People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Times are tough, and some of my paid subscribers have had to cancel lately due to financial hardships. I get it, and I wish for better times for us all. Unfortunately, paid subscriptions are now dipping into unsustainable territory. I am hoping to get eight new paid subscribers before the new year.

I dropped off food from FNB at the Lawndale, Humboldt Park, Love Shack, and Veggie Mijas in the last week. Met some lovely people and it felt great to do something tangibly helpful.
Dropping off some food for your neighbors is an easy way to help out. No sign-up needed!

We focused on the rapid proliferation of license plate readers and adoption of real-time crime center systems, but police spent loads on other tech.
For instance, police in Oak Brook, Countryside, North Riverside, and Willowbrook bought handheld & vehicle-mounted StarChase GPS launchers.

@mayorofchicago.bsky.social cutting library funds in favor of ShotSpotter (aka surveillance)? How does this make our city better? Please re-consider
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has proposed disastrous cuts to our city's libraries while setting aside $5M for a ShotSpotter replacement. As library associate Sara Heymann told me, “Libraries embody everything we need to fight back against fascism.” My piece on what’s at stake and how to fight back:
You Can’t Fight Fascism While Defunding Libraries
“Libraries embody everything that we need right now to fight back against fascism," says Sara Heymann.
