I love equality, kindness, and empathy. I especially love spotting it in the wild! Show me your kindness, everyone.

Chicago Police Dismissed a Recruit’s Claims That a Colleague Sexually Assaulted Her. Then He was Accused Again and Again. The Invisible Institute and ProPublica reviewed over 300 complaints accusing Chicago officers of sexual assault and misconduct. Time and time again, the police department downplayed or ignored claims,...

NEW: We identified at least 14 officers in the Chicago Police Department who, according to disciplinary records, have faced multiple accusations of sexual assault or misconduct in the past 10 years.

Most have not been convicted.

The US Constitution was annulled at the Pentagon this week as the Air Force accepted a Qatari bribe and officials invited employees to a Christian prayer meeting in the building's auditorium.

No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

All the postpartum doulas, Newborn Care specialists, sleep consultants, and nannies are up in arms about this. This and the disbanding of the committee overseeing bacteria levels in formula. Where are all the pro life people about this? Babies are going to die.

When leaders accept favors from repressive regimes, it’s not just unethical.

It normalizes corruption. And when corruption spreads, rights collapse.

PBS began under president LBJ in 1969. You've had 56 years to be upset about it. But the fact that a president actually set it up MIGHT throw a wrench into your thinking.

The embarrassing Liar in Chief is lying again. European food safety is far superior to American standards. A deal like this would be foolish for them to accept.

Somehow, it's ok to cut funding for children's television, children's cancer research, safe formula, children's mental health services, promote fear of vaccines, remove trans health care, force them to work late on school nights (Ahem, Florida), and expect kids to LIVE til Christmas?

Mr Roger's would like a word with you. There was a time when he singlehandedly saved public television. If the kindest man in the world cannot reach you, I forsee a visit from multiple ghosts in the future on Christmas Eve.

Levi Anthony Luckenbach, let's not forgetting getting rid of the committee monitoring bacteria levels in infant formula AND getting rid of the agency that runs the "Back to sleep" campaign (also called Safe Sleep.)

Gosh....if only there was some way of checking to see what our elected officials were up to and how they voted. If only there were official records of such betrayal of public trust. I mean, besides court cases.
