Five years ago, we all applauded nurses, public health, and health care workers every evening for saving lives.

Today, the federal government does not consider these workers professional.

This says everything about the state of US health care.

Most days I wake up to new news about the abuse or misue of Flock ALPR cameras in the US, or news about Flock being caught lying about the same. Flock is the worst of the worst surveillance tech right now, and we should get it out of San Diego right away
Opinion: Mayor hypes license plate readers, doesn’t mention abuses
The risks and dangers of Flock are now verified and increasingly well-known.

I’m the first congressional candidate to be indicted under the second Trump administration.

But if things keep going the way they are, I won’t be the last.

That’s why I need to fight these charges with everything we’ve got. Help us do that here: katforillinois.com/legal

Just got a press release from ICE saying that an officer shot and killed someone in Chicago. It says that the officer fired after getting dragged by a car. (fwiw, we've seen Border Patrol lie about this in the past in use of force cases, so I'm waiting to see video/witness statements)
