A partial list of what Bovino does not have to tell a federal judge happened today: *An agent pushed a City Council member in Albany Park *Agents deployed pepper spray in Albany Park & Evanston *Agents were involved in a car crash in Evanston *An agent pointed a gun at a woman in Evanston

it’s wild that this is just sort of the most openly corrupt administration of all time and they’re just allowed to do that and most media doesn’t say a word about it

James Michael Johnson, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, is fanatically devoted to Donald Trump and expresses his adoration by endeavoring to give Trump everything he wants, despite never having heard a word Trump has written or said or any specific account of anything Trump has done.

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

ice has brought far more violence to chicago than was there prior

This is literally directly across the street from an elementary school.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence. This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less. Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

New Thrice day!

there is no other way to put this.

what an embarrassment

this is, no exaggeration, some of the most loser shit i have ever seen in my life

yeah they're just murdering random people on these boats

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again. These two gotta go.

if you dont stop calling us nazis we will have the secret police disappear you to a slave labor camp

Somehow all of these agencies were able to do their jobs before, unmasked. I wonder what's different now.

the fact that so many people frame autism as “a problem that needs to be solved” is a constant reminder that being “not normal” isn’t acceptable to a large amount of the world. it’s the same reason there’s a trans panic right now too. they think people are defective

They love killing people. International waters, ICE detention, on the streets, wherever. They will not stop until they’re forced to stop.

I would love for a single democrat to reckon with the fact that conservatives are not in fact motivated by reasonable concerns. They are — just as they were with ‘concerns’ over blacks and gays and numerous other minorities over the last five decades — motivated by bigotry.

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

genuinely crazy that this is happening on behalf of charlie kirk of all people

The Free Speech President has now pulled two of the three major late night hosts off the air through threats and intimidation because of their jokes. Obviously I’m behind Jimmy Kimmel 100% in the face of this fascist garbage. Speech against this admin isn’t just being chilled, they’re freezing it.

ah, well

one of the clearest signs you're dealing with a strong and principled political movement is when they want to make it illegal to make fun of them

like this is the most irresponsible level of hysteria i’ve ever seen. most of these people are either paid by the republican party, or are high level advisors and allies. this is insane

if the right doesn’t stop doing things like this the right might get violent

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

The motivation for young white men to embrace hate and authoritarianism is clear when even the institutions that are their supposed enemies work overtime to sanitize and honor their legacies

MAGA 3 days ago: Chicago is about to find out the meaning of WAR MAGA today: the left needs to stop condoning violence

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

“the recent event is justification for what we are already doing”

wrote about the “national conservative” vision for america

He can't hear you. Also I love that you're rancorous about the hat but not that he's depicting himself as a character who's a slaughtering mass murderer of innocents who is the embodied representative of the insanity of war. He's threatening Chicago with war. You're barking at an ai pic about a hat.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

just an ongoing embarrassment that this barely sentient meathead is secretary of defense

of course she doesn’t. the (republican) president is rightfully, by her lights, an elected dictator. trump is doing nothing that the constitution does not give him the power to do, according to her and her republican colleagues.

I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops. I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops. I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.

Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."

Holy shit, they did it. They wrote the headline.

RIP Ozzy. Gunned down in his pri-ay-ay-me.

system designed to impose maximum violence on trans women and girls works as intended

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

they ask politicians like Mamdani if they are communists but they never ask anyone if they are a fascist and that's all you really need to know

A federal officer cannot be “doxxed.” The public has a right to know who is operating in our government, especially if they have the power to imprison someone.

The U.S., notoriously passive and bombing another country because someone made us do it

it’s even more demoralizing when the history you’re repeating is history you were around for the first time

You have more in common with the average Iranian citizen than you do with the people that run this country
