ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety.
My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

NEW: A Texas court just blocked the execution of Robert Roberson, a man falsely convicted of a crime he did not commit.
While this is good news, the work for justice isn't over. Robert's legal team is still fighting for a retrial.

Yes.
ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.
Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.
That’s not making America great again.
Since today is Wrongful Conviction Day, it seems like an appropriate time for a brief thread re a bit of news: As of the end of August, I am no longer with The Intercept.

After meeting with educators from across several continents this week, I'm excited to be home but dreading returning to the United States in its current condition.
Our wounds are grievous and self-indlicted. The world is leaving us in the dust.
One time, I interviewed the Secretary of Agriculture. I worked for about a week to make sure that I didn’t ask a question that would violate the Hatch Act.
Meanwhile, these MFers exist…
With at least half a million people still left in Gaza City, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a "final warning" for residents to evacuate, saying those who remain will soon be regarded as “terrorists or terrorist supporters.”

URGENT: The Trump administration could deport Emmy-winning journalist Mario Guevara as soon as tomorrow after an appeals court denied his request to suspend his removal order.

Table 2. Never-WordsforPatientsWithInvisibleIllnesses– Liza Di LeoThomas,MD Di Leo Thomas, L Never-WordPhrase Alternative Explanation “But you look fine.” “At least you don’t look sick.” “Great news! All your tests are negative!” “You can’t believe everything you see online. Let’s not diagnose you based on a TikTok influencer.” “At least you’re not bedbound, wheelchair bound, don’t have cancer, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera….” “Wedon’t knowmuchaboutthisillness. There’s nothing I can do for you.” “It must be frustrating to feel so awful.” “The goodnewsiswehaveruledout (A, B, C) by doing these tests. But I believe there is something wrong, and I will work with you to figure it out.” “Thank you for taking such an interest in your illness and advocating for yourself. Let’s talk about what you saw online.” “It sounds like you are suffering with this quite a bit. Can you explain how it has affected your quality of life?” “I realize the research on Long COVID is slow to come, andIcan’t imagine how frustrating that is for you. Let’s see whatwecandorightnowtotreat someofyoursymptomsandimprove your quality of life.” Telling patients they look fine may make themfeel like you are doubting their illness, even if you are not. Somepatients maynotfeel like it is great newsthat test after test is negative whentheyknowsomethingis absolutely wrong with them. Online communities have become ahuge source of support for patients with LongCOVIDandotherinvisible illnesses. Hearing someone else describe the same symptomscanbe incredibly validating. Avoid dismissing these sources outright. Avoid starting with “at least,”which can sound dismissive or invalidating. Instead, explore how the illness impacts the patient’s life. Even without definitive treatments, providers can offer symptom managementandhope. Acknowledging the patient’s frustration while focusing on what can bedoneisempowering.

Mass walkout at the UN General Assembly during war criminal Netanyahu’s speech.
The West will “recognize” Palestine with one hand while arming Israel’s genocide with the other. By actively supporting Israel’s annexation and annihilation plans, it is ensuring there will soon be nothing left for a Palestinian state.

This is awful!
This would be like if the US criminal justice system were almost entirely based on arresting young Black men that are innocent, then putting them in jail for a year pre-trial where they're subjected to sexual violence and assault and saying "Just plead guilty and we'll let you out!"🤡
I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.
I'm talking about something very different.
Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.
Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.
But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿♂️
