No one knows how many people ICE has kidnapped, how many have been shipped overseas or how many are still detained. Many have no contact with family or any lawyers, and no one who knows them knows where they are. Many are being held indefinitely in facilities that refuse oversight

Not one. You know the grift I showed everyone. It’s skimming and money laundering combined, done in 8 steps, here it is in case you missed it. DESANTIS skims money from EVERY policy and budget item. Everything OVER priced for him and Casey to steal. I been on them non stop from day one ☝🏾.

Q: We've seen images out of Chicago of federal agents shooting faith leaders with pepper balls and arresting journalists. Where's the limit for you on what's acceptable conduct by federal agents?

Armed men in “POLICE” vests, carrying rifles, are following women on Chicago streets. Unmarked cars. No ID. No warrants. No proof they are law enforcement. And yet, residents are expected to keep walking, eyes forward, pretending the danger isn’t real.

From a Chicago Police scanner:
A man in a vest marked "POLICE," carrying a rifle, was seen following a woman near a Petco (possibly 3046 Halsted). He got into a black
Ram 4.
Men with guns are stalking women in Chicago... no ID, no warrants, unmarked cars, no proof they're even cops... and we're expected to just look away.
ICE isn't making this city safer.
They're making it easier for women and children to be trafficked.
