Trump bragged about barging into the changing rooms of 14-year-old girls, and the girls confirm he did it.

A sign reads: "ICE/CBP Agents DO NOT have consent to enter this business/restaurant unless they have a valid judicial warrant. Staff are not authorized to consent access to this business/restaurant. Stop."
A sign for the Red Vault fetish/toy store promotes a 20% off sale and free whistles for ICE watchers.
While out on our Halloween evening ICE patrol, we noticed that Red Vault, an adult fashion/fetish/toy store, had a mannequin with an orange whistle around its neck in the store's front window. They also had a sign declaring ICE was not welcome and were giving away free whistles. I love this city.

Evanston is a predominantly white dominated middle and upper-class suburb of Chicago... that Evanston
A Democratic Party which wants to be taken seriously again must use its power (if they regain it) to continue the atonement work. No more insurrectionists in the judiciary, or in the legislative branchβever. The power of the executive *must* be significantly curtailed.

Loan forgiveness, walking a picket line with union members, etc should perhaps be seen as atonement.

Far too few unfortunately included Biden himself. Whether he passed the baton to his VP with 2 years left instead of 100 days, or a primary chose his successor, perhaps we arenβt in the place we currently find ourselves.
