Firefox has been messed up for me since the last iOS update and I can't figure out how to fix it. I've updated Firefox and taken it back to default, but I still can't make links work except by using CTRL+Enter.

ICE and CBP agents seem to enjoy gratuitously breaking glass—from car windows to store fronts to homes. It’s an expression of unchecked power and dominance: “We’re in charge. We break and shatter what we want.”

A shot of hope. Chicago, you rule.
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"
