So the so-called intellectuals who spent the last 8 years writing "Has DEI gone too far?" columns were all sleeping with each other or sexually harassing or assaulting junior colleagues?

Why are Democrats screaming about Congressional hearings and the Hague. It would be so easy right now.
Here is Gregory Bovino, the man in charge of ICE agents in Chicago.

Watch for this car as it allegedly belongs to MAGA stalker Sean Nolte . Sean was previously banned from Discount Tire in Joliet after stalking and harassing No Kings Day protesters along 30 by the Louis Joliet Mall.

Bill Rubel. Is Bill still married to his wife/ex-wife who worked/works at the Menards in Plainfield?
Isn’t Edward Antony the name of the person who Argo High school named their school after and where Bill Rubel went to high school?

Watch out for William “Bill” Rubel. Another boomer creep who drives miles from the Plainfield/Joliet area to agitate, instigate, harass, stalk, and admits to committing assault peaceful protesters protesting ICE at Broadview.

Remembering when some accused us of being histrionic when we warned that TPUSA was a nazi youth recruitment front.

On Fri night 10/17, three skull masked white dudes (people who interacted with them guessed them to be late teens / early 20's) in matching outfits showed up trying to intimidate people. They openly stated they were white supremecists. They were surrounded and then escorted out by cops to safety.

This was a conference put on by Richard Spencer at DC Press Club in Feb. 2015 just a few months before Trump said he was running for President (someone actually says they should back Trump for President in this). It would be curious people anyone in this video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cqh...

“Government action here has been extreme in its treatment of an array of normal First Amendment-protected activity as evidence of terrorism; the blunt force effort to treat anti-fascism as terrorism should worry us all.”

I'm sure there are some folks at CBS that like her, but I'd bet even those people don't want her in that job because it might destroy their livelihood.

“They literally ushered us into the street to protest and immediately after started beating the shit out of us.”

This is 100% an accurate description of how this started.

Broadview PD mishandled the situation from the start, then unleashed ISP to beat the protesters they’d led into the street.

Protesters have said state and local police officers have attacked them and tried to stifle their attempts to speak and protest freely outside the Broadview ICE facility.
