You need to see this: “The show of force is the point. They want these images to be out…The Department of Homeland Security is walking around Chicago with a film crew.” @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social

Four cemetery workers, all U.S. citizens, arrested during a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation that crossed over onto the private Concordia Cemetery in the west suburban village of Forest Park.

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces. This is truly terrifying.

Among the most hideous & ubiquitous historical fables taught in this country are about the “discovery” of America and the “settling” of North America by pioneers. But there’s even more. This Indigenous People’s Day,decide to learn.Ned Blackhawk & @rebeccanagle.bsky.social’s works are extraordinary.

"After the warning, neighbors showed up and formed a human chain outside the church to guide parishioners home. NBC Chicago found more organizers doing the same for the beginning of the 6 p.m. mass..." www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/c...

The same ICE agent who handcuffed Ald. Jessie Fuentes has been filmed in at least 3 other violent encounters, including the viral arrest of a woman in Waukegan in front of the mayor. “He’s obviously a danger to individuals and particularly women," Fuentes said. Read more at @windycitytimes.com

George Stephanopolous did what every anchor and host should have been doing since Bush 2000: Rejecting the bullshit, gaslighting, and rude, evasive filibustering the GOP has perfected to hide their lies. NO MORE BULLSHIT.

Congress better hurry up and settle the shutdown before everyone figures out they’re nonessential personnel.

Another good time to remind people that “tear gas” is a term of copaganda that police, the military, and its manufacturers use to obscure that it is a dangerous chemical weapon internationally banned for use even in warfare.

THIS IS NOTHING LESS THAN A SAVAGE REBELLION AGAINST MODESTY. THE PRESIDENT MUST INVOKE THE INSURRECTION ACT IMMEDIATELY!! THANK YOU FOR AVERTING YOUR EYES FROM THIS MATTER buff.ly/iCcDTvD

The US federal attack on Portland has resulted in the best advertisement for a city that I have ever seen. Round-the-clock joy, community solidarity and silliness that much of the West has lost and longs for.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker says ICE and DHS are repeatedly lying about their arrests in Chicagoland: "They lie every time it seems like, so we can't believe it when they say it. We have to do our own investigations. That's why it's so vital that people are pulling out their phones and filming."

On Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor the Native lands and contributions of Native American and Indigenous communities. Today, that legacy continues as Native American voters defend a key tool used for decades to fight racially discriminatory voting laws. Learn more below👇

José Andrés really is one of the absolute best Americans.

Footage from the battle of Portland where musicians came to give a musical support to the war-torn population. May the power of the frog be with them.

Soon it will be show us your papers. This must stop.

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment. Here’s what experts say you need to know.

This is how you’re supposed to treat fascists and their lies. Media pay attention.

STEVE BENEN The one thing the Letitia James and James Comey indictments have in common Both cases are brazenly and transparently corrupt, for the sake of brazen and transparent corruption.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it. Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

A friend ran the Chicago marathon today and said he couldn’t count the number of FUCK ICE signs along the way.

Congratulations to all the runners today at the Chicago Marathon! I hope you’re taking a moment after crossing the finish line and enjoying all that the best big city in the nation has to offer.

Kelly: I really worry about those aviators, drone operators, special forces guys that are in the Caribbean right now striking these boats and whether or not this is legal.. There’s no authorization for the use of military force. The Congress has not given that to the president. He hasn’t asked.

🚨🚨🚨WA Governor Bob Ferguson responds to a letter he received from AG Pam Bondi in which she threatened to place him in jail. 🧯He is on fire! 1/2

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @jesseduquette.bsky.social )

Some of these people have now been fired and rehired TWICE since January. The current state of dysfunction is mind boggling.

holy shit

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members. They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

I am Amphifa!

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning. There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

First there was the Portland Cop threatening to arrest an ICE agent if they drive their truck through a crowd. Now the General of the Oregon National Guard says if they get called up they will protect the protesters. People are fed up!

BREAKING: Youth leaders in Cicero — a town in Chicago, IL — are leading a protest against ICE. Ty to @statuscoupnews.bsky.social for being on the ground and sharing this story. Solidarity with everyone pushing back against the MAGA mafia!! #50501movement #Chicago #Cisero

Precious people protesting in support of immigrants at ICE facility in Broadview, IL. Thank youuuu! substack.com/@xplicitpoli...
