The only thing missing from this attack in Chicago or the dogs to keep the people in line. Plus, not spring, the walls ceilings and floors to kill the people who might be hiding there.
All else looked just like a film about those horrible men and the horrible things they did.
I have been sharing this info on Bluesky and Facebook. There is a growing call for MSM to run this story. Local news stations in Chicago did cover it. But we can not let the story fade away until the next time it happens! Please share this with everyone!
I'm old enough to remember the 1969 FBI raid that killed Fred Hampton and Mark Clark in Chicago. I came of political age listening to the stories of civil rights activists, labor organizers, and targets of McCarthy's witchhunt a half-generation or more older than I. As a college student in Washington, D.C., in 1971 I saw martial law at firsthand during the crackdown on the May Day demonstrations -- during which people who gathered in groups of three or more were subject to arrest. I've known all my adult life what the U.S. government is capable of. So while I'm shocked by that raid in Chicago, I'm not exactly surprised. The U.S. has been headed in this direction at least since Reagan's election. Are we finally ready to face what we have become?
If something like this happened right here on my block in Flatbush I would call the police and say there’s a home invasion in progress. They would be here fast. What then? Would they really intervene? At the very least they would be here to be witnesses. Would they do something if a 77 year old white guy, like me, were the victim of ICE? What about Black and Brown people? I would be surprised if ICE clears their raids with the local police. There’s also the 1965 Panther approach: community monitoring of authorities’ radio and organized presence. It just seems that some kind of organized response would help.
Its apparently legal and officially accepted to terrorize and maim anyone who is black or Hispanic and poor and defenseless. Under new regime terror and murder are "perfect " and nothing wrong" and defended by someone named woke or who believes in diversity.
great idea to repost this, Steve...where is the media????? this is a leading, horrifying story of the essence of TRUMP regime lawlessness and the height of racist roundups! KKK in a different uniform and mask!!! Same terrifying agenda!
Our best hope is Trump is going too fast and losing people who aren’t as ready for the evil part of his plan.
We must accept that we’re not all alike. There are as many Americans who enjoy bashing immigrants as there ones who are mortified by this. We’re here because we chose a leader from the dark side. And we did that because fascists took over our schools decades ago. See WhiteChalkCrime.com. My book A Graver Danger takes you inside our schools for the first time.
Somehow Democrats need to prove they have some worth when they messed up so badly—particularly our education system. They’d win over people if they admitted they messed education up and offered people a plan to end school shootings that exist because education is so corrupt—people think it’s just dysfunctional when we could end these shootings if leaders would listen to teacher whistleblowers.
Until the Democrats come up with a plan to restore democracy, we aren’t going to feel much hope for them . They’ve operated on the surface for far too long, while we had an education system disconnected from its purpose of molding citizens.
We got the leader a corrupt education system helped us choose and we’re still not seeing a Democratic leader acknowledging this truth including Randi Weingarten, Union President, who just came out with a best selling book touting how our teachers are democracy’s support system when she knows that fascist-like dictators run way too many of our schools and they’ve turned way too many of our teachers into their puppets.
Democratic leaders with courage rather than cover ups is our only way out of this horror.
I’m really curious exactly what this attack cost. For 37 “arrests”? Per arrest?
And the helicopters were necessary why??
Noem is going to start racking up fatalities (I know there have already been some). I know the cruelty is the goal, but dragging naked kids out into the street in the middle of the night will leave them with permanent trauma.
I don't live in Chicago, but live near Chicago, across Lake Michigan in NW Indiana. All our local news comes from Chicago and I'm pretty well versed in many of the Chicago neighborhoods. It's my opinion that this was a targeted assault on the Southside neighborhood where President and Mrs. Obama have a home, Mrs. Obama grew up, and the Obama Library is being built! If you wanted to target Latinos, then you would be raiding the Pilsen neighborhood. This was a staged media event complete with repelling ICE agents from hovering helicopters, armored vehicles, flash bangs, and doors broken in and apartments ransacked at 1:00 A.M. Men & women, including US citizens, young & old, plus crying, screaming, some naked, children were "perp walked" in handcuffs in their own neighborhood. What kinda country IS this and WHO are these people?!!! I don't know my own beloved country I've loved and cherished for 78 years!! When I was a child back in the 50's attending Catholic school, the nuns used to tell us about how we had to be strong in our faith because if the nazis came here, they would try to get us to deny our faith and ship us off in box cars away from our families. They were wrong, this didn't happen in the 50's, its happening now, only it's not nazis, it's our OWN COUNTRYMEN wanting us to deny the US Constitution and rule of law!!! Hell NO!!! 🤬
Thank you for speaking out. When I first heard the results of the 2016 election, the first thought that came through my mind was, "Do you have to have been married to a sociopath to recognize one?" (I was, a long time ago.) Now the sociopaths seem to be coming out of the woodwork to do Trumps evil because he gave them permission!
As a 76 year old veteran I didn’t serve my country to see this shit happen. I don’t know the answer on stopping this but it’s certainly time to write your representatives with a vengeance and say something like this.
“Good lord Jerry, when are you and your republican members going to come to your senses and stop the madness emanating from the White House. Everywhere you look there is chaos from the cities, the economy, the military killing people on the high seas, our farm communities to the implementation of project 2025, which we were told by the man himself that he knew nothing about it in his campaigning around the country. He lied to your face and our faces too. Our government is being dismantled piece by piece and to what end, revenge? And if that’s the goal then for what reason, can you answer that? I bet you can’t. I mean the list here is endless and we as citizens are sick and tired of this day in and day out madness. You are supposed to represent us and you’re not. This country is about to come apart at the seams and you and some of your republican constituents need to come together and STOP THIS MADNESS NOW. “
I sent this to Jerry Moran of Kansas yesterday, before I knew all of what transpired in Chicago. Now is the time for maximum pressure everywhere.
Thank you!
Everyone should restack this.
This is not getting the headlines in the media that it clearly deserves.
Our safety and security and rights as citizens are the core or our freedom.
And they’re blatantly being eroded:(
Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, and other fascists.

I guess I’m slow, but it seems pretty clear now that the rule of law is pretty meaningless if your leaders are immoral, criminal and inhumane.

We will see this same behavior increase as time goes on, and the moral revulsion we are experiencing will increase and result in action.
Unconscionable!

I urge everyone to read the post (https://bandyxlee.substack.com/p/the-serious-and-imminent-threat-of) by Dr. Bandy Lee, forensic and social psychiatrist and a world expert on violence. She warned the world but the world didn't listen.
