Accountability Commission hears shocking testimony about ICE in Illinois The commission, tasked by Gov. JB Pritzker to investigate alleged misconduct by federal agents amid the Trump administration’s ‘Operation Midway Blitz’ campaign.

Despite the lies the President and his administration want to tell, you can see and hear what happened for yourself when ICE ran rogue in our state.

No one is above the law — the Illinois Accountability Commission will hold them responsible.

Anybody who says they want progress but isn't for Supreme Court reform is all talk. We aren't getting anything done without reforming the McConnell Court.

If Republicans ever came within 5 1/2 points in California they would spend the next four years trying to flip it.

If Howard Lutnick is speaking to Congress, why isn't Trump?

Literally the thing every MAGA repeated during the campaign, no more wars, price of gas, and the Epstein files, it was all bullshit.

Team Trump is incompetent. Some things are actually difficult and their solutions are always going to be fucking terrible.

Remember they let the emergency supply of PPE evaporate and their solution to that problem (rather than get supplies) was to change the website to say states are responsible??

Didn't Trump throw the Kurds under the bus in his first term?

Trump's trying to find the guy who did this.

Elon Musk? Trump?

So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for:

- Who takes over;
- Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation;
- How to defend US bases in the region;
- Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and
- How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.

Naturally.

California is pro parent, pro kids & pro family — and our policies back that up

Without helping any Americans leave. But Trump sent a military plane for a hockey team.

Rubio Today: It’s false to say I said the U.S. had to attack because Israel was going to attack. That’s not what I said.

Rubio Yesterday: We knew Israel was going to strike Iran, and that would trigger attacks on U.S. forces. If we didn’t act first, Americans would suffer higher casualties.

Rubio screwed up Sunday by saying the quiet part out loud. Then shit hit the fan - especially with MAGA. It caused problems for Netanyahu. Now he’s trying to say that what he said he didn’t really say. It’s on video. He said what he said. Now he’s lying. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Any progress from progressives this century or close to it? The politics of today aren't the politics of 1932 or 1964. If they were, they would have laws, not speeches, to point to.

DOJ lawyers misspelled “United States” in their case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, listed AG Letitia James’s address as “Brooklyn, New Jersey," and just last week, sued NJ Gov. Mikie Sherrill, but misspelled her name.

Progressives would have a stronger case if they could point to some results. The only tangible results are what they got by allying with Biden and now they call him a corporate sellout.

They also need to show they can win in constituencies that aren't 80% Democratic. Easy to be pure in NYC or SF.

SENATOR @gallego.senate.gov : “We’re all paying for this. We’re cutting Medicaid to pay for those bombs… They’re following Netanyahu— who literally just told us he’s been trying to do this for 47 years. I know. I suffered the first attempt at this in 2005.”

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."

Because he stood up for democracy when so many didn't. He's the frontrunner. You don't get 20% just from California.

Beshear refuses to condemn the war. Agreed with Republicans on taxes. Refused to criticize Netanyahu. People are fine with it because it's not about ideology or policy.

Well, we did it because of the protesters

Nukes

I mean they’re building an ICBM

We did it defensively because Iran was going to attack us

I mean Israel was gonna do it anyway so we did it too

They were gonna attack us because Israel was gonna attack them so we attacked them

Didn't Netanyahu say that about Iraq?

Beshear is fine with the war. He just wants an "explanation." Shapiro made a similar statement. This app was silent on both.

There are others. Kelly isn't sure if he will vote against the war.

But it's not Newsom so crickets.
