Microsoft Office's grammar editor and Grammarly are having a big argument about a comma in my word doc and it feels like I'm trying to break up a fight between children while writing a grant.

Stopping ICE from terrorizing cities, kidnapping children, and murdering people on the streets is the most important priority. Even if it requires a shutdown or cuts to HHS funding.

Many people out at a rally. A sign saying "unite and resist" hangs off a balcony and the space needle is visible in the background

This is a black and white flyer with information about an upcoming rally and protest in Philadelphia. It shows a picture of Independence Hall, a landmark building in the old city section of Philadelphia. This is the building where the declaration of independence was signed around. The spire of the building are the words “NO KINGS” and “NO TRUMP”. On the lower half of the flyer, it gives the name of the protest: ONE MARCH 2025. Below that is the hashtag for the organizing movement, #50501MOVEMENT. On the lower right of the flyer is the information for the protest: Saturday, March 1, 1:11 PM, Independence Hall. Below that is the subreddit for the sponsors: R/50501. I will be there – please come join us in Philadelphia, the birthplace of our nation.
