Fuck the University of Michigan for having plain clothes security officers, harassing pro-palestinian students.

Pete Hegseth Is Running Out of Excuses A set of scandals and turnover at the Pentagon undermine the already flimsy case for his leadership.

DUI Hegseth has got to go!

Reminder: no matter how many times Republicans say otherwise, there is *no way* they can pay for their proposed tax cuts without gutting Medicaid and other programs that millions of people rely on.

Don't believe their lies for a second.

Congressman Al Green will be in attendance at the Hands Off protest and will share a special message around 1:30 p.m. EST. #Handsoff handsoff2025.com/livestream

Dictators of all stripes hate solidarity. They’d prefer that we cower alone. They want us to feel powerless.

This is why I encourage you to participate in the peaceful demonstrations planned for today across America. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/april-5-hands-off-our-healthcare

In Mexico, Gov. JB Pritzker positions Illinois as a ‘stable and reliable trade partner’ amid Trump tariffs At close of trade mission to Mexico, Gov. JB Pritzker positions Illinois as a ‘stable and reliable trade partner’ amid President Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Illinois will not waver in fostering a relationship of shared growth and opportunity for Illinois and Mexico.

A sad day, trespassers have stolen a wind chime and the shepard's hook from which it hung.

The richest guy in the world is handing out million dollar checks in order to win a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat and elect an anti-choice judge. We MUST overturn Citizens United and move to public funding of elections." Below the post, there is an image of Elon Musk holding a large check made out to "America PAC" for "Nicholas Jacobs" in the amount of $1,000,000, signed by Elon Musk.

Money corrupts, and money in politics corrupts completely.

Go, Cory, go! Nearly 18 hours in and @booker.senate.gov is holding the Senate Floor to highlight the harms this Administration and Elon Musk are having on the American people.

You are an American Hero, Senator! And we are right here with you! 💪

WATCH: Cory Booker holds the floor of the Senate for 15+ hours in protest of Republicans' harmful policies: "I know of only one way to do this—and I'm trying to do this myself—is to do things differently. To stand up, to speak up, to act like this is not normal in our country."

Strength to Senator Booker!

Disruption is all they seem to understand—so that’s exactly what they’re getting. For 14 hours, @booker.senate.gov has been on the Senate floor, speaking truth within the rules. This cannot be business as usual when our democracy’s on the line. Thank you, senator.

The image is a screenshot of a social media post by Aaron Rupar (@atrupar ), posted 12 hours ago. The post reads: "Peter Navarro goes full Orwell on Fox News Sunday: 'The message is that tariffs are tax cuts.'" Below the post, there is a Fox News broadcast graphic with the headline: "NAVARRO ON IMPACT OF TRUMP TARIFFS ON U.S. CONSUMERS." The broadcast is labeled as "FOX NEWS SUNDAY WITH SHANNON BREAM" and is marked as "EXCLUSIVE." The background features an image of the U.S. Capitol building.

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Tariffs are tax cuts.

He said himself once, his WIFE even sleeps in a separate bedroom.

The image is a screenshot of a post on X by a user named Mrs. Betty Bowers (@mrsbettybowers .bsky.social). The post reads: "I learned this week that you can put our troops’ lives in danger, compromise our national security, and violate the Espionage Act. And the government will do nothing. But if you write an editorial for your school newspaper that Trump doesn’t like, you will be abducted on the street and disappear."

This is horrifyingly correct.

Pete Hegseth is a f*cking liar. This is so clearly classified info he recklessly leaked that could’ve gotten our pilots killed.

He needs to resign in disgrace immediately.

Supreme Court upholds Biden regulations on 'ghost gun' kits The decision means that the federal government can regulate the easily obtainable gun parts in the same way as firearms purchased from specialist stores.

Y’all love talking about the 2nd Amendment, but let me remind you: even that has limits. Today, the Supreme Court upheld common sense regulations on ghost guns—and that’s a win for public safety.

This is why idiots, who have not earned their way into the most powerful positions in our government, should not have access to classified information, much less the ability to distribute it.

We have moved from governing by tweet to war by text. Absolutely unfathomable.

A screenshot of a post on X by John Pavlovitz (@johnpavlov ..., 20h ago): "I’ve started to realize that Anne Frank and her family wouldn’t have been safe around a lot of people I know and loved and once respected. That’s not something you get over." The account has a blue checkmark. Pavlovitz's profile picture shows a person in a plaid shirt.

We must only learn from history, we must not repeat its mistakes.

Donald Trump is no friend to those in agriculture.

Along with an idiotic trade war, he's begun a slash-and-burn campaign to cut funding that our farmers depend on.

My fellow Illinoisans, it's time for all of us to stand up.
