Trump administration dismantles US ability to fight climate change; environmentalists vow to appeal
In the Midwest, climate change is fueling extreme heat, toxic algal blooms in the Great Lakes and tornadoes across Illinois.
βThis is a really profound and utter rejection of decades of scientific consensus. It shows a willingness to sacrifice the lives of Americans to boost the profits of the oil industry.β

Graphic featuring a quote from Kelly Cassidy endorsing Fritz Kaegi for Cook County Assessor, with their photos and campaign logo
Kelly is one of the strongest voices for progressive change in Illinois. It means a great deal to earn her endorsement as a friend and a fellow fighter for fairness and meaningful property tax reform that delivers relief to homeowners and seniors. Thanks, @kmcchicago.bsky.social!

Want to know the real reason property tax bills went up in Cook County? Corporate tax breaks.
Companies hire property tax lawyers who donate to county politicians, then those politicians give BIG tax breaks to commercial properties. Itβs pay-to-play.
They get rich, you pay more.

Black history centennial channels angst over anti-DEI climate into education, free resources
Despite proclaiming last February as National Black History Month, President Donald Trump's second term has been marked by what critics say are attacks on Black history in the United States.
Given Trumpβs hostility to Black history and diversity, equity & inclusion, itβs more important than ever to honor & amplify Black History Month. Letβs celebrate the achievements and contributions of Black Americans, plus remember our nationβs sad history of slavery, lynching, and segregation.

This SNL skit starring Ashley Padilla as a MAGA mom who tells her family she may have changed her mind about Trump is hysterical. Itβs hard not to laugh when she says, she realizes that Trump βmayβ not be good for the country, & that he βmayβnot have been totally truthful.

There is no condemnation of ICE or DHS in this letter. Itβs a vague and meaningless PR stunt, with βfine people on both sidesβ rhetoric. The βreal solutionβ - and only solution - is ICE out of Minnesota.

Not one more dollar for ICE terror in our communities.
Democrats in the Senate must hold the line and STOP DHS's funding. Not one vote.
In the House, I call on my colleagues to move past statements & cosponsor my Melt ICE Act to cripple DHSβs enforcement & return dollars to our communities.

Every video of ICE killing Alex Petti today clearly shows it was cold-blooded murder.
Same for EVERY video of ICE murdering Renee Good.
There are ZERO videos produced by ICE, Border Patrol,
FOX News, Trump, or any MAGA that show an angle or frame to support their lies justifying the executions.

Department of Justice sues Pritzker, Raoul over law barring federal immigration actions at courthouses
The law bars immigration enforcement from taking place inside or within 1,000 feet of state courthouses. The federal government claims states can't dictate where federal agents make arrests.
βThe Trump Administrationβs masked agents arenβt targeting the βworst of the worstβ - theyβre harassing & detaining law-abiding U.S. citizens and Black and Brown people at day cares, hospitals & courthouses. Unlike the Trump Administration, Illinois is protecting Constitutional rights in our state.β
