We know that what Trump is doing is not new. The violence and terror tactics being inflicted by ICE on our communities have been inflicted by CPD on the Black community in Chicago for decades.

As Trump continues to terrorize Immigrant communities and all oppressed nationalities with racist and illegal ICE raids, we know we must fight back even stronger.

He still has not received adequate treatment for his injuries and has been denied a permit to allow his hands to be cuffed in front instead of behind his back, even though having his hands cuffed behind his back leads to severe pain from the shoulder injury.

Use the script on slide two to call in and build the pressure on Pritzker to do what’s right, and comment on this post when you’ve called. Justice delayed is justice denied! If Pritkzer is serious about being the progressive he likes to present himself as, he needs to get to work!

They’re capitulating by focusing their response to this assassination by condemning political violence as a general concept, divorced from the reality that we presently face, which is one of unchecked power for the ultra-right.

The Chicago Alliance @caarprnow.bsky.social · 19/09/2025
It is clear that the corporate media, the Democrats, and unfortunately some forces in the progressive people’s movement are capitulating instead of fighting back.

The Chicago Alliance @caarprnow.bsky.social · 19/09/2025
But the point I want to make is about their use of the same tactics and strategies for creating a moral and political climate conducive to political terrorism.
