Tune in to Newshour on @pbsnews.org at 6 p.m. (after watching Chicago Tonight at 5:30 p.m., of course) on @wttw.bsky.social to watch me break down today's dramatic hearing with @amnanawaz.bsky.social

No one should fear showing up to work and no child should ever have to witness this downright evil act. I continue to advocate for the Protecting Sensitive Locations Act to ensure our schools and child care centers remain safe spaces and free from this kind of cruelty. 19thnews.org/2025/11/chil...

Apologies for the delay! It was a long presser. Here's some highlights from some of the speakers, starting with attorney Steve Art's comments on federal agents abusing protestors, using tear gas and other weapons on Chicago streets:

Other attorneys who spoke at the presser wished to remind the public that they can visit tinyurl.com/chicagotro to report when federal immigration agents in Chicagoland potentially violate District Judge Sara Ellis' injunction order against abuse of press, protestors and religious practitioners.

It’s “extreme” that the judge essentially ordered DHS to follow their own use of force policy—and the Constitution.

If you'd like to know what counts as a violation of U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis' injunction order against federal immigration agents' violent behavior in Chicagoland (you can report alleged violations at tinyurl.com/chicagotro), the full written version of the order can be found here:

FULL STORY: Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino, who led a series of increasingly aggressive raids across Chicago and its suburbs, lied about firing tear gas at protesters in Little Village and tackling a man outside the Broadview ICE facility, a federal judge said Thursday. @wttw.bsky.social

Full written version of the injunction is available here: cst.brightspotcdn.com/37/f5/b85033...

others have said it and it's worth repeating, the Trump admin's occupation of Chicago isnt about immigration enforcement, it's about provoking confrontation and trying to create the conditions to declare martial law during an election yr. it's coming to your city next.

Afternoon! I've been reporting a lot these past few weeks on the Trump admin's assault on Chicago rolling from the streets into the courts. I love this work, but being freelance atm, I'm relying on community for support. If you like my reporting, I'd appreciate any tips you'd care to send my way:

Her legislative accomplishments are legendary Her leadership during one of the most turbulent times in US history has been unparalleled And her constant battle to secure this nation's values is inspiring America will forever be greater because of the Speaker Emerita Thank you Nancy Pelosi

All across the country, people are standing up to the tyranny of Donald Trump and his ICE brownshirts Mamdani tells ICE they will be held accountable for criminal actions in NY A judge curbs the use of munitions against protesters in Chicago And a DC jury exonerated Sandwich Guy WE WILL PREVAIL

Just so we’re clear, Trump doesn’t want to do this. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

Project 2026 will bury Project 2025 and end The Trump Regime in 12 months. #ProudBlue

Sean Dunn, the Sandwich Guy, found NOT guilty for throwing his subway hero at officers. Congratulations, Sean! 🐸 #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus... #ProudBlue. Jury acquits DC Sandwich Guy. This was the most ridiculous prosecution in history. Ya know the old adage“A Grand Jury will indict a ham sandwich”? Maybe so but they will not convict a man for throwing a Subway Sandwich at ICE. Total waste of courts time

The officer said it exploded when it hit him and smelled like "onions and mustard." Then they showed a pic of the intact sandwich still in its wrapper. The jury says “Not guilty!” #RESIST #Pinks #ProudBlue #StrongerTogether #SandwichGuy

Bravo HALF BAKED PROSECUTION NOT GUILTY

All jokes aside, what an absolute farce and waste of taxpayer money. Even if the sandwich HAD “exploded” against the agent’s bulletproof vest, ask any Uvalde parent of the 21 elementary school shooting victims *without vests* if a sandwich compares to high velocity rifle rounds. Pirro. 😡

Ham sandwich not guilty! I repeat, hammy sammy not guilty! Raise a sandwich tonight. 🥪🥂🥪

thehill.com/homenews/sen... Democrats HOLD FIRM SO MANY AMERICANS ARE SUFFERING SO MANY AMERICANS ARE COUNTING ON YOU TO NOT GIVE IN WITHOUT A MAJOR DEAL

This is what Trump and Republicans are doing to CHILDREN and families with their fascist, racist policies. It is grotesque, ANTI-American and totally unacceptable. We all deserve to live in America without fear. These heinous attacks by Trump’s ICE Gestapo must stop. We must ERADICATE TRUMPISM.

