    What would help the US more, and for the same cost is an invasion of tradesmen building affordable homes.

      Yeah, imagine if the money we are throwing away on the ICEstapo were to be put to use in building affordable homes. Turbo-charge something like Habitat for Humanity…

      I’m positive I remember Churchill’s speech about fighting them on Main St with signs, and fighting them in the courthouses.

    Many Chicagoans will actually lose their shit if they try this. Chicago doesn’t take kindly to fascism. If they shoot one single US citizen it will be Trump tower that burns down.

      Have you heard about the Chicago police department? They literally operate their own black site.
