Last May: “Since Trump dropped the suit, this is not a settlement. It would be as if he set the fund up without filing a lawsuit in the first place. He’s just using the court as cover so he can say it’s legal because it’s a settlement. But it’s not. And don’t let anyone tell you that it is.”

Hey @chicagotribune.com Editorial Board: Why did you describe me as a “bomb-throwing influencer”? This is wrong, inflammatory, and racist. Change it. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/07/05/e...
So far, the Democratic Socialists of America's success has been confined in large part to deep-blue city districts. Meanwhile, in suburban areas and in statewide contests establishment Democrats generally are winning against progressive challengers. Chicago saw its own version of this dynamic in March in the hotly contested and crowded race to succeed retiring Rep. Jan Schakowsky in the 9th Congressional District. The bomb-throwing influencer Kat Abughazaleh, 27, won the portions of that district in Chicago's North Side lakefront neighborhoods, but suburban votes gave savvy
Evanston Mayor Daniel Biss the win.

We have the right to record ICE agents, police, and other government officials at work in public. Read up on your rights and our tips to get ready for Saturday's No Kings protests. More info at aclu.org/kyr_record-
"KNOW YOUR RIGHTS: RECORDING FEDERAL AGENTS IN PUBLIC.
You have the right to photograph or film anything in plain view, including federal buildings and law enforcement, so long as you aren't trespassing or violating a lawful order.
If you're not under arrest, law enforcement needs a warrant to confiscate or search your device.
If you're arrested, officers still need a warrant to search your device's contents.
The government may never lawfully delete your photos or videos.
While the Constitution protects your right to record and helps you defend against unjustified retaliation or arrest, the exercise of this right can still carry risks. ACLU.""Tips for recording federal agents from ACLU organizers. Capture relevant details including agents’ names, badge numbers, documents, and any weapons they’re carrying. Capture context like the surrounding area. Record continuous video to capture the full sequence of events. Copy your photos or videos to other devices so they can’t be lost or deleted. Don’t delete the originals. Try to share your documentation with the impacted individual’s loved ones, their attorney, or local organizations working with impacted community members." Arrow pointing right."Tips to protect your digital privacy from ACLU legal experts. Turn off all biometric functions to unlock your phone, including fingerprint and face recognition. Ensure your phone has a strong password. Keep your phone in airplane mode when you don’t need to communicate with others. Turn off location services unless you’re actively using an app that needs access to your location. Communicate with others using secure, encrypted messaging apps."