#ThankYouNancy Greatest Speaker Ever You have fought authoritarian bullies everywhere - from Beijing to DC You made huge legislation happen, protected Social Security, fought for Democracy and saved lives. Proud to be your constituent for 26 years.

The Trump-Republican healthcare plan. A picture is worth a thousand words indeed. Side note: if I faint, please call a doctor and not, oh I don’t know, Stephen Miller. 😱

As an antibully advocate in the Texas school system, the main lesson I used to impress upon kiddos was “never give your power away.” Speaker Emirita Nancy Pelosi instilled that lesson upon ME decades ago, especially as a woman. #ThankYouNancy, and congratulations on your retirement! 💖🙏🏽

On top of Tuesday's electoral triumphs, today we have another. Three cheers for Sandwich Guy! I hope he can bring charges against the goons who caused this. #ProudBlue

It's also an area that is going to be seriously hurt by Trump's refusal to release food stamps & other assistance. Many poor people in need. #ProudBlue

Mamdani wants to make life more AFFORDABLE for the NYC working class. A wealth tax of 2% on incomes over $1,000,000 has magnified the greed in billionaires Trump knows if NYC achieves a strong social safety net system, all of America will want the same Don’t believe their scare tactics! #ProudBlue

Follow Trump's narration of this event for a dramatic example of Trump's priorities, when a man only slightly older than he is collapses during a presentation. #ProudBlue

MSNBC: When we see wins like the Democrats put together on Tuesday, we can’t attribute it to clever strategy, blistering attack ads or the skills of the candidates they nominated — but to widespread opposition to the party in charge of the country. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

Trump is refusing to send anyone to this important climate summit, because he doesn't acknowledge climate change. Gov. Newsome is going instead, maintaining his perfect score putting the real world in the forefront. #ProudBlue www.thedailybeast.com/gavin-newsom...

1️⃣ This week, DecentraLab pulled back the curtain on how right-wing outrage spreads. What we found from Oct 31 → Nov 5 isn’t random; it’s a machine built to hijack your emotions and flood your feeds. #Voices4Victory #DV1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

Welcome to the Upside Down World. A world where MTG praises Nancy Pelosi while criticizing Republicans. It seems Greene changed her psych meds from crazy as fuck to decent human being overnight. Or maybe she was hypnotized. Something weird is going on with her for sure. #ProudBlue

Oval Office Emergency! It was not 47, but “As the man fell to the floor, Kennedy quickly turned and walked away. Meanwhile, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Mehmet Oz attempted to provide aid.” #Pinks #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue www.rawstory.com/rfk-26742721...

How a band of progressive candidates overturned Cy-Fair ISD's conservative majority www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston.... #ProudBlue. Blue Wave prevailed even here in Texas. The Republican slate of candidates for Cy-Fair school board were ousted by progressive Dems. Texas is slowly turning blue

#ProudBlue #Resist The verdict is in - use of force by ICE etc. in Chicago continues to be limited. Read the article! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

I've been upset over SNAP being taken away from people who will now go hungry without help. Today I took 2 boxes of food to a local community food bank. There were a lot of people there doing the same thing. It really did my heart good to see so many cars lined up to donate.❤️ #ProudBlue #Pinks

Our President?

Still in Chicago's Dirksen Federal Courthouse this afternoon, listening as attorneys for the plaintiffs in the injunction order entered against federal agents' violent behavior in Chicagoland issue a statement.

This—agents driving around in circles and provoking the community—has gone on for hours at this point with no discernible goal other than to inflict terror. They also just fired pepper balls at someone.

new: at least 26 unhoused chicagoans have been abducted since the start of "operation midway blitz." the full scope of people disappeared is likely much larger but is obscured by heavy criminalization, social stigma, and fewer eyes and phones around to bear witness. via @katieprout.bsky.social

FULL STORY: Finding that federal agents repeatedly used force that “shocks the conscience” and lied about their actions, a federal judge issued a sweeping injunction designed to permanently rein in agents’ use of tear gas and pepper balls. @wttw.bsky.social news.wttw.com/2025/11/06/f...
