Summary
It's Fun Day Monday on the Majority Report.
On today's show:
ICE, CBP and other federal agencies continue their assault on Chicago as they recklessly unleash CS gas in front of an elementary school in a busy neighborhood resulting in the hospitalization of at least two children.
ICE is gassing everyone in Chicago including the local police officers.
Dr. Michale Mann, Climatologist, Geophysicist, Director of Center for Science, Sustainability & the Media at University of Pennsylvania, joins the program to discuss his new book - Science Under Siege: How to Fight the Five Most Powerful Forces That Threaten our World co-authored with Dr. Peter Hotez.
In the Fun Half:
More coverage of ICE atrocities as they arrest people with no warrant or reason, detain the lawyers that are speaking on behalf of terrorized immigrants and mace young girls at point blank in the face.
The only thing that seems to get ICE officers to back off is a person in an inflatable frog suit casting spell.
Van Jones, Thomas Friedman and Bill Maher share a good laugh at Van's "dead Gaza baby" joke.
Greta Thuneberg addresses the media in Greece after being released by the IDF.
All that and more
