Greg Bovino is back in Chicago, and ICE has been spotted in the Evanston area.

Come pick up a whistle, if you need one!

Massie: Previous presidents told us to go to war over WMDs that did not exist. Now it's the same playbook. Except we're told that drugs are the WMDs. If it were about drugs, we'd bomb Mexico or China or Colombia. This is about oil and regime change.
