* Border Patrol is back…

* Tribune…

The agents also targeted a Teamsters picket line near Midway International Airport Tuesday morning, according to a representative for the union.

Nico Coronado, an attorney for Teamsters Local 705, said Border Patrol agents showed up to the picket line at 5507 S. Archer Ave. and asked workers — most of whom are Latino, and many of whom are immigrants — for identification. Coronado said he did not believe any workers were detained.

The Teamsters struck another plant owned by that company this year, partly because of dangerous working conditions, but also because the owners wouldn’t agree to preventing immigration authorities from entering the private business without a judicial warrant.

* Gov. Pritzker today…

o some of you may or may not have heard that the Customs and Border Patrol and its leader, Gregory Bovino, are back in Chicago as of this morning. We were not given any notice by them, and they seem to already be deploying, again with masks and unmarked cars and SUVs into neighborhoods. They call it enforcement. We call it harassment, but we don’t know how long they’ll stay. It appears that they’re here for at least a couple of days, if not longer. So I encourage everyone who can hear me to do as you have, because frankly, I’m very proud of the way that Illinoisans have reacted to CBP and ICE and that’s in pulling out your whistles and your phones, video, everything posted online.

We have an Illinois Accountability Commission that is now taking testimony. Has a hearing on Thursday. I invite Gregory Bovino to testify at the Illinois Accountability Commission. He has some questions that he needs to answer for and we’ll move forward as we need to to protect the people of Illinois.

From the Illinois Accountability Commission’s website…

The purpose of the Commission, housed within the Illinois Department of Human Rights (IDHR), is to create a public record of the conduct of federal agents during “Operation Midway Blitz” and the Trump Administration’s military-style operations throughout the Chicagoland area. Additionally, the Commission will examine the impact of that conduct on individuals and communities and consider policy recommendations to prevent future harm in Illinois.
