What happens when lawyers stop believing law and politics are different? Tomorrow, "Lawyering Without Law" returns with Episode 3. @debpearlstein.bsky.social joins @katygb.bsky.social to discuss legal ethics, the rule of law, and erosion inside the profession and its consequences for democracy.

Final ad before June 2 primary: Democracy is NOT for sale. #CA48 I refuse to let special interests and lobbyists for foreign governments buy our elections. I’m fighting to end the forever wars, pass Medicare for All, and get money out of politics once and for all. Vote by Tuesday 8pm. Thank you.

Happy Friday Beautiful People

You think you chose your political side, but did you really? The competitive system isn't just about voting; it’s programming how you see the world and locking you into a box. It’s time to realise that treating politics like a team sport is breaking our ability to think clearly.

Chicago has thousands of vacant lots, full of potential but left untouched for years. These could be homes. These could be businesses. This could be hope for a neighborhood that’s been waiting too long. It’s time for leadership that doesn’t just talk about potential but turns it into progress.
