Broadview's mayor keeps calling the protesters "out of towners." Every time we are there, we talk to people from the town on the front lines.
(Also this is a tiny town y'all, it's reasonable for someone in like...Brookfield or Melrose Park to feel like this is their community as well!)

“mass deportation” trauma from this era is going to be a scar that’s with us for a long time
“With immigration agents under intense pressure to deport thousands of people each day, Ms. Lopez was pushed through the system swiftly and was deported within four days of the factory raid.
As a result, Jorge is now cared for by two siblings who are barely adults themselves.”

Again it’s not good that the most prominent leaders of the party keep insisting it’s a trap to talk about “identity” when the Trump administration is pushing white supremacy.
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25
Pete Buttigieg critiques Democrats for focus on identity

My additional takeaway from this letter is that Jim Ryan, a personal friend from my days on the UVA Law faculty, is, by virtue of his moderate temperament and personal decency, unsuited to knife fights with people who have neither.
my takeaway from this letter is that glenn youngkin, rector sheridan and their flunkies on the board are deeply dishonest people who are engaged, with the trump administration, in a mob-style shakedown against the university of virginia
Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ.

We get the beginning signs that the board is working closely with the governor in order to make changes aligning with EOs that do not have the force of law (so complicity, not compliance) and throwing up administrative hurdles to upper admin communicating with the public.

Imagine being one of these filthy fascist pigs, doing this, and thinking you are doing good. Who is protected by this?
at one point, i watched a cook county sheriff’s officer (who appears to be in charge) point out a priest in the crowd.
he and a couple officers then went into the crowd , dragged him into the street, and arrested him.
situation is still tense as crowd jostles with police to get into the street.

Trump has declared some foreign orgs a “antifa terrorist” organizations, basically outright admitting that his regime is fascist. I am a proud antifa supersoldier.
My NSPM-7 coverage has for weeks been met with smug assurances that there's no law for domestic terrorism. Well, the Trump admin just designated Antifa groups as Foreign Terror Orgs - for which there is a law:
