NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.
Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

Looking at this map, I think about @isabelwilkerson.bsky.social's book - The Warmth of Other Suns. It is a book about the great migration and how those who migrated were "welcomed."

How the Electoral College Could Tilt Further From Democrats Amid Redistricting and Population Shifts

Who said “knocked out”? You are projecting. Elon is a South African trust fund baby that buys technology and then acts like it was his idea. He takes drugs to mask the guilt of being a horrible dad, and Putin loyalist tasked with keeping the dumbest man in politics moving fwd on a Russia 1st agenda.
