I love my job! Please support Illinois Sierra Club We work hard for communities and the planet!

Trump is holding all the nation’s hospitals and vital services hostage to seize power from Congress and hand it over to billionaires. We must state the truth: this is a constitutional crisis. It’s a massive, illegal power grab that the House and Senate have a sworn duty to stop.

This is so messed up. He is a permanent resident.

Could go further - since at least post-George Floyd the Trump admin has been interested in the limits of its power to criminalize protest. Detaining pro-Palestinian protestors is one step they can get away with without Democrats or many in media pushing back. It won’t end there.

Nothing justifies disappearing a person. History is riddled with those who thought their proximity to power protected them until it didn’t. Those justifying Khalil’s disappearance are traitors to our country. I don’t say this lightly, and I mean it sincerely.

The lawyer for Mahmoud Khalil, at today's hearing, said that she has been unable to speak to her client once since his detention. Does any of this sound like the America you were taught about growing up? A legal permanent resident kept incommunicado with no charges specifically

the abhorrent opinions in question:

Last week, I was expelled from Columbia University for protesting the U.S.-backed genocide in Gaza. As president of Student Workers of Columbia , Columbia’s student workers union, I was also fired from my job. The Trump administration is pushing their narrative. Here’s the real story. 🧵

Rumeysa was kidnapped in plain sight & sent to Louisiana to be locked in the same detention center Mahmoud Khalil was sent to. She's a peaceful protestor, grad student, & my constituent who has a right to free speech & due process. Now she's a political prisoner. Free her now.

We’re abducting students for speaking out against this. Unreal.

Ahh… We have hit the disappearing Union leaders phase of authoritarianism.

My statement on the Trump administration's illegal military actions and the wars that must end.

.Zohran Kwame Mamdani decisively won the Democratic nomination. He is a loving son and husband, and community organizer who puts the people first. The vile, Islamophobic attacks on him are disgusting and the normalization of anti-Muslim hate is dangerous.

🚨 BREAKING: ICE secretly deported Luis Leon, an 82-year-old torture survivor and U.S. legal resident of nearly 40 years, after he walked into an immigration office to replace a lost green card. Instead of processing the request, ICE handcuffed him, detained his wife for 10

The possibility of Louis Sullivan’s Chicago Stock Exchange trading room being demolished for expansion of the art institute, after being salvaged from the demolition of the original building, is quite alarming.
