I had fun reading to some Burke Elementary students at the Chicago Public Library today. When the Obama Presidential Center opens next year, we’ll have a new branch of the library for the community to enjoy.

So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate.

Good.

Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose.

She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot.

It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

There are very few immutable rules of politics anymore.

But politicians being punished for telling voters they aren’t hurting financially when they’re hurting financially— that rule has never gone away.

Genuinely my favourite story of the day:

Trump rants all night on social media about tariffs and other things. Trying to influence his Corruption Court by telling them more lies about tariffs being national security.

Russia’s assets in the West are not hiding their traitorous plans

In Germany the only source of electricity that keeps growing and growing: renewable energy.

Solar and wind keep expanding and even though nuclear is no more coal generation has already shrunk significantly and keeps falling.

And at a univerdity in KY.

The Supreme Court keeps giving Tr*mp more and more power. Has it occurred to them that he won’t be president forever? And that in two years we may elect a Democrat? I wonder if they’re ready for a real activist president, who will have the power to, oh, add more justices and impose term limits. /

When the Trump administration is out of office, one of the main people that need to be investigated is the pardon attorney in that administration to see how Trump basically issued all his padons with no process whatsoever.

The Dems are far from perfect, but the vast majority of them seem to have the best interests of their constituents at heart, and they deserve support in an imperfect system. This cannot be said of the scum in the Rep party.

Oh right

Release the Epstein files.
Release the Jan. 6 documents.
Lock up the war criminals.
Abolish the ICE Gestapo.
Lock up the felon.

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Community Note strikes again!

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said Ukrainian, British and European officials are close to finalising a streamlined alternative to the US peace proposal to end Russia’s war that includes security guarantees for the country.

Oh, look, just like Nixon’s enemies list from his "Political Enemies Project." They're lack of original ideas is astounding. I guess they're coming for all of us now.

ICE use of Border Control agents is disgusting. Most of these agents are criminals with a badge, running free rein on innocent people. Just like the prison guards ICE has hired. They are thugs and losers.

Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

I wish Trump would shut his stupid blubbering mouth. Every time he opens it, Russia doubles down in attacking Ukraine.

Trump has turned the country once known as America into Babylon.

Hilarious… how the trumpers constantly bitch about cancel-culture… while their dear leader CANCELS AMERICA.

Or did they “suicide” the country?
I can’t tell anymore.
