After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's. Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1. Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

Chicago, I don't ask you for much, just more accountability of CPD, more taxes on the super wealthy, no Paul Vallas types as mayor and naming a snowplow Abolish Ice. Let's make this happen.

@stephaniemiller.bsky.social as a follow up to my email, here’s just a little bit of what’s been happening at my local Home Depot. Coincidence that a large MAGA donor would allow fascist thugs to kidnapped citizens in their stores? 🤔

What the hell is going on in this country? How is that not fascism?" The post includes a verified badge.

@stephaniemiller.bsky.social What’s going on in my beloved Chicago is breaking my heart. We are not okay. I love my neighbors & our diversity; ICE is destroying the fabric that makes this city so beautiful. We’ll persevere, we are the city of broad shoulders, but this is going to be a marathon.

The animal most in need of "rewilding" is us. I spent some time tracking mountain lions in the Pacific Northwest, getting close to these frightening but magical apex predators. Here's why bringing them back to the East would be good for us. Gift link. wapo.st/3KksTqC

Column | I got nose-to-nose with a mountain lion. It was scary – and magical.

Restoring these big cats to their historical range in the United States could help the environment and us.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

257. The Commission recommends that all Member States:
(a) Employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent the commission of genocide in the Gaza Strip;
(b) Cease the transfer of arms and other equipment or items, including jet fuel, to the State of Israel or third States where there is reason to suspect their use in military operations that have involved or could involve the commission of genocide;
(c) Ensure individuals and corporations in their territories and within their jurisdiction are not involved in the commission of genocide, aiding and assisting the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide and investigate and prosecute those who may be implicated in these crimes under international law;
(d) Facilitate the investigations and domestic proceedings and take action (including imposing sanctions) against the State of Israel and against individuals or corporations that are involved in or facilitating the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide;
(e) Cooperate with the investigation of the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court.
258. The Commission recommends that the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court:
(a) Examine, within its continuing investigation in the Situation in the State of Palestine, the crime of genocide for amendment to existing arrest warrants and addition to future application for arrest warrants;
(b) Examine the involvement of officials mentioned in this report for inclusion as those most responsible for international crimes committed in the occupied Palestinian territory.

My family escaped Ukraine from the pogroms and were lucky enough to escape to the US. They took my family in — we had nothing and offered nothing, but a desire to get ahead and be free while being safe. This is a country of immigrants, and we should be honoring that history.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.
