I'm dragging this photo over from the other place and pinning it here since it makes me laugh. This is from my morning commute on the CTA Blue Line in February 2020. My first sign that things were going to get really weird, really quickly, and stay that way.
Today's 20F degree temps felt absolutely balmy compared to last week.

Hi friends. These folks are fakers, report and block them. They seem to be pretending to be CCBF, who did such a good job ending money bail that they dismantled their own organization.

I work with the 19-24-aged crowd for a living, so I am used to a certain level of immaturity, and some of it I find charming, but once in a while someone turns up in my office who is 20 going on 14, and it always takes me by surprise.

The difference between calling for a strike, but not actually organizing one
Can confirm. Organizers stopped by our store 4 or 5 times ahead of last week's strike, starting about 10 days in advance.
Today's strike I first encountered via an IG post 2 days ago. No one's reached out at all.
Again, all power to the cause but last week's was the real deal.

BREAKING: A federal judge ordered former Mayor Emanuel to testify about allegations that a “code of silence” among CPD officers led to a botched 2018 raid of a Back of the Yards apartment that violated the civil rights of a family with 4 children — ages 4, 8, 11 and 13. @wttw.bsky.social

If this were me, I would frame this photograph, and it would be the first thing you'd see when you walked into my house.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

This is some keystone cops bullshit. They really do hire the dumbest dudes on the planet.
In videos posted on social media, one employee can be heard saying: “This is the Ecuadorian consulate. You’re not allowed to enter.” The agent responds, “If you touch me, I’ll grab you.”
