I don't know how Pritzker will ultimately handle this. He may not know either. But he's establishing a line here: Federal troops and National Guard troops from other states are not welcome in Illinois.
The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.

Parker was shot in the head with a flashbang in LA. Her skull was fractured and she had bleeding on her brain. She’s now back out there protesting and documenting.
Because she says we have to.
That’s bravery.

Coverage dismissing the fact that National Guard are “just patrolling safe tourist areas” is missing the point.

The very nature of a presence patrol — I did hundreds of these in Iraq — is to project strength.

That’s to embolden your allies.

And to threaten your enemies.

Just a few days ago, 14th Street was taken over by a checkpoint where police and federal forces profiled and brutally detained people until organizers shut it down.

Today, people came together on 14th & U with @freedcproject_ to demand an end to the occupation.

Had a post go viral on 8/8 with the song chanting "Death Death to the IDF". Guess whose page was flagged this morning and the song removed? That's right, tiktok. The censorship is loud and clear

We spent Friday night along a stretch of U Street — a nightlife hub and among the areas of the city with the highest number of crimes reported this year.
