Under the order, private businesses can choose to display signage indicating that ICE cannot enter without a warrant—thereby designating “their property as part of a city-wide network of community spaces that stand together in affirming the safety, dignity, and belonging of all of our residents,” the mayor said.

Johnson touted the order for building “a broad civic shield that limits the reach of harmful enforcement practices. It strengthens neighborhood solidarity and it reaffirms Chicago’s role as a welcoming city.”

    what happened to all the pre Rand Paul libertarians

    I was one of them. I was in deep. I’ve met Ron Paul multiple times. I know some of his former staffers.

    I will tell you what happened:

    • They were right that in fact the Government is spying on everyone, and bald-face lied about it (Clapper)
    • They then assumed that the Government can only lie, and that everything official is by definition untrue
    • A supermajority of them are religious faithful. They can be super educated but they still believe in Bronze-Age fairy stories and “personal Truth”
    • … which made them easy targets for Russian disinfo

    It’s so banal. But it’s the truth. I know because I watched my former friends turn into people who intentionally spread COVID, to “show up the hoax”
