ICE shouldn't be at schools. Period. This is horrific, it's unacceptable. These parents should be immediately released and we must all collectively demand that ICE stay out of schools. www.thebanner.com/education/k-...

Roots is a bicentennial jawn so in 50 years we went from groundbreaking miniseries watched by the whole country to banning copies of the book

this is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves. betterdonkey.substack.com/p/the-vra-wa...

My newsletter today is about @katmabu.bsky.social's campaign. Democrats keep asking how to reach voters who've given up on the party. Kat Abughazaleh spent a year trying to answer that question. She lost, but the answer is still right. www.readtpa.com/p/what-if-we...

A Kat story that's also a rescue cat story. And the (kitty) cat is a sweet orangey girl too

Hi, I just want to say a word in support of @meganwachspress.bsky.social. I heard from her this morning before she went public. I had not had a chance to respond yet because my father in law is in the hospital.

I’m not in the 9th district, sharing for contacts here who may be. (If it was my district, would probably vote for Kat.)

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics. "It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It’s a challenge! And opportunity to keep them busy. May take a while to list 100 million of us. Add me to your list, DHS: FUCK ICE & CBP. Accountability NOW!

This is excellent reporting from @mikehixenbaugh.com. Trigger warning that your heart will break. Some readers may experience homicidal ideation (and who could blame them.)

And yet in opinion surveys people still say they trust R’s more on economics. I just - the historical record isn’t hidden. Propaganda doesn’t even have to try that hard. Humans just raise their hands eagerly to be deceived and abused. (Primal: “whyyyyyy?!”)

This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care. It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back. www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...

Marimar Martinez is a badass and a hero.

Martinez: "[I] sat in federal court and watched from 20 feet away as the border patrol agent who attempted to kill me testified at a hearing. Agent Charles Exum—Charles Exum, my attempted executioner was Charles Exum—I hope the government does not consider my use of his name here to be...doxxing."

The American Federation of Government Employees, which represents border patrol officers at the National Border Patrol Council, calls on Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller to resign or be fired

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today. This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

“fuckin’ DUMBIES” a little child shall lead us.

Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

hey, Michiganders and UofM alums, maybe ask what the hell? (Also, umm, is this the caliber of job they think their students are prepared for?)

Some part of me still wants to believe that ordinary people who support ~all of this~ are getting different information, or seeing deepfake videos. More likely, the ”two minute hates” have turned off the human kindness center in their souls.

Here's the Washington Post investigation: www.washingtonpost.com/investigatio... New York Times: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQCv... And Bellingcat's video bsky.app/profile/bell...

So much this

Disney for generations: fuck with our IP and we will literally fucking ruin your life Disney now: We gave $1 billion to Sam Altman so he could make a gooner Mickey Mouse that encourages kids to kill themselves, this is totally fine

it’s bad enough my taxes are funding the invasion of my neighborhood. That I’m also paying to employ these trolls running DHS socials is beyond

Vivid and important thread. this is in Broadview this morning, faith leaders in “God Demands Freedom” gathering

6) that it is a total coincidence that the two outlets with the best Epstein coverage - Gawker and @miamiherald.com - were subsequently sued into oblivion by Peter #Thiel or taken over by private equity;

Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning. This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

"The Republican Party has created an entirely avoidable mess for itself. By taking a resolute stand in favor of making healthcare unobtainable for many Americans, and now threatening to starve children to achieve that perverse goal, they have made performative cruelty their political calling card."

Some context to the viral videos: Around 9am Friday, ICE/CBP *encircled* several square miles of a safe suburb and *stormed* it using multiple units. They were in cars, on foot in alleys & gangways, and in helicopters. They demanded papers, threatened residents, pointed guns, kidnapped people.

blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/30/f... They are targeting children and religious holidays. They are staging ICE raids in cemeteries. There is nothing about this that has anything to do with law and order. This is lawlessness and desecration.

"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"

Federal agents arrested three people, deployed tear gas and disrupted a Halloween parade Saturday in Old Irving Park, neighbors said. t.co/KmphoQHozA

I love you, Chicagoans who stand up to bullies

These are criminal thugs let loose in our neighborhoods.

This is fucked

This is my neighborhood. The regime calls this thing - attacking American neighborhoods - “Midway Blitz.” Which is funny: the Axis lost at Midway, and England famously kicked Nazi ass after the Blitz. Get your untrained, cosplaying ICE thugs OUT of my city

a tyrant is ignoring the constitution, firing live artillery at americans, invading our cities, and tearing down the white house to build himself a palace our institutions won't react because they're lost in a digital dreamstate, unable to decide what is true because of social media poisoning

imagine the race to sanity that could happen in some alternate universe

I needed to read this, today. open.substack.com/pub/thewhite...

southsideweekly.com/federal-agen... The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE Truth: No cars rammed ICE Claim: She boxed ICE in Truth: ICE boxed her in Claim: She shot a rifle at ICE Truth: She did not have a rifle Claim: ICE returned fire Truth: Only ICE fired Claim: She drove herself to the hospital Truth: Paramedics found her

ICYMI: This morning, while @govpritzker.illinois.gov was preaching holy fire against federal immigration agents on social media, IL state police joined feds in arresting protestors at the Broadview ICE facility. Also: agents set off tear gas a busy Chicago street, and handcuff a Chicago Alder.

I don't want to post just doom and sadness, but also didn't choose to be under "blitz" attack by my own stupid government using my own stupid tax dollars. So here we are. blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/03/f...

In Broadview, IL this morning outside Chicago— Federal agents have kidnapped hundreds of immigrants in recent weeks. Outside the ICE processing center here, protesters are gathered for another Friday morning demo. Last week's ended in tear gas and arrests. ICE vans periodically rolling in.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.
