You aren’t owed my attention just because you want it.
We are having wine and tater tots for dinner but only because my son doesn’t like peas.

Love seeing Charlotte out there protesting, blowing whistles, building community, getting things done.

As seen in Chicago on several places on my morning run.

I got federal charged for dancing across the street from ICE in my neighborhood on Indigenous People's Day. Here is the feds evidence photo they are using against me in court.
I really really need a good lawyer but I cant afford one.

The kids are alright. #FreeCharlotte
Incredible video from Reddit (too large to upload the screencap). CBP agents attempt to detain a flower vendor and end up getting chased into a vacant lot by a crowd of teenagers. What a bunch of impotent sad sacks.

Charlotte friends, get yourself one of these and start connecting with your neighbors.

Bold move for six Democrats-none from my State - to ask for money today.

Sorry we can’t donate to your Senate Campaign, our heath insurance just went up 1000%.

Hey @durbin.senate.gov - this is what you voted for - I hope you hear these Americans voices in your head as you try to sleep for the rest of your days.

I've been reposting everyone replying to this post with their own ACA (and sometimes employer!) price hikes. Feel free to add yours. There is some comfort in knowing you aren't alone and knowing we'll all be voting on this issue in a year.

Chuck Schumer should be chucked out. #chuckchuck
My ACA current plan is going from $385/mo to $821/mo.

You can leave messages for @durbin.senate.gov at (312) 353-4952 - the Chicago office.

At least the Supreme Court told Kim Davis to go eat a dick. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I’d like to point out that Senator Durbin’s DC office won’t even let you leave a message - but his Chicago Office will - 312-353-4952 - if you live in Illinois, let your voice be heard.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Preschool kids in Chicago are showing more grit and resolve in the face of the Trump Administration’s war on the people than grown ass men in the Senate.

@durbin.senate.gov vote fucking no! Do not allow the President and GOP to gut the ACA - make them explain their position to the people - who have spoken - this is bullshit. You are retiring - you can do the right thing!!!

Ken Griffin apparently moved from Chicago to Palm Beach?!? Regular Chicagoans did not notice.

How many times does the electorate of New York need to kick Andrew Cuomo in the dick before he fucks off to Florida already?

Hey, @jaketapper.bsky.social - maybe there’s a book in this for you!

Recording images, audio, and video of law enforcement in public is a 1A right well established in the courts. DHS officers assaulting and detaining people then releasing them w/o charges is still contrary to law. www.aclum.org/en/know-your...

It feels like Law Enforcement is just full on 100% looking for people to beat the shit out of and tear gas.

Still.

From an Evanston resident filming an arrest at Oakton/Asbury ~an hour ago:

"He was being very violent with her, I said ‘You got to stop that,’ and he said, ‘Step back or I’ll fucking shoot you.‘ I step back, and then I continue to record, at which point he turned around and pointed a gun at me.”
