I stand with County Executive Calvin Ball as he signs emergency legislation today prohibiting privately owned buildings from being used as ICE detention centers.

Really good explainer video from Vox on why expanding the House - and adding an option for multi-member districts with ranked choice voting - would make our democracy more democratic. (And my bill to do that.) youtu.be/KhQGHY44XPM?...

@jordanshiveley.bsky.social just wanted to let you know your words were the first thing my daughter saw after her mom’s face. Their sentiment was shared by a majority of those present.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Killed for interposing himself when an ICE agent pushed a woman to the ground like a fucking 12-year-old and maintained calm while that thug threw a tantrum and pepper sprayed him in the face.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

They did it again.
This is the video.
Please be warned: the video is graphic. It shows ICE agents wrestling a man to the ground, beating him, and then shooting him several times.

Within 60 minutes of the shooting, the Trump administration called her a domestic terrorist.
Renee Nicole Good came to Minneapolis almost a year ago looking for a place that she, her wife and 6-year-old son could feel comfortable.
Now, her community on the south side of the city is grieving.

Renee Good, shot by ICE, came to Minneapolis for ‘community’
Renee Nicole Good was a devoted mother and artist before she was fatally shot, becoming the flash point of anger against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

The iPhone 16 allows you to customize the “action button” so you have control over what gets accidentally activated while it’s sitting in your pocket. I started with randomly cycling through ring and silent mode, but I’m really excited about the possibility of the flashlight draining my battery.

Data over dogma!
it has been truly amazing to see certain people who would normally acknowledge things like this contort their positions in crazy ways just to avoid admitting something that might hurt their ability to win contracts (campaign messages don't matter as much as conditions and wouldn't have saved Harris)
Short thread. Can't emphasize this point enough. This plus the worldwide context (that most incumbent parties did even worse. Also my guess is always that the swing to GOP and other out-parties was part economy and part/most post-pandemic general unhappiness, not just economy).

The obvious joke here is: “This ad misleadingly represents an ICE officer getting custody of his kids after the divorce.”

I think all those “Illinois 8th congressional district” searches are exclusively from me copy-pasting Raja Krishnamoorthi’s name. Otherwise this is an accurate summation of my 2025 hyperfixations.
