Oh this judge has had it with ICE.
Ellis: "This is the Chicagoland I see. From Aurora to Cicero, and Chicago to Evanston to Waukegan. This is a vibrant place, brimming with vitality and hope. Striving to move forward from its complicated history."

YES WE WILL.
The fascists are not inevitable. They're not unstoppable. They're not all powerful. They want you to think that, but millions turned out last month to call their bluff. And millions turned out today to claim our power. We will win.

I’m doing research for a project and found out about the “don’t buy where you can’t work” movement during the depression, where Black people boycotted and picketed places that wouldn’t hire us. Shout out to everyone who’s not going back to Target!
"Don't Buy Where You Can't Work" | National Museum of African American History & Culture.
<p>“Don’t Buy Where You Can’t Work” campaigns of the 1930s used effective direct-action tactics, such as boycotts and picketing. </p>

U.S. 📻 played us the wrong Chumbawamba song!

🎶 The world is riddled with maggots;
the maggots are getting fat

They're making a tasty meal of the bosses & bureaucrats

They're taking over the boardrooms; they're fat & full of pride

& they all came out of the woodwork on the day the Nazi died 🎶

You did nothing for us you sack of lard

You took $25M from this village after years of planning

It will take an estimated $140M per village now to relocate them

You took sacred land

You are building a road no one wants

You are drilling when no one in Alaska wants more rigs

Fuck you 🖕🖕🖕

You know who the real freeloaders in this country are? Not people who rely on SNAP, but corporations whose business model depends on wages so low that taxpayers have to feed their workers.

Last night in Portland, Portland city council person @candaceavalos.bsky.social woke up to her car and home on fire from suspected arson. She has been a target of the far-right for months, by people like Andy Ngo, who has admitted on court record that his posts targeting people can lead to violence.

Trump & his ICE thugs don't want you to see this. They are using brutality & violence to terrorize the American people.

Banks are required by law to flag suspicious transactions right away so law enforcement can stop monsters like Epstein. JPMC is one of several banks that willingly chose not to alert law enforcement about Epstein's money laundering and trafficking payments.
