Hey @thehill.com we’re still waiting on your apologies for this lie. 🤷♀️
Winter is a great time to experiment with new food preparations and flavors to keep your meals nutritious and interesting.
After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.
Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.
Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.
Chicago, I don't ask you for much, just more accountability of CPD, more taxes on the super wealthy, no Paul Vallas types as mayor and naming a snowplow Abolish Ice. Let's make this happen.
Chocolate's reign over Halloween is under threat from inflation, tariffs and high cocoa prices
@stephaniemiller.bsky.social as a follow up to my email, here’s just a little bit of what’s been happening at my local Home Depot. Coincidence that a large MAGA donor would allow fascist thugs to kidnapped citizens in their stores? 🤔
Photographers and storytellers Karla Gachet and Ivan Kashinsky document cumbia music in Colombia, Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Argentina and the United States. n.pr/4mY0owk
Narrator: This is fascism.

@stephaniemiller.bsky.social What’s going on in my beloved Chicago is breaking my heart. We are not okay. I love my neighbors & our diversity; ICE is destroying the fabric that makes this city so beautiful. We’ll persevere, we are the city of broad shoulders, but this is going to be a marathon.
If you live in Illinois, we need your help.
This will take less than five minutes and will truly pressure your local elected officials to stand with the people rather than ICE.

We must continue Dr. Jane Goodall's mission and all fight for the future of the planet.
Today marks the first day in public media’s history without federal funding. And we’re not going anywhere.
Listeners like you keep our mission alive. Protect one of the last places where America comes together to hear itself.

Brazilian Romani groups are fighting for recognition and for their rights, but prejudice continues to work against them
George Conway @gtconway.bsky.social on the Comey indictment: "This indictment is just quintessentially Trumpian: it is both breathtakingly corrupt, and mind-blowingly stupid."
The animal most in need of "rewilding" is us. I spent some time tracking mountain lions in the Pacific Northwest, getting close to these frightening but magical apex predators. Here's why bringing them back to the East would be good for us. Gift link. wapo.st/3KksTqC

Happy Mexican Independence Day, Illinois.
Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.
My family escaped Ukraine from the pogroms and were lucky enough to escape to the US.
They took my family in — we had nothing and offered nothing, but a desire to get ahead and be free while being safe.
This is a country of immigrants, and we should be honoring that history.
Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.
Hiding the truth.
Cannot emphasize enough how attached our local fascists were to Kirk and how much danger protesters in Chicago are in right now. There's already an off duty cop stalking out the ICE facility and harassing them everywhere they go
It would be cool if literally fucking anyone cared
Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.
"It's an ignorance and a willful turning from the Constitution."
@frankfigliuzzi.bsky.social tells @deanobeidallah.bsky.social about his outrage at SCOTUS for allowing ICE to racially profile and eroding the 4th amendment.
Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."
