“…appreciate what you're doing,' because most of Chicago does want this," said Goone, a suburbanite who works in casino marketing.
"These people just are doing their jobs."
Goone praised the officers for going after "illegals for coming here illegally."
What did Goone think of the protesters?
"This here is organized by George Soros and antifa, and I wouldn't doubt that half are being paid to protest," [underlined by me] Goone speculated without any evidence. [end underlining] "I don't understand what they're doing."
The agents' presence downtown is the latest part of a campaign by Trump's administration against immigration. The administration announced the launch of "Operation Midway Blitz" on Sept. 8, bringing a flood of federal officers to the Chicago area to conduct raids and arrests.
Since then, hundreds of Chicago-area residents have been arrested.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:poqkqc3eyky43vkwj2k7d3n4/bafkreicrq3w4ygrovvetf6qm3ciyptwadsj7mxkihxmujz37ffdjdg43uq@jpeg)

No disagreement here, but this screenshot shows the position of your post in my feed and it took me a moment to get that it probably wasn’t meant as political commentary about suing the Trump administration.

Does anyone understand why NBC appears to have called Missouri for Trump at 8:05pm CST with 6% of the votes counted and Harris ahead 51/48 without any votes from St. Louis City or County? AP hasn't called it yet.

They also conclude that 22.6% of this inexplicably diminished Black vote will go for Trump, among other unlikely outcomes.

^This^ A guy near us (we’re watching in Indy) just found out the hard way when he looked through his binoculars (on top of his eclipse glasses) at the sun for a couple of seconds and the light melted holes in the film. (He thinks he turned his head before he did any damage to his eyes.)
