I just visited Naval Station Great Lakes that Trump is letting DHS use as they prepare to invade Chicago. 
The Navy cooperated and took the time to answer our questions.

Trump’s DHS locked the doors and fled.

That’s not how you act when you’re doing something legal.
Why stop there? Let’s rename all Depts after what Trump is inflicting on America. Dept of HHS -> Dept of Hepatitis and Human Suffering Dept of VA -> Dept of Veteran Abandonment Dept of Education -> Dept of Erasure of History Dept of Commerce -> Dept of Corruption Just a start.
JUST IN: President Trump will rename the Defense Department the Department of War, the White House confirmed
Republican cuts to Medicaid and SNAP won’t just hurt middle-class families—they’ll tank our economy. Soon, we’ll lose: ➡️ 1.2 million jobs ➡️ $12.2 billion for state and local budgets Plus, more expensive health care and food. All for tax cuts billionaires don't need.
Trump confirmed it. Chicago is next. And now, he plans to let his ICE agents operate out of Naval Station Great Lakes—where thousands of new recruits train every year. @durbin.senate.gov and I are demanding a meeting with the Secretary of the Navy. Our troops deserve answers.
Give me a break.   If Trump really cared about law and order, he’d reinstate the millions he cut from crime prevention programs—instead of threatening our cities with military deployments that exploit our troops and undermine readiness.
Unions are the backbone of our economy. We should be doing all we can to lift them up—not ending collective bargaining for 1 million American workers like Trump did. On Labor Day and always, Democrats will keep fighting for middle class families—not Mar-a-Lago billionaires.
SNAP was made permanent nearly 60 years ago today and it's helped millions of families put food on the table. But Republicans would rather see billionaires put more money in the bank—so they gutted SNAP to fund tax cuts they don’t need. They're betraying middle-class Americans.
A new level of cruel? Trump is illegally withholding child care grants for parents in college— Forcing them into an impossible choice: drop out or take on more debt. I’m demanding an investigation. These funds that Congress already approved must be released immediately.

It's been 70 years since Emmett Till was lynched by white supremacists. He was 14. After years of pushing for it, the Chicago church where Emmett's mother bravely held his open-casket wake is a national monument. May Emmett and Mamie Till-Mobley's stories never be forgotten.
No one should have to work nearly 8 extra months just to make as much as their white male counterparts do in a year—but that’s the reality Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islander women face. This NHPI Women’s Equal Pay Day, we renew the call: Equal work should always mean equal pay.
1.2 *million* Americans died from COVID before these vaccines were approved and we had widespread access to them. Reducing access to vaccines that are effective and have saved so many lives isn’t simply anti-science, it’s anti-American. And people could die because of it.
The FDA on Wednesday ended its broader authorization of Covid vaccines in the U.S., only clearing shots for people at higher risk of severe illness.
I'm absolutely heartbroken for the students, parents and loved ones affected by the horrific school shooting in Minneapolis. Not even one week into the school year, gun violence just changed their lives forever. We owe it to our kids to pass commonsense gun safety reforms.
BREAKING: Two children were killed and 17 people injured in a shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic school, police said. The shooter is also dead.
Trump's attempt to fire Lisa Cook won't: —distract Americans from the rising costs they see every day. —distract them from his continued refusal to release the Epstein Files. It will: —put everything from your life savings to your mortgage at risk. Oh, and it’s illegal.
Economic and financial analysts are warning that President Trump’s attempt to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook risks undermining the central bank’s independence — something that could ultimately put U.S. households’ finances at risk.
No matter how hard Trump tries to undo our hard-earned progress, this Women’s Equality Day—and every day—I’m honoring the trailblazers who fought to move us closer to equality.

They didn't take “no” for an answer—and neither will we.
Forcing the military, uninvited, into Chicago to intimidate Americans in their own communities does not make our nation stronger, it simply distracts the military from executing its core mission of keeping Americans safe from real adversaries who wish us harm.
Despite nearly 4 years of war and everything Trump has done to embolden brutal dictator Vladimir Putin, the resilience of the Ukrainian people continues to shine bright.   This Ukrainian Independence Day and always, we remain united with the brave people of Ukraine 🇺🇦
If it were about "law and order," he'd coordinate with local law enforcement. If it were about "health and safety," he'd reinstate the millions in gun violence prevention funding he cut. Trump is trying to distract you from the Epstein Files and rising prices. Don't let him.
Exclusive: The Pentagon has been planning a military deployment to Chicago as President Donald Trump says he wants to crack down on crime, homelessness and undocumented immigration, in a model that could later be used in other major cities.
