I was against public funding when Ricketts needed to rehab Wrigley and surrounding areas. I am against public funding for the Bears and/or White Sox - why are we even discussing handouts for billionaires?

Requiring temporary visitors to surrender five years of social media to the U.S. sends the message that the American commitment to free speech is pretense. This simply is not the behavior of a country confident in its freedoms. It's a threat to free speech around the world and must be opposed.

Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan
The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don't require visas to enter.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

He’s sending Texans to protect ICE so they can arrest the immigrants that the Texas governor sent to Chicago in busloads. This entire situation has been created by Trump and the GOP.

The precise moment when and where in recent weeks America crossed that invisible line from democracy into authoritarianism can and will be debated by future historians, but it’s clear that the line itself has been crossed.

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

Introducing COSMO, a 5 month old mixed breed puppy I was lucky enough to pick up from PAWS Chicago earlier this week. ❤️❤️ I’ve been talking about having a dog for ages and I couldn’t be happier. He’s a handful but settling in nicely and already loving coming to work with me.

So just to recap, the Transportation Secretary is scared shitless of public transport. The Education Secretary is being sued for enabling child sex abuse. The Health Secretary is bringing back measles. And the Defense Secretary is texting classified war plans to the editor in chief of the Atlantic

just took a long flight and when the plane landed people started to clap but instead of silently mocking them like i normally do, i clapped with them. the chaos of this administration is making us lose sight of who we are and what we believe.

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths
