This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

ICE has erected a gate to keep protesters out. They are blocking a public street, despite the Broadview Fire Department ordering ICE to tear it down.

Join us at 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM. Tell Broadview to tear this fence down.

As DC was taken over by Trump’s secret police, where were congressional Democrats? They weren’t in DC and some weren’t even in the US.

Instead of fighting back against the authoritarian takeover here at home, 22 House “Democrats” were being spoon-fed lies about Gaza on a trip paid for by AIPAC.

Remembering how I saw a lovely Irish band play in America for Memorial Day. They played War Pigs, thanked our troops and first responders, and immediately followed it up with Come Out Ye Black & Tans.

I know lawyering up and shutting up is scary. Believe me. I do.

But you CANNOT talk your way out of an arrest or detention.

You CAN talk your way into charges, arrest, or detention.

And you'd be amazed how often the response to lawyering up is just letting you go.

You can't make this up.

ICE left a 12-year-old completely abandoned on the street after abducting the adult he was with.

In light of the DC raids we want to reshare our ICE watch 101 graphics. Reminder to verify, document, and then report to our hotline.

DC restaurants are on alert but ICE is also targeting schools. There is currently ICE presence at the Mondo Verde school on P Street -- parents are forming a human chain and plan to do so for the rest of the week. If you're in DC and able to, they would like help
