This is a great account to follow (yeah, I’m biased) if you want to see where new development is happening in Chicago

GTFO. Anyone who believes these rope-smoking jagoffs is living in neverland.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

When my cartoons become reality. #chicago

Gut wrenching story.

First snow accumulation of the season!

My jagoff Senator has a full mailbox. I'm so fucking pissed

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Fuck you Dick Durbin. Fuck you all the way into your fucking retirement that should have come a decade ago.

You too can eat your feelings in these heinous times. Get yourself a squash. Name it. Eat it.

We ate that smiling bastard. I climbed into bed to find him under the blankets some nights. My son carried it around like a child. He was great with salt and pepper alongside some fish and beets... God rest his pulp.

Current emotional state.

50 year mortgage is so crazy. to put it in perspective, 2016 was 50 years ago

Chicagoans never stop. I was just watching a live stream of a press conference held by community members in front of FBI headquarters. In the rain in the dark. Umbrellas at hand they are calling for the release of 6 people taken by ICE, 3 also arrested by CPD. They never stop fighting.

Looking for some inspiration in Port of Spain, Trinidad, to be had from the rapid increase in bike commuting in Paris, France! 👍🚲 @annehidalgo.bsky.social #PoliticalWill #ActiveTravel #MobilityIsEquity #LeadershipMatters

Read this excellent report about the Trump Hollywood- style propaganda team and how they brainwash the public.

X is a fascist propaganda website. If you’re on X, you’re helping keep people on a fascist propaganda website.

even the cruelest of your own constituents cannot eat ICE propaganda videos, John

The corporate propaganda machine colluding with the Trump propaganda machine to lie to the American people about Thanksgiving.

First snow of the season in Chicago. We're eating cranberry sauce on pancakes and listening to Charlie Brown Christmas

Gangster wannabe morons

This is, unsurprisingly, nonsensical. Is he suggesting eliminating health insurance and giving people a few thousand dollars instead? And then when they get a cancer diagnosis they just go bankrupt? He is so unserious. That's why we are shut down and Americans know it.

One thing I have marveled at is the way that crowds have been disciplined in capturing immigration enforcement’s lack of discipline.

Bovino went into popular Carniceria Aguascalientes in heart of Little Village. “They said they were just here to buy something,” said Elizabeth Gutierrez. “I told them we wouldn’t serve them and escorted them out. Bovino seemed upset, but I don’t care.” www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/08/c...

Chris Coons: "He's not listening to concerns about lowering costs. Instead he's worried about decorating his new Marie Antoinette ballroom or engaging in trying to figure out how to get his name on more statues and stadiums, or he's sitting across the table in the Oval Office with authoritarians."

CBP/ICE was supported by the FBI this morning in Little Village, with reports of plainclothes feds seen in vehicles across the area. This also included using Chicago FBI HQ for staging. Bovino is seen here doing rock paper scissors with another agent for the DHS cameras, as people yell insults:

The federal government is waging war on major American cities. Ever fucking day. Tell everyone. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

At least 26 unhoused Chicagoans have been kidnapped by federal agents since September, though many others remain uncounted among the disappeared.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

My family of four buys our health insurance on the marketplace. We are facing unaffordable increases next year. I just called my senators and sent emails to them urging them to hold the line during the government shutdown and fight to reinstate government subsidies. Call your senator today.

He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

This is Amerika

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Listen, I’m a damn hick, but I’m not hick enough to believe people from New York City will want to move to Missouri because the city elected Mamdani…

#BREAKING U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis in Chicago is entering a preliminary injunction governing the use of force against protesters and journalists.

Ellis also finds that the feds' use of force in Chicago "shocks the conscience."

Ellis: "The unlawful activity by a few protesters does not transform a peaceful assembly into an unlawful assembly."

Ellis notes people being tear gassed, staring down the barrel of a gun and being "slammed to the ground with their head bashed into the street." "All of that would cause a reasonable person to think twice about exercising their fundamental constitutional rights."

Ellis: "It doesn't matter that someone continues to go protest, or continues to be courageous. That is irrelevant as to whether there was a chilling effect."

Ellis on the Oct. 24 incident in Lake View: "When an agent deployed gas, he stated, 'Have fun.' And then, two additional tear gas canisters were deployed."

Federal immigration agents led a caravan through Chicago's Southwest Side Thursday, questioning residents about citizenship status at multiple stops.

An alley in Chicago

I want my kids to see that our family stands for community. When they grow up, I want them to be proud that we walked a scared classmate and her family to the bus stop after school; proud that we packed whistle kits; that we fight to be better and build a better world. Be a neighbor, not a jagoff

From Steve Bannon's mouth to God's ears.

Fuuuuuuuuck ICE. We bought out 5 vendors this morning in Little Village and ICE is out there terrorizing the community. We also pass out whistles thanks to a supporter who 3D printed a ton for us. We keep us safe. ✊🏽
