If you crack jokes about dead CEOs, you might end up on a watch list, but if you crack jokes about slaughtered Palestinian babies, you might end up on mainstream media like Van Jones

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

Most of them owned human beings

“There’s a baby!” Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

Journalists in Portland: Try to get photos of gas canisters/munitions, either spent on ground or still carried by DHS. ONLY IF SAFE. Use long lens. Risks unknown, don’t approach. This green smoke isn’t super common. Raised concerns in 2020. Documenting DHS munitions may help accountability later.

So why is everyone I know in Portland talking about hearing what they think are gunshots from near the protests? Does anyone know what is going on?

EVERY LIFETIME, I BEG.

Heard an officer say "let's do it" and then, in the dark, they tackle Rabbi Ben to the ground. He's being loaded into a CCSO wagon now. Broadview police also here screaming at people.

I keep remembering how Israelis rioted for the right to rape prisoners not long ago.

Free Greta Thunberg and the rest of the illegally detained flotilla activists.

Woke up last night over and over thinking about this. Remembering the first time as a baby social worker that a middle schooler told me about watching his cousin get arrested by ICE and how his world broke. These kids will never forget the feel of those ties, or trust freely, or feel half as safe.

unbelievable amounts of gas right in front of the apartments by the ICE facility in portland. guys in fatigues in the middle of the road

history teacher in 50 years: So in September, that’s when the president signed an executive order criminalizing anti-fascism and saying all resistance would be crushed student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism teacher: haha what? oh no lol not at all. no.

These people were enslaved as laborers for a call center soliciting church donations in case you’re wondering the exact level of where we went wrong as a human species

Hahaha

The Sun-Times *is reporting these were live rounds* fired at a vehicle. There's been much confusion in the immediate aftermath of this about whether whether they were that or pepper balls, and whether person in vehicle was hit by them. This is the most current info we have *at this time.*

Happening now: at Kedzie and 40th, where Border Patrol agents just opened fire on rapid response this afternoon. A woman CFD says they found after the incident is reported in fair condition. A growing number of outraged neighbors have gathered across from ICE/CBP agents who have closed Kedzie.

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A. ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why. A judge has ordered his immediate release. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Today, I drove an hour and a half with my wife and a couple friends to pick up a neighbor who was summarily, inexplicably arrested by ICE at a check-in ten days ago and then just as inexplicably released, 100 miles from home today. It was a happy occasion, all things considered, but...

Some folks here are calling out ISP troopers by name, looking up their salaries, and roasting them.

ISP gets in formation and a number of them march away from the intersection, toward the parking lot neighboring the ICE facility (it belongs to a business, not ICE's lot). The crowd starts a rendition of The Imperial March.

ISP just shoved an elderly woman to the ground. Trooper here declares an unlawful assembly and is screaming at people to stay out of the road (they were...already out of the road).

Protesters have decorated this parking lot fence on Beach with flyers for Silverio Villegas González. Two ICE agents shot and killed him in his car in neighboring Franklin Park three weeks ago. He leaves behind two sons he was caring for.

Have seen a few troopers out here without their name patches. This one tells me they're not required to wear them "with this uniform." Asked him to identify himself and he then told me his name is "Tad Nelson."

At the Broadview, IL ICE detention center— IL state troopers are already pushing non-violent demonstrators out of the street and away from the ICE facility. One arrest so far.

Chicago tonight appears to be chaos from what I am seeing here. Seeing from friends otg and other streams. Federal paramilitary members and state police are working together to attack civilians across the city but at broadview police and federal troops are attempting to terrorize protestors.

Jesus Christ. DHS has held this guy in the hospital handcuffed to a bed and under constant guard for over a MONTH without ANY warrant or even ANY steps taken towards putting him into the removal system!

The smartest newsroom in America: is intentionally hitting two people with a vehicle at 70 miles per hour some sort of crime?

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

KIYAC — the Kat for Illinois Youth Advisory Council — is putting on its first campaign event! Come get a free car wash, drop off your winter clothes, and pick up a yard sign at Double Clutch Brewing Company in Evanston til 10:30!

i just can’t get over ICE going into the streets of the city i live in, throwing gas at citizens, invading people who live here. this is state sponsored terrorism being enacted on americans

I mean they have dogs in there that they need to keep safe

Attn Black people, stop scrolling. This is not a drill: Chicago

I slowed down a video of Nick Sortor in Portland from Wed night to show he pushed this woman first in this altercation. Sortor claimed he was attacked last night (Thurs) and was unfairly arrested, and Pam Bondi has since called him to tell him the feds will investigate his "wrongful arrest." /

This is it #trumpshutdown 🎥: @warnock.senate.gov

"why don't the police arrest ICE?" same reason the SS didn't arrest the gestapo, dumbass

wow I wonder why my entire body was in the air in the first place

If Trump and MAGA are proud of being fascists, or Christian white nationalists, or whatever evil namesake they prefer most, why does the entire universe of American media still affirmatively choose to gaslight us? Bait me. Make it flashy. I don’t care. Just call a thing a thing. What are we doing.

Federal officer blasts chemical spray into vocal but nonviolent Portland protester, video shows The interaction illustrates how federal law enforcement officers do use aggressive tactics against protesters who yell and needle officers but don’t appear to present clear physical threats.

Your state troopers participated in Friday's fascist photo op attack at Broadview. Get the false charges against protesters dropped immediately!

Chicago Ald. Jessie Fuentes' office has released video of federal agents handcuffing her at Humboldt Park Health, as she asked them to present a judicial warrant for another arrest.

Witness video shows federal agents throwing tear gas canisters in the middle of Armitage Ave today as they appear to be blocked in and heckled by angry neighbors. This is around the 3500 block of West Armitage.

Snapped this pic of DHS conferring with the IL state police just before ICE attacked the crowd, while state and county police assisted them. ICE said, "This is your first and only warning" and then instantly attacked. We were not in the road at that time. They just wanted to assault us and film it.

This is absolutely Brownshirt business.

You can see how their cameramen document their violence. This is about content creation. For the last one, I had to search my files for a photo of this moment that didn't include the face of a pained or screaming protester, but for clarity: those are tackled human beings on the ground.

Chicago isn't pleased.

they’re intenionally advertising to and recruiting far right loyalists. they post and reply to explicit groyper memes. they’re not super subtle about what this government is

$200k to hang out with dogs. amazing IG gabriel.desanti, barkandburn

I said what I said.

Just witnessed Chicagoans following this undercover ICE vehicle (Black pick-up truck) heading south on Ashland honking their horns incessantly and alerting everyone that ICE was coming.
