Chaos erupted in a Chicago neighbourhood after ICE agents fired tear gas on a residential street during an immigration raid, moments before the start of a children’s Halloween parade. Footage shows residents in Old Irving Park confronting federal agents who had several suspects pinned to the ground on Saturday (October 25), as tear gas enveloped the area. Tensions have been high in Chicago as the Trump administration ramps up his anti-immigration agenda. Last week two high school students were detained after clashes between protestors and ICE officials.
More will certainly want to buy it.
It is also in the regime’s interest for soldiers to be dissatisfied with ramen noodles instead of wages, because ICE has a budget that corresponds to the military spending of medium-sized countries now: Either soldiers with a fitting fascist mindset can be poached, and/or the military can be weakened as a potential opponent in the establishment of a dictatorship (no pay = layoffs, and these will mainly be people who have a problem with an autocratic America under an orange dictator).
I’m not from the US, but it all looks pretty grim to me.
