A WGN employee? Oh. That's, ah, ehm. WGN is popular in Chicago, so that's uh, maybe not a great move, you know? I'm not saying that WGN is John Wick's puppy, but I'm not not saying that either.

🚨 🇺🇸 #BREAKING: A federal judge in #Illinois has 'blocked Trump administration authorities' from using force against journalists in the #Chicago area — including threats or arrest or riot control weapons. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

This is the letter Dr. Roberts received in March, 2025 from his attorney. I understand why he thought all was good, but this attorney provides no next steps nor does she say what the immigration relief is. Poor guy. #ianroberts

Attorneys filed request for stay with the federal immigration court in Omaha on behalf of Superintendent #IanRoberts. Parrish did not elaborate on the filing, which was made under seal, but said his law firm planned a news conference later Tuesday. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/wireS...

A US citizen & human rights defender identified as Rachel S. was abducted & beaten by ICE Trump regime forces in LA, then transported to the hospital and then a detention center, local rights defenders demand an investigation. She is heard screaming: "Let me go! I am an American! I was born here!"

Des Moines crowd begins to grow as locals protest ICE detaining Dr Ian Roberts.

From Heather at @loudandliberal.bsky.social and BitchesGetStuffDone.com #ICE /DHS responded to protests of Ian Roberts arrest at Woodbury county jail with assault rifles and snipers on the roof. Obviously fully prepared to use them against American Citizens. What the actual fuk.

I have to ask: How does someone work in public education in high ranking positions in 3 different states and not have work authorization. Any good journalists out there, please look into this. And the school district should be able to look this up really easily.

Thank goodness. Some good polling for democracy!

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled

I gotta say, Gavin Newsom is meeting this extraordinary moment like a total f’ng badass. Do not obey in advance. Communicate often. Remain calm. Hold the line. Call them on their bullshit. Bring the facts. And push the fuck back. This is the way.

In itself it's not the biggest thing but Congress specifically passed a law requiring ICE to allow access to members of Congress because of Trump's antics in the first term. This isn't even norms. It's violating black letter statute law.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Ted Cruz and James Woods have both shared this video from 2020, claiming it's currently happening in Los Angeles

Right now, Pete Hegseth is ranting about “violent” ICE protesters. Fox cuts to live footage: people peacefully chanting, holding signs—literally dancing. But January 6th? They still can’t bring themselves to condemn it. This is a battle for the narrative—and we will win.

So there's this and this: politicalwire.com/2025/06/07/t...

Today, thousands from Chicago’s Little Village to the suburb of Aurora made a 30mi human chain in protest. "Every act of courage matters. And we are out here in our act of courage, no matter how small to make sure our voice matters," protestor Rick Lunt said. #MomSky tinyurl.com/fh6s5dae

MERKLEY: Are you gonna launch an investigation of the reported violation of the due process of several hundred people? P: It is not for me to call the balls & strikes M: You haven't read the Constitution? It says 'all persons'...it concerns me you're not familiar w/the core concept of due process

This is a widely inaccurate & dangerous mischaracterization. The vaccine was developed in fetal cells obtained from two elective abortions in the early 1960s. There is not abortion debris floating around in the vaccine. And the Vatican has okayed its use. RFK Jr. is again spreading disinformation.

Not. Good.

Dear god let this man cook.

Apparently, helping an undocumented immigrant by letting them know their rights and referring them to legal aid is grounds for firing and getting a visit from law enforcement. disq.us/url?url=http...

This is priceless.

Well, this isn't helping.

Ummmmm . . .

#ProudBlue flip.it/0FLQIH The topic of this article is so true! A lot of people aren’t taking this administration and the GOP seriously. We’ve had protests but it’s not enough. When the actual pain from tariffs are felt, EVERYONE should be in the streets. We will see, if it comes to fruition

Connecting the dots: 1. DOGE is assembling a master database to surveil and track all people living in the U.S. 2. Trump’s regime wants to charge U.S. citizens with crimes for criticizing policies. 3. Trump regime wants to exile convicted U.S. citizens to prisons abroad. bsky.app/profile/carl...

Wisconsin judge threatens to boycott courtroom over Hannah Dugan arrest A Wisconsin judge is threatening not to hold court in protest of federal authorities arresting her fellow judge Hannah Dugan last week. Judge Monica Isham made the announcement in an email to judges across the state on…

Word.

To be clear, you don't deport a US citizen. You kidnap them.

A mother breastfeeding a U.S. citizen’s baby gets deported back to communist Cuba. Heidy Sanchez Tejeda was working legally, building a family, and playing by the rules. ICE tore her away anyway. Demand justice. Demand her return.

Yes, we have and we will.

Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.

RESIST!!

Ann Jacobs is an outstanding attorney—former public defender, trial lawyer, chair of the Wisconsin Elections Commission. To understand how preposterous the complaint against Judge Dugan really is, read her analysis here: threadreaderapp.com/thread/19158...

We the people stand with Judge Dugan!
