Happening now in Broadview—outside Chicago:
A procession of Illinois Handmaid’s, with the Illinois Democratic Women of Cook County, walks in procession to the ICE detention facility.
“Even though we are silent, we are powerful,” an organizer told the group before starting.

Agents smashed a man's car window + dragged him out while he was waiting for his 8-months-pregnant wife.
This all happened in front of a daycare. "I just keep thinking about the kids and how they had to witness that. I saw a couple of children at the windows.”

Protesters are reporting today that state troopers at Broadview were exceptionally violent last night, lots of baton strikes including at heads and faces. Everyone arrested has been released.
Chaos. ISP just made a charge, pushing people back east toward 25th Ave., right into cars pulling out of the parking lot. I hear people talking about arrests but it's too dark to see. People panic, run.

State police and Broadview cops just arrested two more protesters. They violently yanked this person over the cement barricades (clipped bc they also then had this person's pants yanked down briefly).

At the Chicago area ICE detention center in Broadview this morning.
These aren't detention vans—they're vehicles full of Illinois State Police. Local cops are staging for a morning of protest.
Supposedly, demonstrators will be banned from 25th St today. Fence on Beach came down a few days ago.

ICE snatched—and has since separated—a family who’ve lived in Chicago for three years and were visiting Millennium Park because the daughter had begged to go. Now the mother and child are being held in a windowless room at O'Hare while the dad is inside the notorious Broadview detention facility.
Mother, children detained by ICE at Millennium Park Sunday held at O’Hare with other families: ‘We never imagined’
The mother said she felt her family was targeted because of their appearance. “There were a lot more people there, but the agents came directly to us because of how we look,” she said.
