ICE agents arrest Alderperson Jessie L. Fuentes (26th Ward of Chicago city council) after she questions them on whether they have a signed judicial warrant to arrest a person at Humboldt Park Hospital.

“He has Constitutional rights.”

“No.”

ICE’s exact mindset: no one is allowed any rights now.

Ack —tree, not tee

Happy Sunday!
“I’d like a few highlights on top,”
Said the tee at the Fall Beauty Shop.
Mother Nature complied
With a sunny topside,
Just some glam before all the leaves drop.

A tree with some yellow leaves at the top. The rest of the leaves are green. Blue sky and other green trees in the background.

Thanks for that correction and telling us the difference. Lady beetles are NOT a loveliness! (A swarm, yes)

Happy Saturday!
loveliness of ladybugs
feast on too-ripe fallen fruit
Nature wastes nothing
#haiku #haikusaturday

Rotting pear on the ground. The top is being eaten away by many, many ladybugs

Happy Sunday!
This tortoise won’t win any races,
But his owner still puts him through paces;
One thing that he knows—
He’ll never need clothes,
And he’ll never be homeless, good gracious!
#limerick #limericksunday

A man at a Renaissance Festival leads a tortoise on the grounds. The man wears a long blue headscarf, blue tunic, short black pants & boots. The tortoise has a basket on its back, presumably for tips. Wooden stage and greenery are in the background.
