Rep. Jamie Raskin nails it.

“It is not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not to swear in our new colleague Adelita Grijalva who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files.

"So it’s convenient for them to shut the government down."

@govpritzker.illinois.gov @ltgovstratton.illinois.gov @ilattygeneral.bsky.social @housedemsil.bsky.social @ilsendems.bsky.social Please act! Under the TRUST Act, how are IL State Police allowed to assist federal agents and to arrest peaceful protesters?
I cannot express enough how this is what has been happening for some time in Broadview. Federal agents assault, shoot chemical munitions at, and arrest protesters completely unprovoked.

And state police are now helping border patrol to combat and arrest protesters.

Great work everyone.
moments ago: pandemonium.

a huge mass of border patrol agents, led by greg bovino, pushed the crowd of protesters and started grabbing people at random.

leading up to this, folks were just calmly standing in the grass, following isp’s orders.

multiple people detained. no clue how many.

“Ashford said as she was filming at the accident scene, a federal agent told her to put her camera down. She told him, “Pull your mask off.”
“Why is y’all touching him,” an emotional man says at the scene. “Why is you choking him, man? Why is he choking him, man?”

There’s still police activity at the scene off California Avenue and Congress Parkway.

Today we’re amplifying the #DisappearedInAmerica campaign, led by a growing coalition of immigrant rights, faith, rule of law, and pro-democracy organizations.

In America, the government doesn’t get to grab people off the streets, skip the courtroom, and send them straight to a foreign prison.
