Christopher Lee was so amazing. On top of everything he achieved as an actor, he served with distinction in World War II and even helped track down fugitive Nazis after that. And, as this video shows, he was a great friend.

I feel like a disabled autistic 15 year old child going missing and ending up with ICE/HHS should be far bigger news.

Especially considering he’s been located yet NOT returned to his mother.

This is kidnapping.

Yet the combination of racism & ableism means it gets ignored.

Just spent an hour walking the neighborhood with a whistle; many others out doing the same for school drop off time. I’m proud to help but deeply embarrassed that we have to do this.

“On any given week, the administrator of CMS could speak for a few minutes before a shirtless Russell Brand calls in from what appears to be a bathtub, or a former member of The Pussycat Dolls argues that the COVID-19 vaccine destroyed her ability to dance.”

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

This is on the street OUTSIDE of the Ice building, it's city property. The agent should be charged with assault.

There's batshit, there's power mad,and then there's whatever level of deranged this woman is currently operating at

This psycho really just went on camera and said that you have to be a US citizen to attend the Super Bowl or she'll arrest you

Christ.

Am I the only one weirded out by the upper 80° heat in October??? I'm ready to put on a sweater.

Nutrition Program for Mothers and Infants May Run Out of Money Within Weeks Nearly 41 percent of U.S.-born infants participate in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, which may not have enough funding for an extended government shutdown.

If the government remains shut down, a program that feeds more than six million low-income mothers and their children is likely to run out of funding within the next two weeks, advocates and government officials say.

another instance where “fuck you, make me” is the optimal reply

This is what fascist scholars mean when they say "don't give them an inch."

They *will* kill someone by running over them.

It's only a matter of time.

ICE is the most disruptive presence in Chicago right now. My kid's public school had to cancel planned outdoor activities because ICE is scaring all the children so badly.

South Chicago charter school may abruptly close, stranding 250 students Parents were informed Friday that Epic Charter School is likely to close in June, and maybe before that. This could be the first-ever mid-year closure of a charter school.

Another desperately struggling charter school in Chicago (at a time when the administration in DC is looking to pump a bit more money into the charter movement) chicago.suntimes.com/education/20...

City Council committee defies Mayor Johnson by voting to lift Chicago ban on video gaming The ordinance backed by the License Committee Tuesday would legalize video gaming terminals at roughly 3,500 establishments licensed as “public places of amusement” where liquor can be sold, but is no...

Not sure why some elected leaders in the city of Chicago want to allow more than 3,500 mini-casinos to open virtually all over town, even as a spanking new casino is finally being built downtown.

The numbers seem to favor Mayor Johnson's stand on this one chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/20...

A man sits with his back to the camera. His back is full of scars and ridges in the skin from beatings. A headline reads: Park Service Is Ordered to Take Down Some Materials on Slavery and Tribes. Photo via the Library of Congress.

The Trump administration ordered several National Park Service sites to take down materials related to slavery and Native Americans, including an 1863 photograph of a formerly enslaved man with scars on his back, one of the most powerful images of the Civil War era. nyti.ms/4nyyyaQ

Leg braces - $20-$30k, I’ve had at LEAST 6 leg braces.

Wheelchairs - $5k for manual with no bells and whistles, I’ve had 2

Medications - anywhere between $100-$2000 /month pending health issues

Surgeries - 19 surgeries $40k to - $1m inc. hospital stays

I had polio. This is the cost.

Gonna be awkward in a week when city government does its annual ritual of trying to suppress Mexican Independence Day celebrations while also trying to maintain a feel-good "we've got your back" PR energy

Every once in a while I tell people from other countries about how the health insurance system works in the US and they are aghast. Yesterday a guy straight up didn’t believe me when I said people can die because of not being able to afford medicine. He was sure I meant in the distant past.

RFK Jr.’s enemies list just got a lot longer First Bernie Sanders. Then CDC directors. Now, more than 1,000 current and former HHS staffers are demanding he step down.

Dude, you knew he was a vaccine-denying piece of shit whose plan was to dismantle the public health apparatus in the US when you confirmed him, don't try the "shocked, shocked" act now
