Federal agents pepper-sprayed a baby girl in Little Village this weekend. There's no limit to what these thugs will do.

To make Chicago safe again, we need ICE and CBP to get the hell out of our city.

Not everything in the world is going terribly. We are currently living a golden age of adult contemporary hip hop.

Every Dodger should go, with their kids, and politely call out Drumpf to his face.

Something like, "Mr. Trump, your immigration actions have directly created violence and chaos in our beautiful, inclusive city. We only accepted your invitation because we want you to hear it directly from us."

Come on, NYT. This headline asserts as fact that the people killed were in drug cartels but the article itself notes in first paragraph that there is no •evidence• this is the case. Publish a correction!!

The Dodgers should most definitely refuse the invitation to the White House.
If the Dodgers go to he White House, they will be slapping every LA citizen in the face and telling them we don’t care about you, but keep giving u your money
The Dodgers have a responsibility to their fans and their city

If the Dodgers go to the White House this time I will never support them again. That’s it. No more games, no more merch, no more #GoDodgers.

I was hoping the Jays would refuse the White House visit, but I'll settle for this.

When I run errands these days, I make sure I have my keys, my phone and my whistle. I wear the whistle in case I spot Homeland Security thugs terrorizing people and need to alert my neighbors. Lots of people are wearing them.
That’s how Trump has changed life in my hometown, Evanston, IL.
