Illinois is launching a first-of-its-kind legal hotline for LGBTQ+ individuals — Illinois Pride Connect.

As the only state in the nation that will provide free legal advice to protect the LGBTQ+ community, we'll help fight ignorance with information and cruelty with compassion.

Elon Musk has said it loud and clear: He wants to gut Social Security. In December 2024 alone:

👉 51.8M retired workers relied on benefits
👉 7.2M disabled workers depended on support
👉 5.8M survivors—widows, children, & parents—counted on it after loss

Social Security is a lifeline, not a luxury.

Marine Le Pen timidly distances herself from Donald Trump After several weeks of silence, or even enthusiasm, regarding the actions of the new US president, Le Pen condemned the 'brutality' of the freezing of US aid to Ukraine.

Europe Gets Serious About Defense Thanks to Trump’s Retreat The U.S. president has unified Europe like few since Charlemagne. Now comes the hard part.

The Trump administration’s sharp turn away from Kyiv and toward Moscow might have just sent European leaders into a frenzy of rearmament.

Like many members of Congress who walked out on tonight's address, we've had enough as well. Let's preserve our mental health and rest tonight so we can rise up tomorrow and keep pushing forward.

Two people disrespected the United States in the Oval Office today: President Trump and Vice President Vance.

One person spoke in the best of American tradition: President Zelensky.

People may be looking to the federal courts, and ultimately the Supreme Court, to halt the massive destruction caused by Elon Musk and Donald Trump. But the reality is that the Republican Justices on the Supreme Court, through a series of decisions on campaign finance and executive power, laid the groundwork for much of the chaos of the Trump Administration. In fact, today’s mess is at least 15 years in the making.

Good morning ppl! If you remember history, the blitzkrieg failed because they out ran themselves and could not backfill the issues it created. Doge’s “dumbkrieg” is having the same issues. We are beating those fucks down! And yes, I’m coining the word Dumbkrieg. Fucking use it. Mock their asses!
