The women married to fascists are usually also fascists. They weren't "tricked" into being with these people. They chose them.

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

The fact that some of the companies who run the games industry are fighting so hard to stop unionization just proves how much power the workers have when they stand together. This disgusting action only delays the inevitable; solidarity will win.

spending my afternoon getting totally traumatized watching videos of my fellow chicagoans getting choked out, stomped on, tear gassed and kidnapped

Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

Border Patrol grabbed workers from the front yard of a home in Edison Park this afternoon then took them behind an office building in Niles and passed them off to a prisoner van. Woman came out to MF them and said "you're in the most conservative neighborhood in the city and nobody wants you here."

we live in hell

We should not be having a debate about Nazi symbolism tattooed on the potentially top ticket Democrat in Maine. The fact we are even willing to entertain it shows desperation within the Party, not dedication, and how far we have fallen from rational thought.

This isn’t news, it’s pro-billionaire propaganda.

what if instead of saying a pledge of allegiance on Halloween, all the kiddos said the pledge of SPOOKY???? just an idea

NEW: In a joint statement, six of the top #IL09 candidates condemned the indictment of Kat Abughazaleh and five others on Wednesday, calling it "partisan and unethical." "This is what happens in dictatorships and failed states; we should never accept it here." Statement:

🚨 There’s still time to support the transit bill: 1. Fill out your contact information 3. Under "firm/business" put "self" 4. Under "representation" put "self" 5. Under "position" choose subject matter "SB2111" and "proponent" 6. Under "testimony" choose "record of appearance only" 7. "Submit"

its like fantasy football but instead of winning 300 dollars its for if regular people ever get to have a fucking say in anything again

“the government” isn’t some overlord telling you what to do, it’s everyone coming together to pool resources, distribute them as needed, and plan for the future

i don't know why we need to immediately react to every insane thing this guy posts on the can

in the parallax view a dude just walks onto a plane and buys a ticket from the flight attendant like she’s a conductor on a train???

FASCISM.

shame on all of us for just standing here and letting this happen

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

saw David Byrne in the bike lane on Dearborn and I thought I was hallucinating

Today was a heavy one. I know folks are hurting over the harms our best efforts didn't prevent. It's not a fair fight, and these things are going to happen. Too often, the best we can do is document the damage done.

anyone know where I can find fresh curry leaves near Logan Square?? I’m happy to head out of the neighborhood if needed but I’d rather do somewhere close by

Beef Cider

New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people www.404media.co/ice-and-cbp-...

i promise there’s a way to do journalism without being sponsored by an oil company

Video posted on social media captioned as Cicero, IL in the Menard’s parking lot. It shows federal agents breaking a man’s window and dragging him out of his truck. Our Mexican communities experiencing so much terror rn.

This is a real thing that a judge had to say to the Chief of US Customs and Border Protection.

Border patrol in 3 pm traffic. 19th and Ashland.

This was posted by the IG page Humboldt Park en Solidaridad. There is a call for support at Sabin Dual Language Magnet School 3:45-4:00pn. The school is at Leavitt and Hirsch.

This seems ridiculous but it is NOT safe to be in immigrant in Chicago rn and go to a laundromat. Federal agents detained a person at a laundromat in West Humboldt Park today. They also attempted to enter a Little Village laundromat last week but the owner locked the doors.

Border Patrol Chief Bovino exited the federal courthouse in Chicago today, facing questions over his use of tear gas in communities despite a federal ban without justification. Before leaving, he stood in the truck doorway, fist-pumped, and then placed a CS grenade on the dashboard.

Luckily they have gotten him to pinky swear that he will come over after work every day and say "damn thats crazy your honor" to the judge in good faith

If you told me Bovino was fidgeting with a canister of tear gas in his pocket the entire hearing I would believe you. If they gassed protesters on their way out I would be totally unsurprised

I would love to pass legislation banning Gavin Newsom from speaking

fixed that for you

There has to be a reason that the guitar subreddit rarely talks about fights within their bands and the bass subreddit does all of the time

“If they had speed bumps, he should be living today": 78 year old man, who just recovered from previously being hit by a driver, hit AGAIN in crosswalk & killed

My closing pitch to voters? “I will only live in this awful place if I rule over it”

I consider myself pretty good at cooking and knowledgeable about food but I am still so confused about which parts of an artichoke are edible

If Dems win the Supreme Court races in Pennsylvania in 9 days, it’s extremely likely the GOP can’t get a majority on that court until 2029. The GOP really wants to have this majority during the 2028 presidential race. Can’t put the stakes any more clearly than that. boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Me when I see someone publicly wanting the things that I secretly want: Disgusting. You are a loathsome creature

97% unrelatedly, I'm a big fan of Johann Chapoutot's *The Law of Blood: Thinking and Acting as a Nazi* (with a fascinating painting on its cover):

“Do you really expect Mamdani to get everything he’s promising done?” No. I’m sure a lot of what I want won’t happen. But I’m ready for someone who’s willing to actually fucking try rather than tell everyone why trying is pointless and must be saved for an undefined later moment

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

If you can make it to Rush Hospital in Aurora, IL, an ICE patroller got pulled out of her car, assaulted and pepper sprayed by agents. She's in the hospital and nobody except ICE is allowed to see her. There's a call to assemble and demand ICE leave the hospital, and let her husband in to see her.

police are bad and they do not help

This chipmunk came up to me and said “Chicago will outlive the federal government” what did he mean by this

REAGAN WAS AN INSANE MORON THOUGH
