At Chicago’s immigration court. Just witnessed masked ICE agents seize two men immediately after DHS dismissed their cases and motioned for expedited removal. Unfortunately, recording is prohibited & ICE had security threaten to call “federal police” when they thought maybe that happened.

Knowing that you love the earth changes you, activates you to defend & protect & celebrate. But when you feel that the earth loves you in return, that feeling transforms the relationship from a one-way street into a sacred bond. ~Robin W. Kimmerer 🕉️ 📸 Woodhouse's Scrub-jay 🪶🌿 #Corvids #Thursjay
That would've been a great #EarthDay quote, but I went with Carl Sagan. Looking back...over his left shoulder in the sunlight is another look at Jay 1.0, a Woodhouse's Scrub-jay, which happens to be a corvid with a blue head.

We are still seeing a lot of COVID cases, hospitalizations, and long COVID.  Just because Trump drama with tariffs/ICE/DOGE captures most of the headlines doesn’t mean COVID disappeared.  It’s merely our government/media’s desire to silence COVID into a memory hole.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

The CDC rejected a request for help "due to the complete loss" of their lead poisoning experts.
