Next time anyone talks about arming teachers, remember that today a guy waltzed into downtown Highland Park, shot more than 30 people, and then waltzed out. An entire armed police all around couldn't stop him. Heck, they still can't even find him.
Joel's house in "Risky Business," Gary's house in "Weird Science," Cameron's house in "Ferris Bueller's Day Off," Jake's house in "Sixteen Candles"...all in Highland Park. It's a place of movie magic and one of the 100 wealthiest cities in America. No place is safe. No place.
Before the Republican talking heads chalk this up to “Chicago violence”:
Highland Park is 30 miles north of Chicago. It’s also one of the most affluent suburbs and has a non existent crime rate
This is not a Chicago problem, it’s an America problem. Happy 4th!
The Republican Agenda
- Ban Abortion
- Ban books
- Bully LGBTQ kids
- Raise taxes on working people
- Cut Social Security and Medicare
- Commit crimes to hold onto power to do all the above
It’s impossible to overstate the earthquake this will cause inside the Court, in terms of the destruction of trust among the Justices and staff. This leak is the gravest, most unforgivable sin.
If @GovAbbott is as “anti-rape” as he claims, why doesn’t he just lead the Texas state leg to pass a law for $10k bounties on people who engage in or aid sexual assault?
Or is he opposed to that bc it’s a slippery slope of vigilantism where men could be unjustly targeted? 🤔
love you forever, spaz. i will never forget your hugs and your laugh and the sheer joy on your face when we’d run into each other in chicago. thank you for always showing up for me with that “big brother I never had” energy.
My grandfather fled Nazi Germany in 1933 for British-occupied Palestine. He fought to establish a Jewish homeland dedicated to ensuring that Jews will never again have to live as a marginalized people. Don’t we all deserve a promise like that?

@jonfavs@Sen_JoeManchin @SenatorSinema The filibuster, if it is to exist, should be a talking filibuster. Make the Senate Republicans explain for hours and hours why they are supporting the insurrectionists.
Breaking: #SCOTUS to hear direct challenge to Roe v. Wade. Never forget that McConnell and others mocked us and gaslit us through the Kavanaugh fight for claiming that legal abortion was in jeopardy. They knew. They lied. We knew. We fought. And we're so far from done fighting.
Truly disgusting to see IDF defenders start trying to suggest a "conspiracy" between the media and Hamas. They are unable to offer facts or intelligence to defend the IDF strike on the AP's building, so instead they suggest that media outlets are complicit.
