Trump isn't letting a Supreme Court decision deter him. Now he's enacted a 15% worldwide tariff, using the 1974 Trade Act. Justice Brett Kavanaugh gave Trump a roadmap for imposing tariffs under different statutes. In response, Trump called Kavanaugh "my new hero.” justthenews.com/government/c...

In a 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court determined that Trump's tariffs invoked using the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) are illegal because he exceeded his authority. Only Congress can impose tariffs; the president does not have the right to do so.

Members of the House Judiciary Committee held a hearing to get answers from Atty Gen Pam Bondi about the Epstein files. Instead, Bondi answered Dem’s questions w/ questions & hurled insults at them that she read from a prepared burn book & accidentally revealed that DOJ has been spying on Congress.

Congress must vote to approve Department of Homeland Security funding by Feb 13th, including funding for ICE & Border Patrol. Please contact members of Congress now & demand they vote no on any DHS funding until changes have been made to protect us from immigration enforcement's reign of terror.

Trump’s withdrawal of the US from the World Health Organization (WHO) has put all of us at risk. To protect its residents, Illinois has joined WHO & will now be directly connected to global alerts, the expertise of public health networks, & the availability of international response assistance.

Earlier today Trump chose to commemorate the 5th anniversary of January 6th by having a new page about the event added to the official White House website. It's filled with hateful lies about what really happened, and it denies Trump's culpability by placing the blame on Democrats

Breaking news: Santa's naughty list has been released. We are happy to report that Santa didn't give any presents to Trump, not even a lump of coal, because Santa knows that Trump likes coal.

Attention Marco Rubio: There’s no such thing as a β€œwoke” typeface. Accessibility was the only goal. In 2023, the State Department switched to Calibri because studies indicated that it was easier to read for people who have visual impairments.

Indiana GOP rejects Trump’s map in major blow to his gerrymandering push The GOP-controlled state Senate voted down a bill that would have wiped out Indiana’s two Democratic-held seats in the House.

In spite of Trump's public shaming & threats of withheld funds, Republican senators in Indiana dealt him a huge political blow by defeating his demand that they redraw their state’s congressional map, which would have wiped out Indiana’s 2 Dem House seats.

You can make a difference! Participate in the "We Ain't Buying It" nationwide boycott from Nov 27th through Dec 1st. Don't shop at Target, Home Depot, or Amazon because of their cooperation and assistance with the Trump administration's harmful actions. Shop at small, local businesses instead.

President Trump's deployment of National Guard in Illinois cost taxpayers nearly $20M: Sen. Durbin There are new details Friday about some of the costs associated with the controversial immigration enforcement effort in Chicago.

The Trump administration needlessly sending troops into Illinois and elsewhere creates chaos and fear and causes local businesses to lose customers. It is also expensive. All of us will have to pay for these unnecessary deployments.

Seven Democrat senators and one Independent voted to advance the Republican budget to the Senate. ACA health insurance subsidies were not included in their negotiations. They betrayed Americans who begged them to continue voting no. Millions will now become uninsured.

Finally, some good news! Democrats win in Tuesday's elections as voters reject Trump's political agenda. Could this be the start of a blue wave?

Trump's been court ordered to release SNAP funding but it's now evident that he has no intention of doing so. He posted today on his Truth Social page that he's not releasing funding until "Radical Left Democrats" pass his budget [that will cause millions of Americans to lose their health insurance]

USDA warning to grocers deepens SNAP crisis as Trump defies court orders | NationofChange

As SNAP benefits remain paused some grocery stores offered discounts to recipients. Trump's administration stopped this by twisting the intent of SNAP's equal treatment price gouging rule that protects recipients. Discounts were never the intent of the rule.

ACA insurance enrollment began yesterday. Enrollees are shocked at the huge increases in their premiums due to the Trump administration's termination of their healthcare subsidies. Millions of people will lose their health insurance because they can't afford it.

Concerned for children's safety, IL's gov asked Kristi Noem to pause immigration crackdowns over Halloween. Instead Federal agents chased people through front yards, drove SUVs onto sidewalks & used chemical agents on furious residents in Chicago & northern suburbs.

Bannon Claims β€˜There Is a Plan’ for Trump to Run for a Third Term

Steve Bannon, far right influencer & Trump's former White House chief strategist, claims there's a plan for Trump to run for a 3rd term. Our Constitution states presidents can't serve more than 2 terms, but Trump doesn't seem to care about Constitutional violations.
