For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

My experience in reporting on food insecurity is that other than households that are reliant on SNAP, there is no one more freaked out about SNAP cuts than food bank administrators.
ppl are bringing up food banks and yea absolutely you should give generously to food banks and panhandlers but like you cant mutual aid state capacity. If every food bank in the us got their annual revenue already, saved 100% of it, and no overhead besides food they might be able to provide 2 months
40 odd million people use SNAP. 7 million WIC. food banks are already way down because of funding cuts. It’s going to be catastrophic

" I can hear you! The rest of the world hears you! And the people -- and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!"

It brings to mind what Toni Morrison said...
"And my feeling is that white people have a very, very serious problem and they should start thinking about what they can do about it. Take me out of it.”

If this is where you are on him, sorry but You have a problem, not everyone else. Fix yourself
This platner problem feels like another variation of a certain group of white guy Dems pissed off over the place women and poc have in the Democratic party. What's concerning and new here is their reaction is more extreme in what they are willing to overlook to push what they want.

A theory - a portion of Platner's relatability isn't that he's working class, it's that he's a downwardly mobile failson in a way that resonates with his online supporters

Port Washington: Let's build a data center. It won't cost residents a thing

Except for that pesky $1.4 - $1.6 Billion dollar bill for a transmission line (among other things)

Guess who pays that for just one data center🤫

Haunting photo posted by the 40th Ward Instagram. The caption says that the photo represents the remnants of two workers who were taken by ICE today. Chilling.

One local food pantry is open on Friday morning. Cars line up for blocks waiting to get admitted to the parking lot. They wait, hoping the food doesn’t run out before they get in! I can only imagine what it will be like when SNAP benefits run out 11/1! #MomSky
I bet by the end of the week the East Wing will be no more
I honestly think if the economy collapsed and everything went to shit trump would abscond with all our money

Los Angeles, CA -

City Councilman saying that the man shot was “Richard LA,” who runs this TikTok account: www.tiktok.com/@richardla18...

Price’s office said “Richard is a pillar of our community, a fearless citizen journalist whose authentic storytelling has consistently uplifted…” South LA.

Yup... let's ask his wife or ex wives
And look at this goon in a different incident...this is how people get killed
ICE points gun at pregnant mother—a U.S. citizen with her son in the back seat.

"Are you gonna shoot a pregnant woman?" she cries. "You just put a gun on me!"

"Then he had the balls to say, 'It’s your fault I did that.'"

Video clearly shows her just driving down public street in Berwyn, Illinois.
Maybe in the long run it would be cheaper to just ask him for a number for how much he thinks he can milk us for over the next 4 years and we'll just pay that now if he resigns
Breaking News: President Trump wants $230 million from the Justice Department for investigating him, people familiar with the matter say. Any settlement might ultimately be approved by senior department officials who defended him or those in his orbit. nyti.ms/4hmIi5X

Christ almighty, a prominent Nazi tattoo is not an “impossible standard.” This is bare minimum stuff we’re talking about.

If you think a Nazi tattoo makes a candidate more appealing, you should probably reflect a little bit on why that is. Maybe reflect a lot.
After hearing this guy shitposts on Reddit and has sick tats, I'm even more FOR him to defeat Susan Collins.

We need to stop holding rising Progressives to impossible standards; more real and imperfect they are, the more we need them in office. Can't fight Nazis w/ the Hakeem Jeffries of the world!
If we want to defeat Susan Collins, we need to try something new. The same old tired playbook will not work.
Impossible standards...are you kidding?

Greetings! I’m here in South LA, in front of Santee High School. Federal law enforcement rammed a vehicle, and shot at least one suspect during a law enforcement operation. One man who streams on Tik Tok, Nick, was reportedly hit. One US marshal hit. Lots of preliminary info.

As most are aware by now, ICE is slamming the north side today. They've been seen in Andersonville, Rogers Park, West Ridge, Edgewater + Evanston. Several people abducted, agents still active.

Shared with permission—rapid response whistle team at Bryn Mawr & Broadway this morning.
