What the fuck is going on?

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning. A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

“But in the Nazi scheme of things one concession from a yielding opponent must lead quickly to another.” — The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer, p. 553

According the victim's attorney, body camera footage captured the officer saying, “Do something, bitch,” before leaping out of the car and shooting her multiple times. Another officer asked, “Hey, what happened?” The first pointed to his camera, “Hey, don’t speak. You’re good.” trib.al/2RfPYXK

Oh www.cnn.com/2025/10/09/p...

Jack Posobiec spread antisenitic hate on Twitter for years, including tagging Jews with triple parentheses. JD Vance wrote the forward to Posobiec’s book, Unhuman.

Every day it's just helicopters all day long now and people are somehow still unsure whether to call this an occupation

Extremely disturbing developments here www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

from the inbox: masked federal agents yesterday evening dragged a person out of their car and tackled them in the street outside uic. a handful of other agents looked on, at least one carrying an apparent rifle. at the end of the clip, the person can be heard screaming, “help! help me! help!”

CHICAGO — Outside an elementary school during dismissal… horrifying. What have we become?

The plan.

The president's antifa expert tells Holocaust jokes and uses neo-Nazi codes like 1488. www.splcenter.org/resources/ha...

My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

🧵 Trump is criminally invading states under false pretenses. His supporters are trying to instigate violence by dressing as antifa and committing crimes. In this clip from Portland, Joey Gibson of "Patriot Prayer" and his fiancée, Lindsey Nichols, tried to cause trouble before being forced away.

Shameful.

I think we all know they can do this to anyone.

About to watch a movie where DiCaprio plays an old washed-up guy. I should write a will.

Photo of the day: Chicago Sun-Times captures this image of Trump's secret police assaulting and shooting in the head a Presbyterian pastor who was speaking to anti-ICE protestors.

Ice agent points of weapon at a woman in a neighborhood in Chicago who is just documenting them… No, he doesn’t look nuts and hyper or anything. Does he? He doesn’t look like he could just pop off at any moment for no reason, or anything.

Here’s the CBS News report about ICE making bogus 911 calls and filing false police reports in Chicago. ht: @mikenellis.bsky.social

Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. trib.al/9Sxu9IN

Get outside Chicago. Last day of really great weather bike folks. #Chicago

Been wondering how SCOTUS could get to "red gerrymanders ok, blue ones bad. " Here's one way: DOJ sues CA, NY, other blue states, SCOTUS rules maps illegal. DOJ doesn't sue red states, maps remain.

Community pooled their money to pay for her green card—then ICE locked her up in a private prison instead. Agents detained her when she showed up for final green card appointment—a process that lasted years & cost $16,009. Family was waiting at her house planning to celebrate over bowls of Pozole.

Why are they clapping?

Bat flips are good actually.

I know it's fantasy, but fascists shouldn't be allowed to consume anything but fascist slop. You want pizza? Enjoy that Papa John's. Please enjoy your AI movie without us.

This video was taken by a local resident who reportedly saw a man being beaten by ICE agents at 37th and Kedzie.

FASCIST FASCIST FASCIST FASCIST

My god.

NEW: ICE is planning to hire a team of nearly 30 people to surveil social media 24/7, build dossiers on people, and flag them for arrest and deportation. @dell.bsky.social has the scoop: www.wired.com/story/ice-so...

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

here's a video of that happening www.reddit.com/r/LoganSquar...

State Representative Lilian Jimenez on the tear gassing of protesters near Rico Fresh on Armitage and Central Park.

My friend shared some photos and videos of what she saw in front of Rico Fresh in Logan Square a short while ago.

When you recall that political reporters ran interference for Trump over his "opposition" to Project 2025, remember that even AT THAT TIME there was a hidden camera interview with Vought where he said that was bullshit and he didn't mean it. www.mediamatters.org/russ-vought/...

Call @govpritzker.illinois.gov and tell him to call off the Illinois State Police from assisting ICE. This is a violation of the intent of the TRUST Act. Pritzker Phone: 312-814-2121 or 312-814-2122

overt nazi language in this DHS job listing (which i’m told is for a low-level but important job in adjudicating immigration applications and requires knowledge of the law)

I cannot express enough how this is what has been happening for some time in Broadview. Federal agents assault, shoot chemical munitions at, and arrest protesters completely unprovoked. And state police are now helping border patrol to combat and arrest protesters. Great work everyone.

Data brokers provide the market for this and should be banned.

Is it our government’s position that if an American commits a drug crime with a cartel (or they allege that) it can just kill that person without trial even if not an immediate threat? I am genuinely trying to understand what if any lines they believe exist. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/u...

Arkansas police pulled over an Indian GrubHub driver wh ois married to a U.S. citizen. They found a bottle of Opium-brand perfume, arrested him for narcotics possession, and turned him over to ICE, where he was held for 30 days. He has now been stripped of his immigration status.

“‘She had tears streaming down her face, and she told me one of the ICE agents pulled out his cell phone, laughing, and took a selfie,’ May said” Evil pricks

The inhumanity is accelerating. There are multiple reports of ICE agents laughing as kids scream and cry, and one in this raid saying literally “fuck them kids.”

What DHS pulled in Chicago on Tuesday is wildly unconstitutional. They smashed down almost every door in the building, dragged entire families into the street, and detained people for hours ("Kavanaugh stops"). Ms. Fisher was held for five hours and another senior citizen was held for three hours.

"Rodrick Johnson, 67, is one of many residents who were detained by federal agents during the South Shore raid. A U.S. citizen, he said agents broke through his door and dragged him out in zip ties."
