J.B. Pritzker and many others on the left keep insisting that Donald Trump and his “Gestapo” stormtroopers are suppressing protesters’ First Amendment rights when they arrest people who are “demonstrating” in front of ICE facilities.
This accusation is absurd because the First Amendment does not protect violence and actively interfering with law enforcement agents. Calling Antifa and other violent groups “protesters” is a whitewash. It’s like calling the perpetrators of Kristallnacht “protesters.”
Left-wing Chicago group teaches tactics for attacking ICE officers https://t.co/6A3c2Frev4

The Washington Examiner took a deep dive into one group involved in planning these “protests,” and what you see is not pretty.
A left-wing group in Chicago is teaching tactics on social media for attacking Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers as deportation operations intensify in the sanctuary city and the number of assaults on ICE employees has increased 1,000%.
The group’s public Facebook page, called “Chicago Listener,” is posting content encouraging violence against immigration authorities and sharing various ways to target ICE vehicles.
In an Oct. 3 post, which received over 600 reactions, Chicago Listener uploaded a picture demonstrating how to make homemade spikes using a cut-up garden hose and nails.
One of Chicago Listener’s 20,000 Facebook followers agreed it’s a “cheap good idea,” adding that an alternative method for fashioning spike strips would be to “bend two nails at a 90 degree angle, chop the flat, put em together n give em a quick spot weld.”
These are the people Governor Pritzker is referring to when he accuses ICE of suppressing the First Amendment rights of people. He goes on to threaten ICE agents with arrest for doing so.

As Democrats get instant amnesia about the existence of Antifa, they keep on insisting that the people committing violence are the good guys. They know exactly who these people are, what they are doing, and back their violent tactics 100%. That is why, even after ICE agents are ambushed, the rhetoric continues and amps up.
Chicago Listener also promoted a 9-liter spray tank sold by Spray Vandalz, a graffiti supply store. When a follower asked what the canister would be used for, Chicago Listener explained it’s to coat the windows of ICE vehicles with red paint from a faraway distance.
In the replies, others said spray painting ICE personnel’s windshields while they are trying to flee a volatile scene would “make the situation impossible for them to leave.”
“Just a thought chat,” Chicago Listener captioned the carousel of images.
On Oct. 9, Chicago Listener praised a video out of Aurora, Illinois, depicting a vandalized ICE vehicle with its back window broken in. In the clip, an ICE agent driving the damaged sedan tries to pull away, surrounded by an angry mob.
“Love to see it,” Chicago Listener reacted. “The people are tired, no more letting things fly.”
The tactics of violent protest have become very sophisticated, with training sessions, logistical supply plans, NGOs providing support, and even legal teams mobilized to support attacks on law enforcement. You have allies of the violent groups outside, acting as Sinn Féin, and the black bloc action groups playing the role of the IRA.
And the Democratic Party is playing a supporting role, funneling money to the allied groups, and giving cover in the media.
On Oct. 5, Chicago Listener shared a link to a YouTube tutorial titled “Comrades in Minneapolis — this video shows how to extinguish tear gas canisters quickly, safely.”
As seen in the 2020 video capturing an active riot, the upload’s description includes detailed instructions telling militants to pour baking soda, dish soap, or vegetable oil, three tablespoons each to 1 liter of water, into a large jug. Then pick up the canister emitting tear gas with protective gloves, the directions explain, drop it into the jug, and shake the container so that the chemical irritants are neutralized.
“The more you know,” Chicago Listener said.
Antifa is much more than an idea or ideology; it is highly organized, coordinated, and in many cases, contrary to what Pravda says, you can see what they are doing with a bit of digging. There are websites, Facebook groups, group trainings, NGOs, calls to action, propaganda outlets, and allies in the press and political world.
Is there a chance in hell that Pritzker and all the lefties claiming that there is no organization behind all this are unaware of the coordination?
Not a chance.
