I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.

There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

“I spent three nights and three days in federal custody. During that time, I was never told what I was charged with, was not allowed to shower despite being covered in tear gas and pepper spray, had no phone call to my family, and no access to an attorney.” - George Retes, U.S. citizen and veteran.

I’m a US citizen and a veteran. ICE arrested me for no reason.

Jailed for three days without an explanation or ability to notify anyone, George Retes argues the only path to healing starts with the government taking accountability for its actions.

It's all we can do. Being without income in the US can lead to serious negative consequences. Most of us live paycheck to paycheck.

Someone who thinks that dagging children from their homes in the dark of night & zip tying them, assaulting priests, & violating American's rights....makes "jesus smile" is someone who is a bad person, not an "avenging angel".

Those who join ice are abusive cowards.

Odd thing to say when your buddy Kegseth said the Qatari air base in Idaho was a "monumental moment."

BARTIROMO: What is the function of this Qatar facility? People are wondering if this is an airbase. What are they developing in Idaho?

Intimidation is used when a group, weaker in numbers is trying to subdue a much larger portion of the populace. The goal is for the larger group to feel fear and give up their power, willingly.
If 100 folks are recording 8 ICE officers, those officers will drive away like the bitch asses they are.

Based on the most recent reports from community members and rapid response teams, isis is now arresting people including you as citizens for impeding. This is happening to the people that drive around honking to alert people that they're in the area and those that record them

There's no reason to assume you're getting the truth from ICE, DHS or anything coming from this regime or their MSM collaborators as this point. It's all just lies.

Idaho is the white supremacist militia capital of the country. Just wondering how they're going to react to the news that a wealthy Muslim nation is going to have an airbase in their backyard. I don't see that going well. Will they drop Trump over it? Remains to be seen, but it'll be interesting.

Big Tech practices have been swirling down the ethical toilet for well over a decade, as Cory Doctorow covers in his 2025 book “Enshittification.” Maureen Tkacik reviews the downfall of American tech companies:

Brown Stage Capitalism

Cory Doctorow’s ‘Enshittification’ describes how tech platforms (and everything else) went down the sewer. Hint: It rhymes with ‘deshmegulation.’

We are seeing dozens of these videos every day. It's happening all over the ocuntry. I know many people are outraged but it's just continuing unabated.

This feeling of impotence is devastating. How does it end? With the country emptied of brown people and dissidents in jail?
