That is some high piled BS right there. They certainly did not serve and protect that 15 year old girl did they! ICE is the American Gestapo and Hoffman Estates police department failed its citizens today. Period.

There has to be a reckoning for this, for all of it. No more “look forward, not back” nonsense. Not this time. Those who ordered this evil shit, and those who carried those orders out *must* be held to account.

ICE drag girl out of car & body slam her to ground—then pin her face down & kneel on her neck.

"I'm 15!" she cries out. "I'm not resisting!"

Agents have now asked multiple area housing associations to unlock main doors—so they can go door to door.

I went out on a fact-finding bike ride this morning.
Did the City put some bike racks on Scarth St. Mall like they said they would?
Yes, they did. #YQRcc #YQRbike

A long, rusty, wheel bender design with a ding in the bottom. 2 ideal parking spots for bikes, 4 if they turn sideways.

Why? Who is this meant to be good for? Nobody wants your shit AI books, never mind 8,000 in a year. Just a terrible idea and a horrible road the publishing industry is heading down.

Bookseller article with the headline "New publisher Spines aims to 'disrupt' industry by using AI to publish 8,000 books in 2025 alone" 🤮🤮🤮

The CDC and ACIP quietly updated their recommendations and now specifically include pregnant individuals among those eligible for COVID vaccination.

Under the new policy, insurers are required to cover the vaccine for pregnant people without cost sharing. buff.ly/Id2vJbe

PSA: People on bikes aren’t swerving to annoy drivers, they’re just trying not to die or destroy their mode of transportation.
This is generally what the bike portion looks like of our “shared” roads. Glorious.

They are building a Propaganda State.

They are cooking the books on job creation.

Now they are rigging death numbers so no one knows how many people die because of their attacks on vaccines and science.

You've heard about the flat earther running for school board, but meet @hollyfortrustee.bsky.social, the competent, passionate and brilliant candidate I'm rooting for to win.

She's going to fight to ensure public dollars stay in the public system, and teachers have the supports they need.

So yes, you can support institutional neutrality AND support divestment from Apartheid South Africa, precisely because partnering with institutions with values contrary to academic principles is both contrary to AND IRRELEVANT TO institutional neutrality.
