If the National Governors Association chooses to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.
We should be standing as one against the idea that Donald Trump can call up the National Guard against our will.

A picture of the Guard arriving in Illinois from WSJ. The headline reads: "Local Politicians Defiant as National Guard Gathers Outside Chicago"
When I become America's benevolent dictator, I'm going to impose a tax on every [mis]use of the word "defiant" in news articles and give the money to independent journalism outlets.

I think the better question would have been:
"Pamela Jo, as a fellow taker of bribes, in your case from Donald Trump to shut down your Florida AG investigation of Trump University's consumer fraud, did you approve the shutting down of the bribery investigation into Homan?"

Trumpβs nominee to be the Armyβs lawyer is confused about the First Amendment.
Independent journalists must be free to report the facts without fear of retaliation.
If we're sending troops to war under false pretenses, Americans have a right to know.

While Trump escalates his attacks on our freedoms with occupations of our cities and secret police forces terrorizing our communities, normal everyday people across the nation are showing up every single day with courage and defiance.

Because he thinks his campaign to repress free speech will keep us quiet.
But he's wrong. We are fighting back.
We start fighting back NOW.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just signed an order making city property off-limits to ICE. As federal troops deploy to Chicago, this is a bold stand for accountability and human rights. No city should ever be turned into a battleground for political power.
