As Marimar Martinez, who survived an assassination attempt by federal agents in #Chicago, bravely testified today, DHS, Border Patrol, and ICE agents are rampaging through US cities, brutally targeting working people and activists who stand-up in solidarity against their violent repression.

I’ve officially landed on Mastodon from another platform where I was also just another username in the void. If you're in #Chicago or the surrounding cornfields, give this a boost so I can find the cool kids. I’m new, I’m witty, and I’m definitely not a bot. Probably. #ChiTown #ChicagoLife #Illinois #Midwest #Introduction #NewUser

@Tzipporah We have to go to Ghareeb Nawaz sometime, super inexpensive and amazing. (authentic Pakistani and Indian cuisine. The menu features diverse biryanis, curries, and vegetarian options, all prepared with fresh ingredients and traditional recipes.)

Chicago last night supporting the general strike #Chicago #Minneapolis #iceout

Abolish ICE is not enough. Stern words for Greg Bovino or Kristi Noem is not enough.

We need prosecutions and trials.

Anything short of this position fails to address the gravity of what people are feeling right now.

McKellen regaled the crowd with “X-Men” and “Lord of the Rings” anecdotes along with various Shakespearean monologues. At one point, he played both parts of the balcony scene in “Romeo and Juliet.”
