New: Chicago Public Schools is ending forced enrollment in military-run JROTC classes after my investigation w/ @chalkbeatCHI revealed the practice at schools serving primarily Black and Latino students. Story co-published w/ @WBEZ https://t.co/zeoS8DEvEn
The prosecutor did not “make an error.” He lied.
He lied about the police killing a child.
Ending this isn’t just about consequences for who pulls the trigger. It’s about admitting to and confronting an entire system that exists to protect, defend, and cover up state violence.

A new investigation from me and @BetterGov shows Illinois under both Bruce Rauner and @JBPritzker has failed to enforce a law requiring companies getting big tax breaks to report how much they spend with minority- and women-owned businesses.

Netflix only has the first Lord of the Rings movie and none of the others. Not even the extended version. I can’t think of a bigger fucking slap in the face to me or my livelihood
