This infuriates me on numerous levels.
First, that man shouldn’t be held by ICE.
But how can his wife think, based on what they are doing to her husband, that there is any fairness to the process whatsoever?

They’re so bad at their jobs that they can’t legally keep people in custody. No wonder Bovino left town. Embarrassing

According to the Suntimes it took 250 agents to arrest 3,000 people. Only 1,500 were even from the Chicago area. And only 75 of those were the “worst of the worst.”
So a success rate of 2.5%. Everyone else was just performative cruelty.

We don’t need those misreading the moment in the Senate. @durbin.senate.gov should resign now so that @govpritzker.illinois.gov can appoint someone to fight for democracy.

It’s become increasingly obvious people don’t know the federal government terror that is happening in Chicago right now. Share this @newrepublic.com article far and wide.

Now we need reforms of the RTA. And also the IL Tollway.

The @economist.com with a well done summary of the situation on the ground in Chicago. It’s been tough to find good summaries, so it’s good that this international publication is covering us, and calling the operation “out of hand.”

According to the forecast, rain isn’t likely downtown until late afternoon, after 5pm. Bring an umbrella as a backup plan and you’ll be fine!
