Anthony Bourdain not only had a love affair with Chicago, but it was also his ideal Utopia.

And so it is for many of us as well.

RIP Chef.

Even Fox News knows the DOD is a disaster under Pete Hegseth. Hegseth's forcing the retirement of the US Army Chief of Staff Randy George is looked upon with disgust. Since George had been nominated by Biden, the move was likely due to Trump's jealousy.

Massive corruption exposed on ABC News. A UAE official bought a 500 million dollar secret stake in a Trump company right before getting access to guarded US AI chips. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche desperately tries to deflect. The White House is for sale.

🚨 DISTURBING VIDEO

In Minnesota, ICE agents handcuffed a pregnant woman, forced her onto her stomach, and pressed their knees and body weight into her while a crowd screamed that she was pregnant.

She wasn’t resisting. She wasn’t a threat.

The agents ignored the pleas, aimed pepper spray at bystanders, and only stopped after the crowd erupted.

Then they pepper-sprayed the area anyway and dragged the pregnant woman while she was still restrained.

When a dude with an accordion rolls up on a lawnmower, you know it’s about to get real.

ICE shoots pepper spray at peaceful observer—from inside the safety of their car.

Jump out of car to spray her again from even closer point blank range—chasing her from behind as she runs away in pain.

Agents get in their car to leave—then get back out to spray her a THIRD time until the canister is literally emptied.

"I lost my voice. I was blind for about 30 minutes," said witness.

"The pepper spray they used was so strong that it blinded me for 30 minutes, actually."

The incident occurred near the Riverside Plaza housing complex in Minneapolis, Minnesota. #DemsUnited

🚨FALSE!!! Karoline Leavitt says Trump convinced China to buy soybeans and they didn’t when Biden was president:

FACT: They bought 18+ MILLION TONS of soybeans in 2023 and 2024 under Biden. Under Trump, they’ve barely bought TWO TONS!

TURN HER MIC OFF!

WATCH: An ICE agent pushes away a home security camera as she approaches a house.

This is what a police state looks like.

A few months ago Emiliano’s in Philadelphia was raided & most of the people were released! Ice destroyed this restaurant after looting,pillaging it & catching it on fire.Then they’re seen pulling their vehicles up to the back door & taking everything including food,machinery etc!

[Rep. Dave Min @CongressMin]

Andrea Velez, a citizen of the USA, was on her way to work when she was brutally beaten and arrested by ICE agents. There have been ZERO consequences for this assault. The lawlessness must end.

[LongTime🤓FirstTime👨‍💻 @LongTimeHistory]

ICE pepper spray disabled woman using a cane—directly at her face from point blank range.

Agents then shove her down hard to the ground—after she was already incapacitated and stumbling backwards.

This is second incident of excessive force in St. Paul, Minnesota this past week.

A statement released by ICE claims agents were conducting a targeted arrest—and deployed chemical irritants against the woman for officer safety.

The most recent event took place on Tuesday in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood on the east side of St. Paul, Minnesota. #DemsUnited

[Molly Ploofkins @Mollyploofkins]

Federal agents and city police in St. Paul, Minnesota, clashed with a crowd Tuesday afternoon in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood, where law enforcement deployed chemical irritants onto the gathering protesters.

“ICE is just targeting brown people who have an accent, snatching people out of their cars”

Racial profiling is all they do

[Omar Jimenez @OmarJimenez]

She was accused of ramming a Border Patrol vehicle in Chicago before an agent shot her and Homeland Security branded her a domestic terrorist.

Now, a judge has dismissed the charges against her and Marimar Martinez tells me, "I'm a survivor."

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨 BREAKING: The Chicago woman shot five times by Trump’s border patrol and then charged as a “terrorist” just had all charges dropped.

Agents claimed she pulled a gun and rammed them.

The video showed they hit her first and her gun never left the holster.

🫢 The state manufactured a threat, shot an innocent woman, and lied about it.

[LongTime🤓FirstTime👨‍💻 @LongTimeHistory]

ICE break down bedroom door—point guns at mother & 4 U.S. citizen children.

Agents drag mother by her hair & aim rifle at 13-year-old daughter—yell "Put your hands up, stupid!"

Didn't show any ID or warrant before breaking in—were looking for someone else, a cousin who hadn't lived there for 2 years.

Agents questioned the family for an hour—threatening to involve child services.

Children have not felt safe to return home or go to school—afraid to leave their parents' sides.

The incident occurred in an East Elmhurst apartment in Queens, New York. #DemsUnited
