All 3 have been politically persecuted by the Trump admin for being brutalized at anti-ICE protests or telling their fellow National Guardsmen to disobey unlawful orders.

Once again, the Broadview ICE facility is not in Chicago.
It is in, as you might expect, Broadview, Illinois, which is thirteen (13) miles west of downtown Chicago.

NEW: Judge Gettleman just ordered ICE to improve "serious conditions" inside its Broadview facility in Chicago.
Yesterday, people testified in court that they were crammed into overcrowded and filthy cells for days, with little access to lawyers, and pressured into deportation.
