USA out of Chicago

A digital illustration of a bottle of Chicago’s local and beloved and quite vile liqueur, Malört. In this rendition the usual copy in the label has been altered to read:
Jeppson’s Malörtov Cocktail
USA Out Of Chicago
Fuck Ice
The cap of the bottle is unscrewed with a rag stuffed down the neck and three wooden matches are around the base of the bottle offering the viewer the opportunity to decide what is to be done.

From a constituent in 📍 Brooklyn, NY

Impeachment Articles Are Warranted

Impeachment proceedings against Trump must be filed. I know that the MAGA devotees controlling Congress are unwilling to vote for it as they are too feckless, spineless and gutless to stand up to Trump. That of course means our democracy is waiting and depending on all of you to stand up for what is right, what is legal and moral, and what is American That said, his recent invasion of Chicago is reminiscent of 1930s Germany. A strong reaction by the Congressional Democrats is needed. Please stand up to him before it is too late.

An interaction between someone else and a French couple has made me think.

Why don't we have protests every day until things change? It would be more affective.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.
