“Faith leaders were turned away from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Broadview on Christmas Eve morning after attempting to enter and pray with detainees.” The Broadview ICE facility is an evil place.

ProPublica Managing Editor @gingerthompson.bsky.social set out to write a David-vs.-Goliath narrative about Albany, Georgia’s response to COVID-19. But she realized there were more enduring questions and challenges facing Albany. They were about race and power.

Us in January 2017, sitting waiting for Hari Seldon to explain the Trump crisis and he starts talking about the great crisis of the Rubio Administration and everyone goes nuts.

They poisoned a whole community. The EPA helped cover it up. Latest documentary report from me is up @therealnews.com Please watch and share. It is a national crime what private corporations & our own government have done to our people. We can't let them get away with it youtu.be/P8ALDzd1qCM?...

Are these the files you boxed up from the Biden era probe into Epstein co-conspirators and shipped off to DC after you killed the investigation and fired the prosecutors? You’ve had these since January. I call BS.

Work for peace.

hello milwaukee and chicago

To all my mutuals and colleagues.

We’re thrilled to share some images of our coach house project with Here to Stay Community Land Trust! We are delighted to be a trusted partner, helping give this 1880s coach house new life as affordable duplex condos while preserving the details that make it unique.

I’ve enjoyed all Kamala Harris interviews and appearances these last few days but this is one of my favorites of all. Full of warmth, wisdom and joyful warrior vibes throughout. 🥹

I think one of the lessons that the huge success of congestion pricing in NYC is that charging a nominal upfront fee- even one far less the the levellized cost you are paying for elsewhere- is very good at cutting off the bottom 5% of bad behavior that makes things worse for everyone.

Thou art a great fool.

Henceforth this shall be known as the Shut the Fuck Up About Chicago decision. @harebrained.bsky.social

The Illinois Supreme Court is set to weigh in next year on whether serious Chicago Police Department misconduct cases must be heard publicly. John Catanzara says hearings would be more fair to officers if they happened behind closed doors. https://to.wttw.com/4qmLRwn

Not now, haunted Victorian shoes

Chicago debuted a program this year that lets police file felony gun charges without getting a prosecutor’s approval. Two of the police officers who have overseen many cases under this program have 59 misconduct complaints between them.

I hate Rahm Emanuel so much that the word hate doesn't actually suffice. I need a more specific word to capture the feelings I accumulated across years of fighting his austerity measures, and demanding justice for people who died because of him — and for Laquan McDonald, whose murder he covered up.

One of the more important stock-taking moments to watch a bootlegged news program censored in your country.

Hawai‘i is nearing a pivotal deadline on military land leases, exposing how the US has long abused Hawaiian land and opening a rare chance for Native communities to assert Indigenous sovereignty and demand the land’s return for public and ecological healing.

Bear with me here, but what if I told you the constitutional order is already effectively dead and we need to build something new because we are subsisting on a decayed body of the previous system? @hurricanexyz.bsky.social

“Mr. President, you critics say you’re naming all these things after yourself because you’re a narcissistic sociopath who was never loved as a child and has a black hole of empty neediness where his heart should be.” “… And?” “No question, I just wanted to be sure you heard that.”

All the wins that the likes of ald. Andre Vasquez are claiming as theirs, were actually the result of the coalition of progressive organizers like Breanna across the entire city against the consolidated opposition – One Future Illinois, Common Ground Collective, and the billionaires that fund them.

Some folks have flagged for me that Boasberg thrice cites the forthcoming HLR paper by me and Teddy Rave on habeas class actions. I wouldn't hold myself out as an expert on the underlying substantive law questions, but Boasberg gets the class action stuff right: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

In 2024, the Department of Justice found that the Trenton police “ignores officer misconduct in plain sight.” A city council member hopes to create a civilian oversight board there, but state law prevents these boards from having real investigatory powers.

I have the somewhat unpopular view that ambulances are a public service and shouldn't be fee funded. But even putting that aside ambulance debt is several kinds of bad debt. Selling it isn't going to earn all that much money but it will make a lot of people's lives worse.

This is something else. Lots of respect for @60minutes.bsky.social reporter Sharyn Alfonso for defending the integrity of her work. What a disgrace for 60 Minutes. The Trump effect destroys every institution it touches. GIFT LINK: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/21/b...
