That's talking about paracrine production, though. I'd be surprised if enough exogenous HGH would cross the blood-brain barrier to matter, at least in the absence of hypoxic injury.

This version is confirmed, by Hoffman Estates police, puncturing the official DHS statement.

At this point, there is a statement from DHS re 🧊 activities in the Chicago area that’s refuted in similar fashion on nearly a daily basis at a minimum over the past week

Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

(I was referring to city cops, but I can't see any circumstances under which the feds decide to take on half a million motivated people head-on all at once either)

Yeah, the No Kings event this weekend is (IIUC) a permitted march; you'd have to go out of your way to get arrested there.

The least believable part of this is the landlord coming over to fix something instead of scheduling it for six months out and sending the super to fix it.

The average protester has been doing expert-level escalation management and the average ICE officer is threatening to murder ambulance drivers.

"We need a general strike" is isomorphic to "we need a carrier group"; the question is not "would it be useful", it's "how do we obtain, steer and fuel the damn thing".

Give 'em Hell, Ald. Fuentes.

Jake Wittich @jakewittich.bsky.social · 18h

The same ICE agent who handcuffed Ald. Jessie Fuentes has been filmed in at least 3 other violent encounters, including the viral arrest of a woman in Waukegan in front of the mayor.

“He’s obviously a danger to individuals and particularly women," Fuentes said.

Looks like she was just reelected this year and the Broadview electorate is sufficiently small that there might be, like, three people on Bluesky who could call her to complain as constituents.

Aside from pressuring Pritzker and Cook County, I wonder if there are any other leverage points?

Protests at the Chicago area ICE detention center are now being limited only to Beach Street going forward, according to a new executive order that Mayor Katrina Thompson has signed in consultation with the state and county, she says at a press conference this morning.
