Trump Administration now censoring Facebook:

Chicago Sun-Times @chicago.suntimes.com · 11h

At the request of the U.S. Department of Justice, a Facebook group used by nearly 80,000 people to report sightings of federal immigration agents in the Chicago area has been taken down by the social media giant Meta, Facebook’s parent company.

Facebook suspends popular Chicago ICE-sightings group at Trump administration’s request

The group, "ICE Sighting-Chicagoland," has been increasingly used in the last five weeks of President Donald Trump’s intense deportation campaign to warn neighbors that federal agents are nearby.

I had the unexpected pleasure of a meal with Mike Shildt last month.

Just a delightful, generous, funny man and obviously a brilliant baseball guy. I hope he's entered the universal "I need a year OFF from this crap" phase and returns; baseball is better for his presence

Wow, wow, wow. This has always been legally possible but the law has virtually never been enforced — and now this is the SECOND case I've heard of in the last month (first involving a person with a green card) of a noncitizen being charged for failure to carry their papers.

NEWS: ICE gave a Rogers Park man a $130 ticket for not having his papers on him. They rounded him up last week and eventually let him go, but not without a fine that some critics say is un-American. Trump admin enforcing little-used law

The Eric Trump Mark Levin con job:

The raid on Trump's office was in Aug. 2022 when Jack Smith was still in Europe at the Court of Justice

Smith wasn't appointed until Nov. 2022 and he didn't return to the US until Jan. 2023

Ewick is full of shit. Levin is a propagandist

The all-new Monday Countdown Podcast drops at midnight with one question:

Why are ALL of Trump's people acting as if he doesn't have much time left as president? Why are they all panicking?

Even TRUMP acting that way? The delusion about "Biden's FBI"? The posted plea "DO SOMETHING!"?

The Adams administration is moving to fast-track a deal with real estate developer Related Companies to continue running Wollman Rink, sealing it before the mayor finishes his term — and freezing out rival proposals.

It's not just that Trump needs to be removed from office under the 25th Amendment

It's that in a sane world all his gullible, culpable bat-guano-brained followers would be removed under their own 25th Amendments as well
