The west side is being hit hard today. Similar roving kidnapping operations seen in mid city & ktown last week. Cannot stress how much community defense is necessary and needed right now.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:
- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Our position is that the Olympics cannot be reformed. Efforts to do so elsewhere have consistently failed. There is no “good” way to host the Olympics.

I don't want 100 troops sent to Chicago. It's a major escalation that must be opposed.
