HeadlineSep 22, 2025

In Chicago, 10 people were arrested in protests outside an ICE facility on Friday as federal immigration agents fired pepper balls and used tear gas on the crowd. Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh was thrown to the ground by ICE agents. People had rallied outside the facility to protest the Trump administration’s “Operation Midway Blitz,” which has arrested nearly 550 people in a sweeping crackdown on immigrants in the city.
