IQ 45 has now threatened to send troops to Chicago. I remember when he tried to have a campaign rally here. It did not go well for him. This statement if from my Illinois state representative.

It would be laughable in another time. Now it's ludicrous, sad, disgusting, and pathetic!

So Barack Obama rigged the 2016 election for His Magasty to win, but the 2020 election for Biden to win, but only the presidency, not any important House or Senate seats that Dems lost, and then the Dems just decided not to rig 2024. Gotcha.

E. Jean Carroll just beat Donald Trump in court. Again. Imagine if the Republicans in Congress had even 1/100th of E. Jean Carroll's courage.
But alas...

A Michael Adder tweet posting one of his cartoons. It shows Trump sitting in a tank with a "Salute to America" sign on the side. The gun of the tang is flaccid.

What can he possibly be thinking? It just seems cruelty is his agenda and it doesn't matter to whom it's directed.

Outside of the Governor's mansion in Illinois today. ICE Barbie was supposed to be there to berate us for our sanctuary status. But, due to protesters, she chose elsewhere. Our Sec of State slowed up instead to encourage protesters and to reiterate that Illinois stands strong against Trump policies.

The CFPB Has Been Gutted The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau terminated the positions of 1,406 employees at the congressionally mandated agency.

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.

By defying the Supreme Courtโ€™s order to return Abrego Garcia from El Salvador, Trump is laying the groundwork to do the same to U.S. citizens.

Now is the time to speak out โ€” before there is no one left to speak.

We are on a path towards dictatorship.

And also Florida... let's put it into perspective... In November those districts went for Trump +30, to shrink that to +10 in a matter of 4 months, great job Florida dems! Change is incremental. We must keep our foot on the gas! ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ–ค
