@ilattygeneral.bsky.social thoughts? Is your office ever going to answer press about anything?
Maybe the woman in Minnesota would still have been murdered if IL officials had sincerely tried to investigate its two prior immigration shootings
but at least they could say they tried to stop it

Let us in. Hold ICE accountable. Tear down the fence.
This is what we are demanding from the Broadview ICE facility, and nothing less.
Our leaders can decide whether they stand with the people or with ICE. There is no middle ground.

Why did @govpritzker.illinois.gov send out Illinois police to limit protests at Broadview? Why is a progressive governor shielding illegal ICE activity from peaceful protesters? Why are our state tax dollars devoted to Trump’s agenda?

State police assisted ICE in the performative brutalization and arrest of protesters today. @govpritzker.illinois.gov must answer for this.
A protester tackled and arrested by state police for trying to block an ICE vehicle.

@timmidyett.bsky.social I wanted to tell you how much I loved the show last night. It was a version of Silkworm that managed to be both nostalgic and new to me.
I got chills once, teared up twice, and smiled and laughed a lot.

I had the opportunity to meet some of the organizers of this campaign yesterday at an immigrants rights rally yesterday and wanted to share this in case anyone else would like to send a letter.
