The Trump administration arrested 106 protesters this fall, calling them “rioters” and saying the National Guard was needed to protect the immigration agents. But only 9 cases still have a pending felony charge. Most are falling apart in court. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/12/30/c...

Rioters? Agitators? Immigration agents’ claims against US citizens mostly fall apart in court.
Time and again, Donald Trump’s immigration agents claimed horrific crimes at the hands of protesters in Chicago. Those allegations of abuse did not withstand the scrutiny of judicial review.

Fun read from @taliasoglin.bsky.social in which she asks well-known Chicagoans for gift-giving tips. But I'm concerned Maria Pappas isn't be reading the room correctly when she says Athens hotel workers "go crazy" for her Glamour Shots-inspired calendars. www.chicagotribune.com/2024/12/05/i...
