1/2 On Wednesday in Chicago, ICE lured people in the supervision program to "check-ins"—then detained them on the spot. “Gestapo-style abductions,” said Ald. Byron Sigcho-Lopez. These are ambushes, not check-ins. Honor to the courageous community members who rose up and tried to stop it.

Masked ICE thugs terrorized Chicago yesterday. They lied to immigrants waiting for their court hearing by summoning them for “surprise check-ins” and then assaulted protesters and elected officials. THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

This is entrapment—and Dems must stand up against it. Weds, June 4: Masked ICE operation in Chicago’s South Loop led to the detention of at least 10 immigrants. They were sent text messages to report for check-ins—then ambushed and taken into custody on arrival. A protest broke out in response.

This ruling opens the door to more lawsuits. Many will be frivolous. Many will be strategic, filed by anti-DEI activists trying to erode protections for LGBTQ folks, Black and Brown workers, or anyone outside the “default” identity. That’s not justice, it's a setback for equity. #FuckThisShit

Good for Gov. Walz, who refuses to throw marginalized children under the bus because it's a "difficult" topic. As a high school teacher and football coach, Coach Walz was the faculty sponsor for Mankato High School's Gay-Straught Alliance student club. Thank you Coach for this great example!
