We caught the aurora at Indiana Dunes on Tuesday night and I’m still in awe. We saw bright reds, pinks, greens, and even yellow, with our eyes! See the person on the beach for an idea of the massive size of this thing!

They've already murdered someone in my city, shot another woman, zip tied children, tear gassed an elementary school, and broke six ribs of a bystander.

Low-intensity warfare is uncanny. We continue to go to work, bring kids to school, shop for groceries, etc. But our everyday routines are punctuated by random episodes of spectacular violence; war as a way of life.
Scenes From the Occupation
As the feds cracked down on immigration in Chicago this fall, filmmaker Carlos Javier Ortiz’s camera was rolling. These stills and footage show a city in crisis — and a city defiant.

Dozens of neighbors were just confronted by federal agents as they conduct immigration raids just outside Little Village, Chicago in Cicero at Ogden/26th. At least one person was pepper sprayed by an agent as they exited.

If you are on ICE watch in the Rogers Park vicinity please have a buddy and exercise extreme caution. ICE has assaulted verifiers today and arrested at least one of our people. If you are vulnerable to ICE in this area, I recommend staying inside if possible.

West Ridge this morning, 11:37am—
Neighbors witnessed Border Patrol agents arresting a man who's been building a new staircase on their building.
"Wait, this is private property," the woman recording says.
"No, it's not," the agent replies, covering his face with his jacket.

Oak Park resident Scott Sakiyama reports feds pointed weapons at him across from an elementary school today. They then arrested him and took him to Broadview. While in custody, he saw agents texting in a group chat called "Chiraq Team 2."

This is a theme we keep repeating too. Until you see it for yourself, I think it’s hard to really understand how completely unnecessary and disproportionately violent the federal response has been.
How much is for fun, terror, or social media, I don’t know. A mix of the three for sure.

I've never seen such escalation and use of force toward ends I just could not see. There was no real property destruction, no pushing into the neighborhoods to make arrests, very little obstructing of traffic. Saw chemicals and bangs deployed down streets the feds were not facing and did not travel.

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.
