we're in the kind of weather the heat in my building can't quite figure out so it's either 68 or 86 in my apartment and nothing in between (barring venting my windows of course)

🚨🇮🇹 Action Alert!

Chicago Park District is soliciting public input about which Italian should be commemorated with a new statue in Arrigo Park.

It appears they took my suggestion seriously. Enrico Fermi is a candidate!

Fill out this survey!!!

Kat Abughazaleh doesn't just influence the Overton Window; when she speaks she sits in the driver's seat of the Overton Window. She has shaped this race and shows the dedication & awareness to shape the national conversation. We're all done with the chickenshits; Kat meets the moment.
ICE does not need more training. They’re doing exactly what they’re trained to do.

Democrats cannot vote for a single cent to ICE.

They are grabbing and bursting testicles.

That’s sexual assault.

We already know women detainees have been raped, assaulted and in some cases sterilized.

This is sick stuff. They want to inflict maximum pain.

They’re abusers drunk on power.

Alex Pretti… This is who Trump’s secret police killed today in Minnesota. He was a VA nurse.

Every politician running for office needs to say “ICE as an organization needs to be abolished and dismantle, and when I’m elected, the folks who terrorized our cities will be prosecuted.”

Not “trump’s ice”, not “defund ice”, not “more training”.

Then why does @govpritzker.illinois.gov keep using the Illinois State Police to assist in Bovino's operations?

Now feels like a good time to remind everyone that evidence suggests that playing some Tetris — and probably lots of other colorful games, but definitely Tetris — is helpful for a mind that is processing traumatic events. You need to take care of your mind to be effective. We need all of us.

It was Gov. Pritzker’s cops brutalizing protesters on behalf of ICE just this summer.

Unless JB actually does anything to protect us, he is complicit.
Masked federal agents in Minnesota just shot and killed another person.

We must put a stop to Trump’s ICE. Now.

Stop the funding, stop the occupations, stop the killings.

Adult and three kids taken by ICE (or maybe CBP?) in Chicago today near 64th & Champlain per Kenwood/Hyde Park/Woodlawn Rapid Response.

Focus is rightly on Minneapolis *and* it's still happening here.

Shout out to @mostlybree.kitrocha.com and @courtneymilan.com and @hankscorpio.bsky.social and @dansinker.com and all the incredible folks printing whistles and spreading the word.
Chicagoans send 150,000 whistles to cities besieged by federal immigration agents
On Friday, Emily Hilleren and Lauren Vega ferried a care package containing whistles and instructional zines to Minneapolis, the focus of the latest federal immigration action.

What is up with so many bus stops in Chicago having benches on the opposite side of the intersection than them, were all these bus stops moved in the past with the benches just left there or is it some cruel coincidence?

If MBJ ended Chicago’s Century of Humiliation early he would be written down as as a successful mayor despite his many steppings on rakes.
