A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

Last night, the National Guard chased children who were out enjoying Halloween in Navy Yard.

There is no valid reason for armed soldiers to terrorize children like this. End Trump’s occupation of DC. National Guard out NOW.

Ross Douthat… welcome to Abundance.
This right here, this exact sentence, is THE problem in American political journalism.

The IRA *was* cheap energy and good jobs! That was the whole bill! Democrats did precisely what political pundits are telling them to do and the pundits just ignore it.

Extraordinary NEW story: We Found That More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. @nicolefoy.bsky.social w/ photos by @sbmaneyphoto.bsky.social
More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc
30 people disappeared in this shaded area today.

Hearing impaired (TTY): 888-261-3336

I called and talked about how the state cops joined ICE in brutalizing protesters today.

Soooo.. Pritzker is helping carry out Trump’s fascism.
We have to head off site shortly.

Most of the protest has dispersed, some handfuls of people lingering.

In the lot, IDOT workers with heavy machinery are now moving in some cement barricades.

Hearing 12-20 protesters were taken into custody. CCSO has already sent out a PR naming some of them.

Update: horrifying details about last night's raid are emerging.

Organizers + electeds are reporting potentially dozens of people (at least 40 per initial estimate) were detained. Not much more confirmed at this time.

More will be shared at press conference at 5 at corner of 75th & South Shore.
What's happening with ICE in Chicagoland today:

Federal agents continue terrorizing Back of the Yards, Broadview mayor and police chief held a presser, and neighbors in South Shore late night were startled awake by a raid on an apartment with stun grenades.
