Yesterday, Greg Bovino’s band of lawless goons unleashed chemical munitions into a car where they pepper sprayed a literal one year old. There’s of her struggling in the aftermath of a chemically burned face.

“If they are using tear gas, they better be able to back it up,” U.S. District Court Judge Sara Ellis said Oct. 28. “And if they can’t, then they will lose that as something they can use.”
Federal immigration agents have deployed gas in Little Village, on 26th between Komensky and Pulaski, per videos shared online after 11 am this morning.

This has gone on for over a month now and it seems the only response our local government has come up with is to pay private security to sit and watch the raids.

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

BIG NEWS in Chicago:
24 hours from now, DHS will be forced to change how it operates in Chicago. The facility which it uses to detain people arrested in Operation Midway Blitz is going to be under court order, and the agency will be forced to make improvements — and may have to slow down arrests in order to comply.

Really cannot stress enough how many times we’ve witnessed ICE or CBP agents laughing at and taunting protesters or bystanders as they fired chemical munitions at them.
They are having a grand time rolling with their boys, accountable to no one, wreaking havoc through our streets.
