I love my city.
NEWS: Americans are marching through snowfall in Chicago, chanting, protesting, refusing to be silent against ICE. Freezing temps. Zero fear. This isnโt a moment, itโs a movement. Iโve never seen anything like this. Respect to every single person out there putting their body

Them: Why was he at a protest with a gun? Me: Why were border patrol agents in the middle of a city instead of at the border?

All I see whenever I open up this app is ordinary people being brave and kind and often getting shot, and political "leaders" being sociopaths or cowards.

It will haunt me for the rest of my life.
There is nothing that can prepare you for seeing a ghost car, knowing one or more of your neighbors was taken and you werenโt there to stop it. No matter how many you see.

I donโt want to hear another thing regarding ICE from @TheDemocrats until the official party stance is to dismantle this rogue institution. Until then, itโs all performative.

Another person murdered on camera, in broad daylight, right in front of our eyes. Reform is not enough. Abolish ICE now. There must be justice for these killings.

This Chicagoan welcomes you to the table! Welcome to the best cities in the country table. ๐ค
Minneapolis deserves a seat at the table with NYC, Chicago, and LA. We donโt have the size, but we have the spine. You canโt buy this kind of strength and community.

The Minneapolis general strike--in frozen winter--is one of the most inspiring things to happen in the US in a long time

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets. Any Democrat who doesnโt support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party. This is non negotiable. You cannot support the existence of this fascist secret police.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson calls for a general strike against the โtyrannyโ of Trump and the greed of the ultra-rich. An estimated 300,000 filled the streets for the โNo Kingsโ march, powerfully rejecting the federal governmentโs โOperation Midway Blitzโ against the city.

This is how you write an article! Thank you @KarliBell33 for being fair and laying out all of the history, especially in that last section.
Appreciate the patience. My thoughts: The Chicago Sky don't have the best poker face, and players - both current and past - are calling them out at the WNBA poker table. Read more here โฌ๏ธ https://t.co/C4WfuJZiFI

Q: โAre you worried all this pushback could provoke Trump to follow-through with sending the National Guard?โ CHICAGO MAYOR BRANDON JOHNSON: โAs a descendant of slaves, can you imagine if my ancestors had that same rationale?โ
