I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

It should be allowed that, while being assaulted, the assailants' face masks can be removed by the victim during the assault. Just seems logical that a victim of any kind should know their assailaints' faces without fear of prosecution for removing it.

Aren't there window tinting laws in Illinois? I see a lot of vehicles with window tints lately that seem too dark to be permitted.
Maybe someone should look into that.

ICE followed the mother into a school and aggressively detained her along with her children.

Newsom: The New Testament and Old Testament have one dominant thing in common—Matthew, Isaiah, Luke, Proverbs, go down the list—it’s about food, about serving those who are hungry. It’s not a suggestion; it’s core and essential to what it means to align with God’s will.

Keeping this alive. "The enemy within" is whomever they decide.
Quote of the day.
“This is going to be a big thing for the people in this room, because it's the enemy from within, and we have to handle it before it gets out of control. We should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military.”

Donald Trump to the assembled top brass.

Stop calling them immigrants, protestors, or activists. Refer to them as civilians. Take control of the language and defuse their narrative. #3E

Keep a record of all crimes against humanity committed by ICE and Trump, it'll be submitted to the ICC. If the US is serious about accountability it is time to make becoming an ICC signatory a priority electoral demand. #3E #EndImpunity

@govpritzker.illinois.gov can you get a law passed in Il like Ca?

California, NY have laws that protect employees from being fired for participating in political protests. California Labor Code 1102 prohibits employers from discharging employees for engaging in political activities outside of work

Breaking and entering, no warrants, AND doing this to civilians.

Under U.S. law, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) does not have general authority to break and enter a home without a judicial warrant SIGNED BY A FEDERAL JUDGE. These are criminal actions.
