Hear that MAGA-Roonies?

TEXAS has a 39% higher crime rate than California (with no guns).

All of these cities, and there are more, have a HIGHER CRIME RATE that ANY CITY he invaded.

We still have missing bodies from the floods. We have a serial killer in Houston. We need to see to our own house before running off to play dipshits and dingos in someone else's yard.

After Columbia canceled my course on race and media, and Washington Poat fired me for speaking about race and violence,

I’m teaching about race and media anyway!

@resistanceschool.bsky.social fall session on Race, Media and International Affairs starts tonight!

600+ signups.

We move!! ✊🏾

Another effort to track ICE raids was just taken offline People over Papers was removed by Padlet, the platform it was built on, yesterday.

Identifying public officials isn't "doxing." People have the right to know who is working for their government. Nor, for that matter, is it "radical left-wing terrorism." So it's frustrating to see platforms caving to these bad faith characterizations. www.technologyreview.com/2025/10/06/1...

@unraveledpress.com & other press have been threatened, shot with less-lethals and arrested while reporting on federal immigration activities in Chicagoland and on the resulting protests at Broadview.

I'm now at a hearing asking the federal court to rein ICE & co in. I'll let you know how it goes.

Chicago is not laying down for ICE!
This is what community looks like!

“MAKE THEIR LIVES A LIVING HELL”

This just happened:

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.

Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

I call on Governor Pritzker to withdraw the State Police goon squads brutalizing protesters on ICE’s behalf in Broadview.

The Convicted FElon has finally united the people on one thing.

ICE agents are reportedly creeping around high schools in Chicago. And because they are wearing masks, often not wearing uniforms and using unmarked vehicles this means that ANYONE could show up dressed like this and disappear kids off the streets. This is especially dangerous

Disgusting smear=unassailable truth

Texas proudly invading Illinois.

It’s hard to describe the level of potential constitutional crisis here.

Yes. And what a crucial time to support Brighton Park

The Unequal Effects of Unequal Contact: Power, Race, and Social Cohesion in the U.S. Military Salma Mousa* Eddie Yangt May 21, 2025 Abstract The contact hypothesis posits that cooperative, equal contact reduces prejudice. Yet in practice, contact is often unequal — both within the contact setting itself, or because of inherent power imbalances between minority and majority groups. Leveraging rich data from surveys, censuses, and testimonials among servicemembers in WWII and the Vietnam War, we develop and test a theory of unequal contact. For minori-ties, we find that equal contact improves intergroup attitudes, while unequal contact between soldiers and lieutenants sparks backlash effects. For majorities, we find mixed effects: White soldiers respond to equal contact with more support for military integration but less support for Black rights, suggesting that equality may trigger feelings of threat. We add qualitative nuance to these results by digitizing thousands of veteran testimonies from both wars, revealing drastic asymmetric in how White vs. non-White veterans describe their experiences with race within and outside the military. Our results underscore the importance of internal and external power status in determining the effects of contact.

There are reasons for what’s going on with this administration and the military

KFF map titled “At Least 10% of the Population in All Congressional Districts in Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, and South Carolina Are Enrolled in the ACA Marketplaces.” The map shows the share of population that is enrolled in the Affordable Care Act Marketplaces in 2025 by congressional district, 119th Congress.

Kind of feels like feds occupying our city for a month, killing one person and shooting another while attacking neighborhoods with chemical weapons and kidnapping hundreds of people already counts as a civil war whether the Guard arrives or not, but what do we know?

Same kind of history for me with the NYT. No more.

How long will CPD keep showing up to “protect” ICE just to get sprayed? Also, take off your sunglasses if you get pepper sprayed

Sen. Tammy Duckworth: "ICE are raging through the streets of Chicago trying to intimidate everyday ordinary citizens trying to go to school and work. That's not what America is about. It's shameful that the president has instigated this."

Way to go @blockclubchi.bsky.social!! subscribe, everyone!!

Right, enjoy the free trip to Portland and don't follow unjust orders. I don't give a fuck if it's lawful, be sand in the gears. They ain't even paying those Guardsmen because of the shutdown, are they?
