Some of us grew up with the concept of mishpacha; others, sadly, did not

Of all the many things I cannot stand about their movement, the anti-intellectualism is #1. They know how educated people vote, and they can’t stand it… so their solution is to do away with education. They would rather condemn our future to ruin than give up the power they currently hold

I understand the white house has a Bluesky account now. What do we think the algorithms would do if we all blocked it en masse? I’ll go first.

These two faith traditions do not need to be antithetical to each other. But when we try to mash them up, we make them so

Today we honor and celebrate the history and contributions of indigenous people everywhere.

Happy Indigenous People's Day!

Let’s be careful. Because their next target very well could be Jewish families.

Thank you for your service.

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you — no matter where you are on your journey.

I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.
