It’s so funny (in a laughing to keep from crying way) that the men responsible for pushing Andrea out didn’t stay in their jobs for more than another year and a half. Far less for Anthony Driver, who left to go get 10k votes in the IL-7 primary basically right away

The Supreme Court ALSO gives Trump another pass on racism, declaring that his horrific and bigoted comments against Haitians are actually not evidence of racism and that the plaintiffs cannot show evidence of racial bias, essentially plugging their ears and letting Trump spew filth as policy.

Are we protecting our public parks, our amazing lakefront, an incredible resource held in the public trust for all of us to enjoy? Or are we destroying it by driving and parking multi-ton vehicles all over it? And creating a hostile and unwelcoming environment for everyone?

Millions of kids cut off from food support nationally. Hundreds of thousands of people cut off in Illinois - so far. Cook County State's Attorney Eileen O'Neill Burke is now filing maximum charges against people who steal food, including felonies where allowed.

for hosting this discussion of Eileen O'Neill Burke's battle against certificates of innocence and recent developments at the state level that could make those court orders more valuable and easier to get for some exonerated people. Listen here if you're interested!

"Evidence based policy" until the evidence is investing in CVI, mental health crisis response, running more paramedics / ambulances, opening more Level 1 trauma centers. Then it turns out they just want 10 trillion more cops (funded by a mix of ??? and also shuttering schools in Black neighborhoods)
