In Illinois, ICE agents have been documented swapping license plates to hide their identity. Under Illinois law, this constitutes a Class A misdemeanor.
The state has made clear that this law will be enforced. Federal agents are not exempt from Illinois vehicle and registration statutes.

Day 17 of the ICE occupation of the Twin Cities.
Reminder in today’s weather that ICE agents (somewhat ironically) don’t know how to drive in our winter weather.
Be safe out there, and strong in community. We know that we will win.

I respectfully disagree with the jury’s verdict in the Judge Hannah Dugan case.
The trial evidence showed that Judge Dugan did not obstruct ICE agents from arresting an undocumented immigrant.
Let’s see what happens on appeal. Meanwhile, our support for Judge Dugan continues.

ICE is arguing in court that US CITIZENS can be detained, handcuffed, and biometrically screened unless they can prove citizenship on the spot. And that a REAL ID isn't enough. This isn't border security. It's a "papers-please" America where freedom is conditional and innocence comes last.

Hello Bluesky family. I could use some advice from anyone that has experience with helping their adult children recover from trauma. I have suggested counseling of course. My daughter was impacted by a recent school shooting and is displaying serious signs of trauma. She is not physically injured. 😢
