I live in a place where the Teslas are plentiful and Trump flags proudly fly, Where the trucks are all lifted and it makes me wanna cry. Married…with children, Religious but in a good way.

John Fetterman’s a Republican in a hoodie. 16 votes with the GOP. Shorts, sweatshirt, performative “regular guy” act. He’s playing the game. Say hi to Trump—and release the Epstein files while you’re at it. #Fetterman #CA32 #AhujaCongress2026

To recap, among young voters…

Prop 50: +58
Sherril: +37
Spanberger: +40
Mamdani: +61

I better see the media start retracting some of those stories saying Gen Z is the most conservative generation.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

Frog put the cookies in a box. “There,” he said. “Now we will not eat any more cookies.”

“But we can open the box,” said Toad.

“That is true,” said Frog.

Not very hot take (?): "Speed traps" are tacit acknowledgement by law enforcement and the public that road design encourages higher speeds.

That's why these law enforcement actions are usually done at certain locations, not randomly.

Defend Kat Against Unjust Charges Show your support with a contribution.

I’m the first congressional candidate to be indicted under the second Trump administration.

But if things keep going the way they are, I won’t be the last.

That’s why I need to fight these charges with everything we’ve got. Help us do that here: katforillinois.com/legal

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us.

And a special thank you to Illinois elected officials — including many of my opponents — who have condemned this political prosecution by the Trump administration:

its so weird to me that people who think they're going to heaven when they die are currently going around saying the absolute most nasty, despicable, cruel things. Like what do you even think you're going to do in heaven, keep talking about how people need to get a job?

Pritzker: "Imagine it. Children who woke up that morning, expectant with joy & excitement to put on their costumes & celebrate with their neighbors in what they thought was a safe place at their homes. Armed, masked agents, terrorizing innocent people, especially children, is unconscionable."

“Hurry!” said Frog. “We will run and catch it.”

“No!” shouted Toad. “I cannot do that.”

“Why not?” asked Frog.

“Because,” wailed Toad, “running after my list in not one of the things that I wrote on my list of things to do!”

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Remember that ceasefire everyone praised Trump for securing between Israel & Gaza?

Netanyahu just massacred 104 Palestinian civilians, including 46 children, on the mere accusation that Hamas handed over the 'wrong' corpse

HE MASSACRED 46 CHILDREN & I doubt you've heard one media outlet mention it

On Jan 6, MAGA insurrectionists smeared feces on the halls of Congress.

Today, the MAGA cult leader Donald Trump posted an AI generated video of him smearing feces on peaceful protestors.

Trump is not an aberration of modern day conservatism—he’s a manifestation of it.

From all of the stuff you’re heard today, THIS is the key phrase:

Trump: If Hamas rejects the deal which is always possible, as you know Bibi, you'll have our full backing to do what you got to do.
