People will take you down. The people will take you down. Don't attack you racist power. The people in Chicago are rising up and peacefully protesting against the Trump regime's threatened invasion of their city by the United States military. We saw protests just like the one I showed at the beginning of the video all week as Chicago saying no to a military occupation of their great city and Illinois Governor J.B. pritzker has been standing up against the Trump regime. The Trump regime is launching something called Operation Midway Blitz. They give it a name like they're going to war because they are going to war this time with American cities That's what the Trump regime is doing. As Donald Trump looks weaker than ever physically, externally, emotionally. I mean, you saw him this week, right, with the face drooping at that 911 ceremony at the Pentagon. Whether that was bell palsy or stroke like symptoms or whether it was something related to what may be those cardiovascular symptoms or his hand decomposing before our eyes with those massive ankles of his at this point, which the White House is, it just goes, he shakes a lot of hands. I'm not a medical expert, but there are a lot of medical experts who have opined that this could be serious cardiovascular and, or kidney and, or liver and, or mini strokes or something. But it's clearly happening before our eyes. Former President Joe Biden looks like an Olympian athlete compared to Donald Trump. But I digress, going back to Donald Trump trying to act like a tough guy while he physically decomposes and deteriorates before our eyes. Donald, Donald Trump launching that Operation Midway blitz in Chicago. And then yesterday we learned that ICE agents fatally shot a man after a traffic stop in Franklin park in Chicago as part of their Operation Midway Blitz. According to ice, the man kept on driving when they tried to access his vehicle. And then an ICE agent said they feared for their life so they had to shoot and kill this individual. That's what they're saying, they feared for their life. When you're wearing masks and you try to kidnap people, people are to be scared. And you may get reactions that you may not want because you're kidnapping and disappearing humans off the street. It should also be noted, due to some great work by citizen journalists, we're seeing more and more of the ICE agents out there on the streets wearing Trump pins. Pins with Donald Trump's face on it. Now, last week I reported an incident where an individual identified a Trump pin. And now we're seeing it more and more. I'm not sure if this is the required dress code, if they are being pressured or if this is what they're told to do or they're showing while they're getting these signing bonuses to join ICE and disappear human beings or this is what they've fantasized their whole life. Joining ICE to destroy human beings lives. Some of these despicable people. Well, take a look right here at an ICE facility in Broadville, Illinois. This was captured by the people's fabric. Great work to them for capturing this. You had a protester playing a little bit of Rage against the Machine at this detention center at this facility in Broadview, Illinois. And you'll see some of the ICE agents come out. This person had a lawful ability to stand where they were standing. And then ICE starts screaming and threatening. The person stands their ground. Look carefully at the office, at the ICE agent. You'll see he's wearing a Trump pin, a pin of Trump's face. And here, watch this. Get off the property. Stay on the sidewalk now. Have a nice day. Yeah, you too. Zoom in. Do you see Trump's face right there? Again, this violates the Hatch Act. Every law imaginable, in my opinion, but that's what Trump's doing. He wants to have his personal army to make himself look like a tough guy. Now, I hate this headline by cnn, but I'll describe what's really happening. They go. Trump shelves. Chicago crackdown plans for now as advisors warn of legal headaches. Trump shelved his plans to target Chicago as the next city for his domestic crime push after advisors warned him that sending in troops could create legal headaches they want to avoid. Sources familiar with the matter told cnn. But you're still using Donald Trump's language. Crackdown. No military invasion to the crime push. Chicago has lowered their crime. If you want to do a crime push, though, I, I think governors would welcome crime pushes. You know what you would do? You would bring more FBI agents to join task forces. You'd invest in law enforcement. Governors welcome that. I spoke to Governor Newsom, I've spoke to Governor Pritzker, I spoke to Governor Moore. I spoke to lots of governors. They would, from what they've told me, as I understand it on the shows that you've seen, if you want to bring more FBI agents and do actual law enforcement, invest in local and state police forces, all for it. But people in the United States don't want the military, who's not trained in civilian policing, to rove the streets with, with their military weapons like in dictatorships. That's just not what we have in the United States. But sure, invest more money in law enforcement. That's not what Trump's doing. He wants to bring Marines and National Guard to march through cities like a dictator. Now, I want to pivot just for a moment, a little bit more than a moment. And I want to talk about what else is going on here. Donald Trump destroying the economy this week, destroying the American dream. His trade war against the world has been an utter disaster. Give a hat tip to Axios right here. They did a good interview with Trump's Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick. And the Axios reporter asked Lutnick, Great questioning here, by the way. Inflation's the highest since 2021. Manufacturing activity has shrunk. Unemployed workers exceed job openings. If this was happening when Biden was in office, you'd be on Fox every day complaining. So Howard Lutnick, so Trump regime, what's your response? And Howard Lutnick goes, well, it's not our economy until 2026. That's when it becomes the Trump economy. It's not the economy until 20. And then the Axios guy goes, what do you, it doesn't work that way. And by the way, Lutnick said when there was a decent GDP number a few weeks back or I mean a month or two back, Lutnick's like, now it's the Trump Academy and now it's not the Trump economy. The guy's a two bit snake oil salesman is what he is. Here, watch this clip. Inflation in August ticking up to 4.3%, the highest since 21. Manufacturing activity shrank in August, six months running. Unemployed workers exceeding job openings. If Biden had numbers like that, you'd be on Fox saying, what's going on? So the economy that Donald Trump owns.
