Friends and comrades made a crowdfunding page for my family.

It’s really hard to post this. I know that there are a lot of other important issues asking for money but things have gotten to the point where we need to open ourselves up to your support.

Thank you for your consideration.

Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims agent said, 'Do something b----' before shooting Body-camera video appears to contradict the government's claim that Marimar Martinez drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney alleged...

Remember how ICE claimed they were rammed by 10 vehicles and had to shoot a woman 7 times? Turns out, her lawyer has footage of a federal SUV slamming into the woman's vehicle, getting out, yelling "do something, bitch!" and opening fire.

Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

People think that when you become disabled, support magically appears

That once it’s β€œofficial” you will have your basic needs met

The truth is people fight for years to get the bare minimum in benefits

Caregivers are nearly impossible to find

If you’re not rich or very lucky… you’re on your own

IN HONOR OF FRIENDSHIP MONTH:

djt: "We have certain things in common, Jeffrey."

Epstein: "Yes we do, come to think of it."

djt: "A pal is a wonderful thing. Happy Birthday- and may every day be another wonderful secret."

And by "wonderful secret", he means raping children.

Trump’s order to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago is illegal, immoral, and must be stopped by the courts. ICE is already wreaking havoc in our communities. Let’s call this what it is: an invasion by out-of-state troops coming here only with the purpose of tormenting Chicagoans.

ICE Barbie is complaining that her jackbooted masked thugs deployed in Chicago aren't getting served in local eateries.
Someone tell her that when you deploy troops into a supposed war zone, you need to make provisions to supply them yourself.

According to my weather app, the wind chill’s making it feel like 2 degrees centigrade out there this morning, but it’s cozy in the bookshop and we have tea.

Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school.

Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

The news I keep seeing out of Chicago is really scary... I'm glad people are standing up to fascism there, but I just hope the danger they're putting themselves in isn't for nothing, and that the ICE thugs terrorizing them are eventually brought to justice.

Youtube wants me to watch highlights of last night's Red Sox game. Like, fuck no. Your algorithm should be smart enough to grasp that I don't watch highlights when they lose.

Hertling: His comments about putting hands back on recruits… We moved away from that 30 years ago because it’s ineffective…

You know where it didn’t go away? The Russian army.

I think it might be on the BBC IPLAYER. And there's a 20 minute highlight package on YouTube.

It really was a good game.

I'm going to record tonight's game and get some sleep.

🀞We close it out.

I recorded it on TNT SPORTS UK intending to watch it today, but then I thought "I'll just watch an inning."

I ended up watching the whole thing and went to sleep at 2:45 a.m.

What a game.

And what a win!
