Why are people arguing about that ICE agent killing a civilian? There’s no argument to be had!! Agents of the government has killed one of their own citizens. The government has killed one of their own citizens. whether you agree or disagree, it’s still the truth.

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

ICE has shot and killed a community observer in Minneapolis. Sending all of my love to the people of Minneapolis and the folks defending their neighbors there. This is heinous, and I am so sorry. To everyone else: REMEMBER ICE LIES ABOUT EVERYTHING. THIS IS DOCUMENTED.

Chicago's Smart Streets cameras began issuing new fine types for expired meters and parking in bus stops in late October. New cameras have come into rotation as well, to limited use. Low impact to daily fines issued so far, and a majority of tickets are still warnings.

This guy is a fuckin boss

Ok world. I am no longer at Morningstar. Today was my last day with a truly awesome team of smart, funny, and kind people. I’ll miss my team. I cannot, however, abide with HR and leadership eliminating remote roles instead of just being transparent about layoffs.

I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

The question should not be “Should we feed children?” The question should be “HOW should we feed children?”

Bovino and Co. are preparing to leave Chicago in the coming days, according to @chicagotribune.com reporting www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/10/f...

Here’s how we should all be reporting on the spurious claims from these agencies that have repeatedly been caught in lies and exaggerations:

BREAKING: Mark Wolf, appointed to the federal bench by Ronald Reagan, writes that he is resigning as a judge to have the freedom to speak out against the president's assault on the rule of law. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Video on social media shows an immigration agent pulling a gun in Little Village and holding it to the side — which is not an appropriate or safe way to hold a gun. (Among other issues.)

A few other photos of feds pointing weapons directly at people from today circulating show pepper ball guns (also not a thing agents should be aiming at people, but). This is a real one:

Hey guys the US officially has gulags and WE ARE PAYING AMERICANS TO BEAT AND TORTURE OUR OWN PEOPLE

There’s no right or principle this administration respects. “…the anonymous representative, told a group of faith leaders and activists that “There is no more prayer in front of building or inside the building because this is the state and it’s not [of a] religious background.””

This account also feels in line with some of what other people that have been in Broadview have shared.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

Practically every day we encounter someone who still has no idea ICE shot and killed someone in Chicago already. This happened before many people tuned in (and many have already tuned out again).

A caravan of Border Patrol and ICE agents, including a van with abducted individuals, drove out of the Target on Peterson Ave across from Rosehill Cemetery around 11:30 this morning, Nov 3. They came from the service vehicle loading dock, where it seemed Target allowed them to remain for some time

Tonight, in Chicago, North Side rapid responders and community members held a vigil. At least ten people were abducted by ICE in Rogers Park alone today. We uplifted the message RESIST ICE in lights. We spoke out, sang together, grieved, and reaffirmed our commitment to defending our neighbors.

The cruelty is the point.

This is a cross section of activity (as OP notes, there is so, so much extending into the burbs that cannot fit on one map) but a good start in understanding the current situation

Meaning that infrastructure like AWS is not something that Signal, or almost anyone else, could afford to just “spin up.” Which is why nearly everyone that manages a real-time service–from Signal, to X, to Palantir, to Mastodon–rely at least in part on services provisioned by these companies. 8/

The primary advantage of using Signal over WhatsApp is that Signal does not store metadata. Just sayin'. www.forbes.com/sites/the-wi...

From Sept 1- Sept 20, ICE used over $100,000 of your tax $$ to bombard my community with chemical munitions. The pepper spray & tear gas lingers & spreads up to 1000 yards, making it where people can't open their window or go outside. Tell congress to rein in ICE. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

NEW: Cardinal Blase Cupich, the Archbishop of Chicago, has issued a new statement declaring that Chicago "communities are shaken by immigration raids and detentions. These actions wound the soul of our city. Let me be clear. The Church stands with migrants."

“If they can pull a gun on an elected official and try to bash in my window, there’s no end to the terror they will continue reigning on our communities,” Huynh said in a statement sent by his Congressional campaign."
