If you’re celebrating Halloween please spare a thought for all the kids in Chicago too scared to go trick or treating because ICE agents might tear gas or kidnap them.

This is what operation “Midway Blitz” has done and it’s disgusting.

Wishing you all a HAPPY HAMILLWEEN !!! 🎃 👻 😱 💀 🧙‍♀️ 🐈‍⬛

My costume this year is from one of my favorite Disney movies: Pinocchio.

At #ACR25, the session “Enhancing Shared Decision Making in Rheumatic Disease Management” brought together clinicians, researchers & patients to reflect on what it means to share decisions in rheumatology, not as an abstract concept, but as lived practice shaped by communication, trust & equity.

A partial list of what Bovino does not have to tell a federal judge happened today:
*An agent pushed a City Council member in Albany Park
*Agents deployed pepper spray in Albany Park & Evanston
*Agents were involved in a car crash in Evanston
*An agent pointed a gun at a woman in Evanston

Day 24 of Emmanuel Garcia being in federal custody.

He’s a 15 year old autistic boy who went missing 4 weeks ago. Houston PD found him, contacted ICE & his Mom is fighting to get him back

She’s not allowed to visit him.

They’re keeping a disabled kid from his family & the media is largely silent

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

There’s no such thing as the “genuinely disabled”

Disability is dynamic

Some disabilities are invisible. Some change day to day

You won’t always know a person is disabled unless they tell you

It’s a minority group you can join at any time, not a moral failing.

Here's a recording of my 10-minute presentation about addressing shared indoor air as an accessibility barrier in our learning environments.

As a disability advocate, I think it’s appalling how many people are fine letting disabled folks starve because they think “survival of the fittest” means we should die.

But here’s the thing… no one should be starving.

The richest country in the world can afford to feed everyone.

Did you ever think you’d see the day where no one knows the true state of the US economy because the gov. is shut down & refuses to collect data while weaponizing American hunger to skyrocket health care and keep the files on a sex trafficker just to appease billionaires?

House candidate Kat Abughazaleh calls her indictment for protesting a "political prosecution” “This case is a major push by the Trump administration to criminalize protest and punish anyone who speaks out against them.”

Trump’s DOJ unsealed an indictment against six protesters—including Democratic congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh, for allegedly impeding an ICE officer outside of a detention facility.

The move is a stunning continuation of Trump’s weaponization of judicial and police power to crush dissent.

I told him that I was born in Russia and was a writer. He showed me a list he’d written of his favourite desserts in the city. It was a sober hobby he’d started during the pandemic, going to restaurants by himself, sampling sweets. He made a lot of lists, he said, most of them food-related. I asked what other kinds he made. “Lists of lies liberal white women tell about Donald Trump,” he replied. Suddenly, his leg was shaking. He grabbed the edges of the table and raised his voice: “White, liberal women are a plague on our society.” He proceeded to drink 11 iced coffees.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️

Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you.

Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No.
