In the USA, you can't even go to a pharmacy without masked ICE terrorists rampaging through the isles. Here, in Chicago, Kristi Noem's terrorists terrorize a store and its customers.

This is his go-to answer. He always says he doesn't know, hasn't seen it, or needs to learn more about it.

There's only two choices here: he's willfully ignorant or he's lying. Neither are acceptable for a Speaker of the House.

Tomorrow will bring obscene displays of Trump self congratulation propaganda via corrupted mass media, so take care, avoid or be prepared for the mental assault, its great there’s a pause & exchange of hostages but Palestinian death & suffering continues in Gaza & the conveniently ignored West Bank

The airstrikes may have stopped, but the real war in Gaza has just begun, a silent war of grief and shattered hearts.
Every night without those we lost, Gaza turns into one endless house of mourning.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

My father was an immigrant, and later naturalized citizen. I am first generation. These terms matter. Especially, as they try to gut the 14th Amendment and birthright citizenship.

This is mislabeled. Melania is not first generation; she's an immigrant. Barron is first generation. (As are Ivanka, Don Jr., and Eric).

The fact that they don't is a good example of why most of us now ignore them.

Why is this surprising? Hillary is rabidly pro-Israel. What about Bari Weiss would offend her.

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning.

A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

Unless the so-called opposition party, & the unions, organize & call out mass, sustained, demonstrations, and a general strike, the country will accept anything. Ignoring the 4th amendment, concentration camps, the occupation of one of the greatest cities in the world by troops from another state.

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.

This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.

Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

Have seen a few troopers out here without their name patches. This one tells me they're not required to wear them "with this uniform."

Asked him to identify himself and he then told me his name is "Tad Nelson."

This is piracy! The navies of the United States, U.K. , E.U. countries, and Turkey, should be protecting this flotilla in international waters. Heck, they should BE the flotilla.

Watching Judgement at Nuremberg. I first saw it, when I was a young boy, on Bloody Sunday, when the cops attacked civil rights marchers in Selma. It's frighteningly more relevant today.
