Every time someone makes an AI image of Trump doing something stupid, it takes credibility away from all the images that are real.

It's been an honor and a privilege to work with fearless, dedicated reporters at @thetriibe.com, @unraveledpress.com and the @chicagoreader.com these last few weeks. I was born in Chicago and I'm proud to be among people telling its stories, even under occupation.

My hope for all of us in opposition to this regime is that one day soon we are going to be collectively rallying around a group of workers who finally decide enough is enough. Then the dam will break and the people will win.

I wish more people understood that the Chicago Cubs are owned by supporters of the regime.

All the videos we see of ICE/police/military assaulting people on camera are happening because they know they will face no consequences for their actions. They're breaking the law because they believe the law no longer applies to them. What kept them in check before was fear. Now they have none.

All charges brought against protesters at Broadview today must be dropped. When cops and agents attack crowds without provocation, they make shit up to justify their attacks (in his case, an attack waged on a cooperative crowd to produce fascist social media content). These charges must be dropped.

@yourstorymatters.bsky.social has been doing phenomenal work OTG in Chicago (mostly over on Instagram), documenting assaults on the press and protesters. Last night a needed lens disappeared in the chaos. If you picked up this Sigma, get in touch! account.venmo.com/u/jon_stegenga

The city of Chicago is not going to use salt trucks or raise bridges to create road blocks to stop federal agents from entering the city. Stating such nonsense shows a complete misunderstanding of how a city the size of Chicago functions.

The administration plans to attack public festivities in Chicago around Mexican Independence Day (which may include this weekend's parade in Pilsen or related activities) because they want to attack folks in settings where people will try to protect and hold onto community members.

Give this man a sandwich

Stop beating around the bush when talking about these people. Call them what they are people are paying attention.

When you are feeling weary or despairing, remember that there are people in every corner of the world taking life affirming action in the direction of more justice. The fact that you can't see it all is a comfort because it means there is an excess of positive actions happening all at once. #onwards

Punk rock kid buskers (‘The Whops’, tiktok) near the Edgware Rd. They run into Paul Simonon, play Death or Glory for him. He asks if they know The Guns of Brixton. They do -

Want an awesome three-arrows sign to print out for this weekend? (Several variations on the text at the link)

I spent so many years covering propaganda anticipating this exact moment and so many of my peers bought the paid-for contrarian line that even covering disinformation was somehow, itself, censorship. Now we're at the event horizon. Celebration is protest is riot is justification for a police state.

the hong kong protestors used the phrase "do not split" to mean that the radical protest and peaceful protest arms of the movement should refuse to criticize each other.

Yeah. There is no universe where DHS can support this happening every time.

Very positive informative and inspirational presentation with @prisonculture.bsky.social and @marc-fischer.bsky.social last night on the importance of building community through information dissemination. You can make zines too! Thanks to all the presenters and that food was to die for.

All the jokes about the Pope and Chicago are about deep dish pizza, but the real ones know that the Eucharist will now be party cut.

I don’t bother anyone about watching millionaires pass balls around, dunk balls, kick balls, hit balls with sticks or hit/kick each other in rings. …so I don’t get why I can’t watch millionaires wear costumes & raise $ to preserve centuries of textile & fashion history…valid aspects of study.

You either believe that everyone on the planet has bodily autonomy and freedom to roam for personal survival or you think that some portion of those concepts need to be suppressed.

Evanston protest in Fountain Square on Saturday April 26: actionnetwork.org/events/democ...

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

JB skating first appeared in 1971, when James Brown’s funk-heavy tracks inspired Chicago roller skaters to move in ways that mirrored the singer’s legendary sliding footwork. thetriibe.com/2025/04/jb-s...

Anyway, stop demanding respect for the rule of law and start demanding respect for people's humanity.

Hey Chicago peeps - yes there is a 50501 thing happening on April 19 here. But please know that Indivisible Chicago and its chapters are not involved. As far as I know, none of the actual organizers of the Chicago Hands Off protest are involved.

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”

I'm sorry but Jasmine Crockett saying, F"ind a little trans child that is ruining your life!" is well giving me life. She is both very right and very funny.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

Once you understand that the Trump White House is a Mafia-style criminal enterprise running a protection racket, everything becomes clear.
