in which greg bovino threatens a federal judge on fox news
Bovino: "Whether they were criminals or individuals that were taking jobs from Americans -- you name it, that's what they were doing. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen. We're gonna go even harder on the streets. If he releases those 650, we're gonna apprehend 1,650 on the streets of Chicago."

This is both A) incredibly suspicious, and B) within what I would accept as normal levels of government incompetence.
So, you know, we'll see how the judge takes it.

An interesting tidbit in the joint status report filed in the Broadview ICE facility case today:
ICE says video from inside the facility "between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed" and can't be produced in discovery.

They’re calling Megyn Kelly the Olivia Reingold of pedophile sex traffacking
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

politicians and executives know that unnecessary everyday chemicals are leading to death and suffering for millions of us with loved ones who get cancer and parkinson’s. journalists don’t treat it as an urgent “public safety” issue like they treat shoplifting by poor people.

According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

New: Diana Santillana Galeano, whom federal immigration agents dragged out of a Rayito del Sol daycare on Chicago's north side last week, has been released from federal custody, the law firm HSPRD announced Thursday.
The release states she will meet with Rayito del Sol parents on Friday.

- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."

Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he started in creeping on 14-year-old Sally Hemings. And Sally, who was enslaved, shared a father with Martha Wayles Jefferson—Tom's wife.
He's been dead literally centuries and the US refuses to reckon squarely with what this meant for definitions of American greatness

You have to understand what pieces like this from the NYT are and are not.
They are not an honest assessment of the state of politics today.
They are a negotiation tactic—an effort by a calcified, right-leaning legacy institution to steer the discourse in a direction more palatable to elites.

Who’s behind those texts slamming Mayor Johnson and some progressive alders for their ‘snap curfew’ vote? • The TRiiBE
A round of political text messages are circulating in Chicago after the mayor’s veto on a youth curfew ordinance. Experts say these campaigns are only going to increase from here.

It's been rumored for a bit they would leave mid-November. It's not the weather, just the natural lifespan of a ~225 person operation.
Before Border Patrol arrived, ICE was still here. They were smashing cars to pull people out of them, taking people from court and check-in appointments, etc.

Bovino left LA to come to Chicago and it's not like LA saw immigration operations stop - just less showboating from his crew. So even if these circulating rumors over the last week turn out real, I'm pessimistic about how much change to expect on the ground.
