The federal food program helping more than 1 in 4 young children access fresh produce, milk, and formula will run out of funding next week.
Over 5 million children could lose food assistance — all thanks to the Trump-Republican shutdown.
The cruelty is endless.

Pushing for a cease fire so you can look good in a genocide you specifically enabled, at the same time as you’re assaulting your own democracy & waging war on your own cities, is never going to get you a prize for peace. If there’s a prize for hypocrisy and narcissism though, you’ve got a real shot.

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.
There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

As ICE terrorizes communities, remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies that will make bank off his budget bill.
And Stephen Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target immigrants.
