chicago.suntimes.com/news/2025/10... So damn proud that my former organization @icirr.bsky.social is standing up for all the residents of Chicago & across Illinois as ICE runs rampant in its violent & abusive raids. Citizens standing up for our friends & neighbors who are threatened everyday! BASTA!

For a few hours of anti-fascist sanity watch the brilliant new movie #Onebattleafteranother— One Battle after Another.

So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)

As the grandson of a German professor of European history, Dietrich Gerhard, who fled to U.S.A. in 1935 I can attest to the long-term impact on German academia. After WWll he maintained a dual position between Wash U & Univ. Koln, but most of his refugee peers never worked again in postwar Germany.

“This is going to be great television,” Donald Trump remarked at the end of his schoolyard takedown of Zelensky. Sure. And the captain of the Titanic probably assured his passengers as the boat was sinking that this would make a great movie some day.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.
