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!"

In memory of the great writer Dan McQuade, I wrote about how we spent about fifteen years sending each other really stupid press release quotes. I'll miss him.

A couple days ago, I heard the terrible news that the writer Dan McQuade passed away. I’ve read some great tributes to him from people…

The wealthy have class solidarity and we'll only beat them when we have it too

Real talk, if Thomas Paine were alive today he'd currently be in prison for sending "The Case for Bombing Their Homes" to his 500,000 Substack readers and then minutes after hitting the publish button attempting to purchase 57 tons of fertilizer
I think that overall substack has been a net negative for the American experiment, which is very funny because Thomas Paine would have loved substack

have there been *any* rotten pieces of shit who die young, or even in a timely fashion? the only ones I can think of are Andrew Breitbart, George Lincoln Rockwell and the guy whose death you can’t talk about even though his widow is touring like Taylor Swift on it

Lawyer here. There’s a lot of misinformation about what this means. It means he’s innocent even though he did it and the judge said that it’s good what he did

Just a reminder that at least 242 journalists were killed by Israel since October 7.
Palestine was the test to see what they could do. Not standing in solidarity with Palestinians was not only a major moral and ethical failing it was a strategic mistake that everyone will pay for.

The arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort, plus the New York Times story about using facial recognition to take away PreCheck and Global Entry from observers, reveals how closely linked these two missions are. There is no separating ICE’s twin missions of ethnic cleansing and ideological terror.

the media and people like Bill Ackman exploited Islamophobia and unfounded accusations of antisemitism to try and defeat Mamdani but I think the real reason they feared him so much is he will actually do stuff like this
EXCLUSIVE: Three delivery apps accused of "cheating workers" — UberEats, Fantuan and Hungry Panda — will repay $4.6 million in wages that it held back in violation of the city's landmark minimum pay law for deliveristas, the Mamdani administration will announce this morning.
