This is the facility that I and many others have been protesting. We’ve been hit, thrown, gassed, and shot with pepper bullets but none of that holds a candle to what is being done to people *in* the actual facility.

Read this thread. Don’t look away. Keep your eyes and the pressure on Broadview.

Chuck Schumer Is Not Fit to Lead the Democratic Party - The American Prospect The Senate leader doesn’t just betray his own party, he’s also terrible at leading it. In Trump’s second term, facing a full-on authoritarian attack on America’s democracy and constitutional structure...

Chuck Schumer's inability to say whether he voted for the Democratic nominee in a general election in his city is the final straw for @ryanlcooper.com.

Okay, so I did it. In honor of Sandwich Guy, on what should be the last day of his trial, I figured out the chords. And so, with apologies to the late and great Bob Marley, I banged out this quick and (very) rough rendition of "I Threw the Sandwich." 🀣

Imagine falling for this shit. The money is all there and if you think he'll actually fund SNAP, you're crazy. Dems, he's giving you a layup on messaging here. Trump says he HAS the money but is withholding it from American citizens because of politics. These are YOUR CONSTITUENTS.

To my new political party, my fellow Dems: Quit fucking complaining, quit making excuses, quit playing by some polite old rule book. My former political party is ruthlessly playing to win. They don’t give a damn about β€œnorms.” So Dems, fuck the norms. It’s time to fight. It’s time to fucking fight.

Only a broken nation, with a broken political system, could put this person in power. Only a populace - the people who voted for him AND the people who didn’t - divided, afraid, uninformed, and lacking in human understanding & empathy could put this person in power.

Governor JB Pritzker today signed Executive Order 2025-06 to establish the Illinois Accountability Commission (IAC), an independent board tasked with capturing and creating a public record of the conduct of federal law enforcement agents and recommending actions to hold the federal government accountable as they continue conducting military-style operations in Chicago, collar counties, and other areas throughout the state.

Donald Trump's masked agents believe that their actions are immune from investigation or accountability β€” they're not.

I've signed an Executive Order today establishing the Illinois Accountability Commission to create a public record and capture the impact on our communities.

Americans don't like being defrauded, particularly by the rich and powerful. Indeed, Trump came to power claiming he would oppose such "scams"
Trump's open, notorious and contemptuous plan to steal money directly out of the U.S. Treasury is not just a corrupt, it's a political gift to the opposition

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americansβ€”Americans, not illegalβ€”Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.

And the president’s like, β€œWe don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”

Did you mention that Trump was reaching out when he wasn't president to sabotage the deal? My guess is no.

Heard about this earlier, and my jaw didn’t drop. You know who else isn’t surprised? Pretty much every Republican.

As someone who’s been a frequent target, none of this shocks me. I don’t expect real consequences from the right because I doubt today is the first day they heard about it.

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

Kat Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should have consequences. I think she should be tried at The Hague... It is not normal to have masked men repel down from helicopters into apartment buildings, to arrest families in the middle of the night.

IF ANY CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY SIGNS THIS RADICAL AGREEMENT, THEY'LL LOSE BILLIONS IN STATE FUNDING β€” INCLUDING CAL GRANTS β€” INSTANTLY.

CALIFORNIA WILL NOT BANKROLL SCHOOLS THAT SELL OUT THEIR STUDENTS, PROFESSORS, RESEARCHERS, AND SURRENDER ACADEMIC FREEDOM.

I really want to reenact the magic of 2006 when the Tigers beat the Yankees at Comerica to win the ALDS on the same day Michigan curb-stomped MSU at home.

The thing that bothers me so much is not the β€œwe have to enforce our borders and laws.” We do.

It’s the giddy joy and celebration they have at the misery of people far less fortunate.

But I want to say: First class reporting here. Seeking comments from state GOP leaders, pushing for numbers, verifying the units involved.
Outstanding work exactly when Chicago and the rest of us desperately need it.

Good morning.

The government is shut down because Trump wants to act like a king and steal from you.

Democrats have no obligation to support a budget that funds the destruction of our democracy - and DOUBLES health premiums to fund a tax cut for billionaires.

This is a VERY well crafted lawsuit.
1) Plaintiff is natural born.
2) He was detained 2X in a fast-growing part of Alabama, not in a city that Brett Kavanaugh could be easily duped into believing was all migrants.
3) Unwarranted detentions were on private property.
4) He showed Real ID both times.
