Last anyone was talking they were still in the Charlotte Raleigh triangle area although not in the town of Charlotte itself. They are also headed for New Orleans fairly soon. But they're everywhere. Saw a couple of incidents from New York and Connecticut and Detroit this week

A lot got learned on the fly and wasn't put particularly well together. We're taking this opportunity to work out better structures and processes so that we're ready when they come back. Ice is still grabbing people but it's more individual as opposed to cpb roundups

*Nods*. The organization I did my training and volunteer work with here in Chicago was already reaching out to other cities even before Bovino's clowns left town. I know the core team has been on multiple conference calls a week with other cities since the news broke where they were going
