A plea to journalists who insist on posting screenshots of court documents without including links: Please at least include the case number (at the top) rather than cropping it out so the rest of us have an easier time digging up the link that you inexcusably failed to provide?

Too many people fail to understand the role poverty plays in chronic illness. Money can’t buy health or happiness, but a lack of money can make your health worse & life harder. Universal healthcare & basic income would do more to create a healthier society than all the “wellness” in the world.

Trump is sending ICE to blue cities to enact the "largest mass deportation program in history" and Chicago is at the top of the list. I'm calling for every Democratic leader and candidate to stand against ICE, to call for its abolition, and to materially support immigrants. Inaction is complicity.
