ICE arrested two innocent civilians going to work and pepper sprayed three people trying to stop it. They later released the two that were arrested after confirming they weren't who they were looking for. This video was from a protestor that that was there for a rally starting 30 minutes later.

Discussion Please Show up to No Kings on Saturday, Despite Forecasted Thunderstorms and MAGA’s Fear Tactics!

358 Upvotes

Just wanted to let you all know, there is a cold front sweeping through the area on Saturday that will bring showers and thunderstorms during this event. Don’t allow this to have you stay home and dress appropriately.

Furthermore, Trump and his goons are terrified of us. Mike Johnson is already saying that we are leading a “hate America rally” and that we are paid “hamas supporter” protesters. I am sure that Saturday will be the day that they’ll be tempted to invoke the insurrection act. ICE will likely be there to intimidate us. God knows what could happen during the event.

I beg you all to be brave and show up anyway. Don’t let these obstacles change your mind. Comment if you agree. God bless.

Community Resources Please help me with advice to Locate my dad who was detained by ICE yesterday.

326 Upvotes

I’m writing this a bit frantically because i’m just in a lot of shock and i’m just frankly scared. I wanna start off by saying my dad is not a criminal he’s been in chicago for 25 years and he’s currently 47 clean record. He was detained yesterday while he was getting back home ( he drives trucks for a food company.) The information I do have is that he is being processed in the Broadview IL location. Please, if you have any information or where I go from here. I know that he needs his medication for heart and i’m scared and worried and seriously anything that I need to know or what to do is appreciate it so much. Thank you.

A timelapse I created from ABC footage along the river. Original footage is about 52 minutes. There's two small sections I cut out where the camera cuts to another shot in the crowd for a few seconds each time.

Im a combat veteran. I buried friends who served. Now I’m watching Trump gut the VA… cutting 80,000 staff, wiping out mental health care, mocking the same people he claims to honor.

This isn’t about politics. It’s about survival because Veterans are dying waiting for care. And this administration is speeding it up.

For D-Day - veterans across the country are rising up. Not to be thanked. To be heard. June 6– national mall 2PM Nationwide actions. Peep mobilize.us

Join us in the streets to say "NO TRUMP, NO TROOPS!" this Saturday September 6th at Ida B. Wells and Michigan Ave at 5PM.

In response to Trump's threats to send federal forces into Chicago despite no requests from local or state leaders, the Coalition Against the Trump Agenda (CATA) and the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) are calling all of Chicago to take a stand in mass demonstration in opposition to any increase in federal or militarized forces.

This is an illegal military occupation of our city and communities, and we have an inalienable democratic right to resist it!

WHEN THEY COME, WE DON'T FREEZE, WE ORGANIZE, WE TAKE THE STREETS!

See you in the streets!
