Johnson: "He has defunded our education system. He has defunded our transportation system. He's firing black women across this country. He's defunding our healthcare system. This president is absolutely out of control... Chicago is going to stand firm in protecting humanity."

NEW: Under Trump, the Department of Education has been bringing in activists hostile to public schools. It could mean a new era of private and religious schools boosted by tax dollars — and the end of public schools as we know them.

when we were talking about abolishing the police, it was because of shit like this. a military force against the people, rather than a service to protect.

The Fraternal Order of Police is on the side of MAGA and against the people they are supposed to be "policing." I think this says a lot to the people who insist local police are going to be "resistance."

Saddened to learn of the passing of Alex Kuo. A talented teacher, kind man, gifted writer. I’ve always cherished our week of being roommates, proper dinners and a door wide open to all literature can accomplish. I’m sure he’s doing well but may wish he stuck around for the Mariners season. RIP

Governor, you and the governors of IL, MA, NY and other blue states need to do something drastic. Form a compact, stop sending your tax dollars to DC, show the country that there is an alternative to this cruelty and chaos. We will follow you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

It will cost more than our mortgage and be worthless without spending another 15k for it to have any value. This amounts to 29% of our income to have something we can’t use because most providers won’t take what we can afford.
