ICE in Chicago this morning at Elston and Kennicott—a masked agent tells a witness (on the sidewalk) not to get in front of his car.
Feds are continuing kidnappings across the city & burbs after increased activity this month.
No flashy CBP caravans, just a steady stream of covert ICE arrests.

One of these days, someone is going to suggest I use AI for something when I’m in a particularly bad mood, and I’m just gonna shoot myself in front of them
I feel like the "vibecession" discourse misses a fundamental point because it doesn't actually fucking matter if your real income goes up by pennies when you're struggling to get by either way.
Another morning of ICE sightings happening around Chicagoland and the northwest burbs as yes, they are still here, operating under the surface as they were before Bovino's spectacle.
A couple weeks ago, Nicholas Keung at the Toronto Star reported on how generative AI is being used to assess immigration applications in Canada...and how it's led to refusals because of stuff the AI tool added in, that humans (clearly) failed to check.

"Project Hail Mary" has unfortunately reaffirmed my belief that Harry Styles's "Sign of the Times" is just not a very good song
I'm seeing a lot of people saying "no US president has ever threatened genocide before," and I would like to please remind those people of the existence of Andrew Jackson.
Anyone who participates in any way in this evil, is also a war criminal. It is not just Trump. It’s the entire administration, the entire army apparatus from the bottom to the top. History will not judge anyone kindly for “just following orders.”
B-52 directly above the photographer with 12 visible cruise missiles on the pylons.
This is going around from a planespotter in UK ~40 minutes ago. Just to pre-bunk some things:
- The cruise missiles on the pylons are JASSMs (conventional-only), not AGM-86 (nuclear-only).
- AGM-86 is a good deal longer (thus not two rows in line), and different livery

"What can Democrats do?"
When the South Korean president attempted to declare martial law, South Korean lawmakers literally fought through tanks and military forces and climbed fences to get into their Parliament building to stop him.
So, you know, that.
The current moment in tech is loosely understood as software guys getting so evil they made hardware guys discover Marxism from first principles.
Trimmed my bush and the next day depression came roaring back, makes you think…
I actually think it’s pretty disgusting to not apologise for poor wording on your part and instead put the blame on trans people, who are directly impacted by the SCOTUS decision and are understandably dealing with a lot right now.
And this further puts a target on their back.

It's a clear and sunny day in Chicago. ICE is out and about, with vehicles sighted across the city and suburbs. Berwyn Cicero Rapid Response just confirmed feds took two people from Cicero shortly after 8am.

Welp, CBP is back to its nighttime surveillance flights over us in Chicago.
Congrats to Raja Krishnamoorthi on his new position as guest contributor to the Chicago Tribune editorial board
As the parks department destroys people’s belongings, a CPD officer decides to keep an American flag as the only thing saved from the trash truck.
Of course everyone wants their preferred candidate, but if you’re genuinely concerned about splitting the progressive vote, advocating for the candidates who have a very slim shot at winning is antithetical to that
Claiming that a race crowded progressives is bad and the fault of the progressive front runner is insane. This election has fully fried peoples’ brains.

Says a lot about him that he's still on twitter :/
And I’ll be there, waiting to perceive you when that happens 👀
Complaining is the first step towards doing. I believe this wholeheartedly
Somehow, history has returned.
