My 1st post here is for my daughters (and yours), whose voices and spirits may be strong but their rights to speak up, speak freely, and assert autonomy over their own bodies are at great risk. I am forever their ally, their advocate, and their Dad.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

Bishop Seitz on meeting with Pope this morning: “Our Holy Father is very personally concerned about these matters. He expressed his desire that the U.S. Bishops' Conference would speak strongly on this issue. It means a lot to all of us to know of his personal desire that we continue to speak out.”

Soybean Farmer: So now I've got a tariff war that's killing my market. I don't have any money from grain we're sending to other countries for USAID. I mean, I've got a compound problem. I don't know how you plan for next year because we don't know where we're at.

in the column this week:

-advocates have confirmed/are investigating the abductions of ~25 unhoused folks by federal agents in chicago (via @katieprout.bsky.social)

-state/local leaders crack down on anti-ice protesters

-civil rights orgs ask chief judge to bar ice arrests at county courthouses

Make It Make Sense: ICE targets Chicago’s homeless community

Plus: state and local leaders crack down on anti-ICE protesters and advocates ask the chief judge to keep ICE out of county courthouses.

That’s a lie and he knows it. What a disgusting excuse to slash healthcare for millions of Americans.

Here’s a fact, Mike, immigrants cost less, not more.

If you really believed your nonsense, you’d debate it on the House floor instead of lying to American people.

🧵Yes, we need to demand more than health insurance. We need to spell out and demand that Trump’s various thug tactics be stopped. Not just immigration, firing, retribution, controlling DOJ for malicious prosecutions, good faith answers at oversite.Raise it loud & string so entire country hears it⬇️
