ICYMI — @govpritzker.illinois.gov turns the tables on @laurenboebert: “I find it hard to believe you’re lecturing us about peaceful protests. Look what happened January 6th.”

Authoritarianism Isn’t Coming. It’s Here. Senator Padilla got cuffed for asking questions. The regime wants you to know you’re next.

Let’s stop pretending we’re living through anything resembling normal. Let’s bury the lie that the Rep. Party is a political movement. It’s not. It’s a radicalized cult of personality wrapped in the American flag & soaked in gasoline, waiting for the next match.

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period.

This shit is out of control.

Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla.

This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

Proud Boys with badges.

It's a truly jarring split screen that Kristi Noem's goons attacking Sen Padilla happened at almost the exact same time as 16 Dem senators crossed lines to vote with the GOP to invoke cloture on the crypto bill, forfeiting any leverage.

Dems need to act like an opposition.

Kennedy Removes All C.D.C. Vaccine Panel Experts

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

"Just one more thing, sir. Since the election, you've announced 12 projects in foreign countries: the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, India, Qatar, & Oman. You got a $400 million jet, sold meme coins, $600 sneakers, Chinese bibles, & hats. How is any of this making America great?"

Now comes the part where House Republicans who already voted for the “abomination” say how much they respect Musk and agree with what he said, then the part where Senate Republicans say how much they respect Musk and agree with what he said before they end up voting for it too.

Opinion | This journalist was the real hero behind Joe McCarthy’s takedown Drew Pearson rebuked Sen. Joseph McCarthy early and often. History gives him little credit for it.

WASH POST lays out how DOGE is making things less efficient and harder in every way, down to the most basic purchases and projects: “New procedures and requirements are slowing down federal agencies” www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

In fairness, the guy running the Defense Department doesn't know anything about running a Defense Department.

And the woman running the Department of Justice knows nothing about justice.

And the person running Homeland Security only knows about dressing up in cute little costumes.

It's a theme.

Tulsa announces reparations for the 1921 ‘Black Wall Street’ massacre It took decades of research by historians and journalists — and reports by state and federal commissions — to uncover the violence that claimed more than 300 Black lives.

The city of Tulsa, home to one of the most horrifying racial-terror massacres in U.S. history and the people who tried to cover it up, has announced a $105 million reparations package.
