Despite what some, including at DHS, are claiming, this video isn’t from a year ago in Chicago. It was Friday in Hoffman Estates, in my district, a street I’ve walked myself. It appears to show a child being violently detained by ICE. It’s real, and I’m demanding accountability.

Honey, you should start with lessons in spelling.
Then get back to me about the advanced skill of reading source documents.

That 0.4% of the Medicaid tax you paid must really hurt you.
Were you forced to eat one less slice of pizza last year?

And it is very clear that they are incredibly weak, they cry when lampooned and the Speaker sent everyone home to avoid embarrassment.
Weak.
Pathetic.

Republicans control both houses. If they’re too weak to pass anything, that’s their problem, not the Dem’s.

I think that’s the translation anyway.
Little does he know that he is threatening guillotine builders.

And speaking of due process, perhaps he should try passing just one of his EO’s through Congress.

He is taking healthcare from citizens.
The undocumented weren’t getting ACA or Medicaid in the first place.
Read some facts instead of believing TV hosts out of their depth.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

I make things as a hobby. I have no desire to ‘monetize’ that, but it’s what I’m constantly being told I should do. Just No!

ICE is all over the city and burbs today, including Waukegan. Multiple reports on social media from people who have found empty work vans and are trying to locate family of their owners. This is a near daily occurrence now.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.

This is the response I received from ICE when I inquired about the 13-year-old they abducted from Everett, Mass. on Friday:

Good afternoon, Marisa.
Please see the below from DHS on the 13-year-old alien.
Please feel free to direct any questions to them.
Respectfully,
James

Russ Vought is now officially using the government shutdown as a pretext for his continued attempts to permanently gut the civil service.

The executive branch cannot unilaterally reduce agency funding that Congress has allocated: This is a serious separation of powers issue.

And I once priced fabric for a quilt I thought about making and yep. I couldn’t even afford that! 😅

Once upon a time fabric was better quality and relatively inexpensive and sewing was a thrifty way to expand a wardrobe. That ended in the early ‘90’s. 😕

The friend wants to buy for $20 (or even worse, wants to provide materials and expects maker to work for free, lol). They bitch when maker explains that shirt would have to be $300+ to be worth their time.

This also leads to non-makers being ‘helpful’ by suggesting their maker friends sell items (to their friends) for far, far below the cost to make the item.
That shirt, for a non-sweatshop, non-assembly line maker, takes 2+ days and $20+ in fabric (really nice fabric $50+), trim excluded.
