Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning.

This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

It’s a big deal to see my church as plaintiffs in a federal lawsuit. Proud of them for showing solidarity and advocacy for those who are vulnerable in our communities. Exactly how we should be leveraging institutional power 🩷✊🏻

MC USA is proud to join a multifaith coalition opposing the rescission of ICE’s sensitive locations policy. The government's decision interferes with our ability to fulfill our religious mandate and serve all our congregants with the dignity they deserve. More here: ow.ly/HRux50UXLnQ

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

Any “Christian” who has read the Bible should be aware of this verse or ones similar…interesting how “Christians” don’t know their Bibles…perhaps no “Christians” in this administration?

“For judgment will be without mercy to anyone who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.”

I pulled the plug on X this week, and disabled my account after 14 years on the app. Hoping to find bluer skies here! 🩵

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Almost two full years in my cozy little abode. And I just re-signed my lease for a third year, which will make this the longest I’ve lived in one residence since high school 🩷 it feels good to come home and feel settled

So proud and happy to be done with my first semester of grad school!! Working full time + being in school is no joke, but I did it!
