Since Bovino left it seems every day or every other day I hear of someone abducted by ICE agents. It’s slower, less flashy, but still happening.
“Rey Wences, senior director of deportation defense at the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, noted that “abductions” continue happening “every day in both the city and the suburbs.”

Federal agents used chemical weapons on Chicagoans at least 49 times — even after a judge said to stop.
Contrary to federal claims about attacks on agents, most of these incidents appear to involve nonviolent protesters or bystanders. blockclubchi.co/47PoaXb

So, take away people’s jobs, benefits, SNAP, and jack up their insurance premiums so much they can’t afford health care. Then just when people are getting really desperate, offer them $300/person to become bounty hunters and sell out their neighbors. Do I have this right? I hate it here.
NEW: a contractor is paying random people $300 to physically track immigrants for ICE. They're given addresses, vehicles, told to monitor the target. That information then goes back up to ICE. These are not licensed private investigators; members of the public

We have people with badges and whistles standing at every intersection within two blocks of our school at pickup and drop off and there’s enough of them to rotate shifts and not get burned out

if you're waiting for some big dramatic "hide the Frank family in your attic" moment? You gotta start smaller.
think about how to get those kids to school
GUARD THOSE SCHOOLS
have people watching during pickup and dropoff and at recess if possible
