Susan- completely unendearing- Lee

Outside Chicago—

State police and sheriff's officers at Broadview detention center are out in riot gear.

A large Halloween demo is being prevented from doing a Jericho walk through the intersection.

Arrests of protesters ongoing. Troopers have also assaulted multiple reporters already.

OK, regardless of source, credit where due: That's a great headline.

Thanks, Josh.

Hey now @indivisible.org!

Same. National and local. Stopping all the text messages, too.

Great question. Really dumb positioning for a rent-heavy ward.

Thanks to all who participated. Quite good.

Very informative podcast on the Ward 8 race.

Just listened. You guys did a really good job. Sent a link to my son who will be voting in this election. But Dan- geez- it’s NIC-o-let. Accent on the first syllable. Otherwise you instantly telegraph “not from here” . Not that you are hiding that.

So heartening

Wow. For so many people, this is one of the key moments in "I hate the Mayor" lore and the way they were activated. His total about-face on homelessness is one of the clearest narratives on how Frey is driven by grievance. Incredible work by Taylor actually digging up the video after all these years

A reminder that the GOP could stop this man from literally tearing down our country at any time, and they are *choosing* not to

#NoKings Miami!

I didn't get a picture of the best sign I saw today, but I remember what it said:

Somewhere in America
A little Hispanic girl
Is hiding in an attic
And keeping a diary.

#NoKings

somewhere in portland, there's one person, or a small handful of people, who came up with the inflatable costume idea, and I feel like they deserve our immense respect for defining the obvious developing aesthetic of the contemporary battle against fascism

Hand drawn sign reads ACTION ABSORBS ANXIETY

One of the most TRUE signs I have ever seen at a march. Write this down and act upon it, friends.

#NoKings #Manhattan

It's 21 days since Rep. Grijalva won her election.

Mike Johnson could swear her in whenever he wanted.

Sorry, the Downtown Council is just a glorified PAC now.

There are still a lot of people out there who want some magnetic leader to rise and lead them, and don’t realize that the longer they wait to take initiative to get involved themselves, the longer this nightmare will continue.

If you want something done, do it!

The entire American economy is being held hostage to the whims of a guy who doesn’t understand how the economy works

This is the way. Frog costumes blasting Yakety Sax and the Imperial March at these losers.

Fascists want fear. They crumble when you point and laugh in their faces. Turn the protests into circuses! Dance! Bring tamales! They HATE IT.

Well, shit.

Study and learn, folks!

@govpritzker.illinois.gov , @jbpritzker.bsky.social, I thought that when they come for your people they came through you?

May her memory be a blessing.

Maybe it's time to attach strings to the subsidization of red states, like critical reasoning taught in all grades, more civics classes, and higher pay for better-credentialed teachers -- not out of largesse but to protect the rest of us.

Ward 8 for a New Mayor

We’ve seen the Mayoral candidates in debates and forums all year long, and we know one thing for sure: That the status quo isn’t working and we need change at the City. We also know that we have some truly excellent candidates to get us that change. To that end…

Romeo and Juliet! Love it!
