Governor Pritzker says the real reason the psycho is starting to put troops in cities is because he wants to take control of upcoming elections.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

On the whole Al Green thing, I want to see more of that, not less. The Democratic Party needs to be as viscerally pissed off about the rape of American democracy as I am. And that's the only way I can describe it.

DOGE targets child support database full of income data The U.S. DOGE Service’s attempt to access a federal database with sensitive information has provoked yet another internal disagreement.

“This is private, confidential data including Social Security numbers and earnings of virtually all people in the country...”

"Federal law restricts access 'to authorized persons and... authorized purposes' such as child support enforcement..."

The best way to confront a bully about the misinformation he is spreading is to confront him in front of everyone. Macron just did that.

Dozens of Clinical Trials Have Been Frozen in Response to Trump’s USAID Order The stop-work order on U.S.A.I.D.-funded research has left thousands of people with experimental drugs and devices in their bodies, with no access to monitoring or care.

This is evil.

Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social

Let's get them more followers and engagement than other platforms and let health science accounts find a home

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.

Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.

Gotta love the British press.

This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

Political cartoonists are holding back right now less than just about anyone

Make it make sense.

The Capitol with a circus tent around it

I see they’re getting the Capitol ready for tomorrow’s inauguration ceremony of Felon47🎪🤡

What a shame. All that wasted money trump supporters spent to travel to the Capitol for the inauguration. Think of how many eggs they could have bought.

Back. To. Back.

Well done RollingStone for reporting it accurately.

Presenting Pete Hegseth, plunging into a dunk tank full of champagne. Swigging champs through his gig on Fox. Performing for his kids, and all America, drunk as a skunk.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is Trump’s nominee to lead DOD.

Hegseth’s history of intoxication is highly alarming.

Hegseth…

“We The People” can do better than this shit

Let us teach our children compassion, empathy, and kindness.

Let it begin at home.

Frost: Let's be honest about DOGE and this whole thing, it's a joke. Two billionaires who are cosplaying as government officials..

The Secretary of Defense is too important a job for someone with Pete Hegseth’s sick personality, lack of experience and zero qualifications. He’s a danger to the nation.
