Video of incident we mentioned earlier—masked ICE agents rushing to move a car out of the road after they broke windows and detained someone on the southwest side.
This car was eventually returned to family.
We're told agents abandoned several other vehicles today around Chicago.
More than 50 years after Augusto Pinochet’s coup, apologists for its neoliberal dictatorship are close to taking office. But Communist Jeannette Jara could block them from taking power.

My Polish grandpa was a Nazi POW, and I am proud to have been able to write this piece in his memory to mark 80 years since the anti-fascist victory in Europe for @theprogressivemag.bsky.social

OPINION: Just last week, Hungary’s ruling Fidesz party adopted a bill that would allow the government to temporarily strip dual citizens of their Hungarian passports, should they be deemed to have acted “in the interest of foreign powers.”
The ambitions of this bill are clear as day.
what a brilliant and definitely useful technology
Fox chyron: "Maryland dad" is a migrant criminal
Fox News has resorted to just straight up lying about Abrego Garcia, who has never been convicted or even charged with a crime
The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.
This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.
I don't think I see the media making this distinction enough.
"Deportation" is generally understood to be a transfer of a person to *liberty* elsewhere.
Transferring them to indefinite, violent detention is not deportation.

The party that won Germany’s election is radically softening its approach to working with the far right as the reality of the country’s transformed political landscape starts to bite.
How's that poem go? "First they came for the communists / And I did not speak out / Because I was not a communist." Big thanks to @theprogressivemag.bsky.social for allowing me to share this experience.
In a new study of 25000 heterosexual couples correlates to a previous study that showed when the wife was sick, the rate of divorce was 7x higher than if the husband was sick.
They're here legally. They have SSNs, a driver's license, jobs cleaning hotels. They gave immigration officials their address. On Monday, federal agents took them from their home in handcuffs as their children screamed @teoarmus.bsky.social @mariasacchetti.bsky.social Steve Thompson

“Senior described Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair.”
A legal resident, abused upon return, no explanation given… 😳
NEW: Family of Mahmoud Khalil just released footage of his arrest

Agents seen continuing to ignore Mahmoud’s wife as she asks basic questions

Mr. Khalil saw an agent approach Agent Hernandez and say, “the White House is requesting an update.”

New: we've obtained a leaked list of the more than 200 sites, services, apps an ICE surveillance contractor monitors. Bluesky, OnlyFans, many more. Used to track targets. Highly relevant with the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil by ICE. We've published the full list here: www.404media.co/the-200-site...
