Fam, it's gonna be a good night.

The opposition to so-called “Operation Midway Blitz” is not the first time Chicagoans have stood up against our neighbors being snatched off the street by outsiders. Jeff Nichols takes a look back at how Chicago residents resisted abductions of Black Chicagoans after the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act.

While feds are cutting support for housing, so is DC. There is no city funding for 2026 for permanent supportive housing for individuals experiencing homelessness. Shelters are at 95% capacity. Other voucher programs are shrinking, pushing people back into homelessness, including families.

My opponents are crumbling 😄

50 years ago today, the Edmund Fitzgerald sank and 29 lives were lost. A new excerpt from “Wrecked: The Edmund Fitzgerald and the Sinking of the American Economy” looks at the legal battles families faced in the aftermath. www.greatlakesnow.org/2025/11/fift...

Fuck me lol

NEW: @govpritzker.illinois.gov's office says 3 masked ICE agents stopped & questioned an IL Department of Transportation employee working in Park Ridge about his immigration status & whether he had traveled to New York and his awareness of NYC Mayor-elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social before leaving.

Political Prisoner profile: Alex Stokes

The only remaining person in prison for Jan 6 is Alex Stokes, and he is Antifa. Proud Boys attacked protesters in an Albany "Stop the Steal" rally, and Alex defended his friends + comrades from the fascist bullies. Free Alex Stokes, Free All Antifascists #Antifascism #AlwaysAntifascist #Antifa #Jan6

“Erika Kirk receives Charlie Kirk Legacy Award at the Patriot Awards” is the most participation trophy shit I’ve ever heard cmon now

The growth in Western Lake County and Eastern McHenry County is very noticeable 😫

Abolish Jeep Wagoneers

Real occupying force vibe with this set. Soldiers cross the street, on the lookout for hostiles. The commander and his men interrogate locals. The commander meets with a local police official.

hell yeah

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

"According to police video obtained by the Tribune, Diaz-Torres told officers he had just finished working an 18-hour shift at the ICE holding facility in Broadview and was heading straight to his hotel in Lombard."

May Dick Cheney's energy spiral endlessly and never find peace for all the horror and heartache that he caused.

I know this weird little Nazi is probably mostly lying about being afraid of getting arrested if she comes back to Germany, but still, as an American who sometimes worries a little about returning to America, I love this for her.

Breaking my rule about posting X links to share my personal favorite Naomi Seibt video:

New graffiti art in my Rogers Park, Chicago, neighborhood.

My understanding is that she hasn’t been getting Heartland Institute money for a few years. I’d be curious to know who’s funding her now (she says she’s supported 100% by donations, which may or may not be true).

🧵🧵 This thread highlights some of media people and organizations energetically covering the Trump regime’s campaign to terrorize Chicagoans. These folks are well worth a Bluesky follow. Of special note is Unraveled, the kind of independent journalism we need when some legacy outlets are in retreat.

Outside Chicago— State police and sheriff's officers at Broadview detention center are out in riot gear. A large Halloween demo is being prevented from doing a Jericho walk through the intersection. Arrests of protesters ongoing. Troopers have also assaulted multiple reporters already.

Protesters have formed a protective wall. Taking the street for real.

More pepper balls. Troopers arresting at least 2-3 protesters, ripping shields away from the crowd.

“What the fuck is wrong with you guys?” someone shouts.

Community organizers calling out Home Depot for profiting off of immigrant laborers and contractors for decades. "Home Depot's silence and inaction makes it a passive party in ICE's violence."

Cool optics bro

brains make the pain go away

In Belmont Cragin on Chicago's northwest side this morning, a rally is opening in support of day laborers outside the Armitage/Cicero Home Depot. Activists are calling out the corporation for continuing to allow ICE and Border Patrol to stalk and attack immigrants in their parking lots.

Deplatforming Nick Fuentes was what kept him from being mainstreamed, it worked. Elon's replatforming of all of these people and allowing actual Nazis around is why the US government is now publishing white supremacist propaganda regularly. This is not a new debate. Deplatforming works.

Border Patrol repeatedly punches this man in the head while he’s on the ground in handcuffs. Also today, an appeals court ruled a federal judge lacks the power to have Bovino explain his men’s conduct on a daily basis.

I wear suspenders. That's right, suspenders. Does that make me an old man? I really don't care if it does. Suspenders fucking rule. Except for when you have to use public bathrooms where they immediately become a liability.

If someone is advocating for doing high risk activities, esp if it's someone you're new to, STAY AWAY from that person. Guide: Is S/He an Informant? A Ten Point Checklist

Ruben Torres reunites with his wife in Indiana after being detained by ICE for nearly two weeks. He is headed back to his daughter Ofelia

Even with all the craziness going on in Lake County some people are still able to live inside a nice little bubble.

Max Rice explaining Terry Newsome's past work as a federal informant and how he entrapped gang members and members of the Chicago outfit who were sleeping with his wife.

I slowed down the video to better highlight Gregory Bovino placing a tear gas canister on the dashboard of his vehicle as he was leaving federal court in Chicago yesterday.

Terry Newsome had Stewart Rhodes on his podcast, Behind Enemy Lines, for the self-described 'Domestic Terrorism Tuesday' episode, to announce that the Oath Keepers are back and will be providing so-called security services for MAGA supporters.

Andy Ngo REALLY doesn't want to share the name of Nathaniel Ellis of #Boulder, #Colorado. He also doesn't want you to see the photos of Nathan in neo-Nazi clothes hanging out with neo-Nazi groups.

If you've never heard Sister Wife Sex Strike, this song is pretty fucking rad.

Bovino places tear gas on the dash board as he leaves, a small detail and perhaps symbolizing a threat that the gassings will continue

Extremely normal behavior

Judge Ellis just ordered Greg Bovino to report to her in-person at 6pm every day about that day’s events.

They understand, but do they give a fuck?

Taking notes 😆

Liberals just want to keep living in that fucking dream world don't they. It couldn't happen here!
