’s chilling. It’s terror.

“applauded out of relief” to get out of the US. Yikes.

Political violence is meant to scare and silence -- it is absolutely never acceptable. We don't have to agree with someone to affirm they have a right to speak their mind without fearing for their life or safety.

I'm sick after seeing the video of Charlie Kirk being shot. Violence against civilians is never okay. Political violence — no matter who is hurt — will always beget worse political violence. And it has no place in our country.

Mark your calendars and tell your friends: No Kings 2.0 on October 18. The sequel will be (and HAS to be) even bigger.

The DEI panic attack from the beginning of Trump’s 2T is bearing fruit. Just think about how much worse this gets.

Y’all this is not enough. They stole a whole professional living from authors—they should be out of business.

Maybe we're all tired of centering ourselves around conservatives. Y'all are loud & mean -- and in the fucking minority.

Suffice to say: THIS IS NOT HOW IT WORKS, YOU FASCIST CREEPS

I feel like a sadist still watching this Cubs game…this team is so lost.

Pretty galling to have your representative (you know, the person elected to represent you), try to convince you that it’s perfect normal for his views to contradict yours. NOT HOW IT WORKS, MY GUY.
