Hey folks!
For the past few years Jim and Dave opened their home and hearts to two foster kids and were in the process of adopting them. Now they’re in a legal fight to try and keep their daughters.

This week's postcards are thank-yous going to the six Members of Congress who released the "Don't Give Up the Ship" video.
They have earned their courtesy title of "Honorable."

Complaint #1: businesses should not have a fb page instead of a website
Complaint #2: when I go to a business’s fb to try to figure out if they are even open I should not be inundated with the worst AI slop imaginable.

An absurd media narrative in runup to the election said Dems must choose between being "anti-Trump" and running on substance.
The lesson from this election is that anti-Trump politics *is* affordability politics, and affordability politics *is* anti-Trump politics:

I just organized some resources for whistles if anyone wants to DIY an event or join forces with my whistle event team.
We could use support with 3D printing whistles! I’ve got files, donation links, and a sign-up sheet. Also a link to the zines if you need it!

Good point.
A big thing I'm starting to think about is: What will ICE do in the winter in Chicago, when it's cold and fewer people are out on the streets for them to kidnap? How much harder might they try to enter businesses, schools, libraries, and homes? We need to be planning for them to shift gears.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.
The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”
It’s about control.
