Feds Won't Pause Immigration Blitz During Halloween, Día De Los Muertos, Homeland Security Boss Says During a news conference Thusday, Gov. JB Pritzker also slammed federal agents' targeting of people without criminal records and using tear gas on neighborhood streets.

To be in public office right now is to constantly ask yourself: How do I make sure I'm standing on the right side of history?

There's a simple answer.

The wrong side of history will always tell you to be afraid - the right side of history will always expect you to be brave.

Alicia, I had the same experience last week. Ugh. Skip episode.

Wishes of peace and care for you and your loved ones.
