Are you fucking kidding me Maine please do not do this.

After Pritzker and Newsom threatened to leave the NGA, the Republican Chair breaks with Trump. Pressure works. Keep it up!

Part of what makes these guys so offensive is that they are not struggling!

All the support to my boys ✊✊✊

I’ll tell you what when the shoe was on the other foot-that is when there were conservative popes-we certainly were told to suck it up.

Man those are rookie numbers compared to her boss.

This is terrifying!

ICE breaks into this woman’s car in the pick-up line at West Loop Elementary school in Chicago and detains her before she can pick her kids up from school. (They were eventually let go after showing their documents)

This is Trump’s America.

I for one, try very hard not to take United (which used to be my primary airline) for just what you described. I have flown twice in the past 6 months, most basic economy and on all four flights w/3 ppl on two fights & two on the others did NOT pay for seating and we all sat together all flights.

Could the Supreme Court still apply different rules to a Democratic president? Of course. You don't need to remind me of that. But a lightning-fast blitz that repurposes Trump's new powers for good stands the best chance of standing up in court. Democrats need to start thinking about this right now.

This is why I think the next Democratic president needs to use the EXACT tools that SCOTUS has handed Trump. Don't leave room for any distinctions.

Impound funds for deportation. Give ICE the USAID treatment. Refuse to collect government-backed debt. Purge MAGA loyalists from the executive branch.

I feel like a bad coach can make a team a lot worse but even a really great coach can only take a team with low talent so far.

section of text from South Side Weekly's coverage, which says: "The building was purchased by Wisconsin-based investor Trinity Flood in January 2020, according to Cook County records. On October 1, the day after the raid, a judge reviewed an emergency motion from Wells Fargo seeking to appoint Matthew Tarshis of Frontline Real Estate Partners as the property’s receiver. Flood purchased three multifamily properties in South Shore in 2020. The neighborhood, which had the highest number of eviction filings in Chicago from 2015-2019 according to the Law Center for Better Housing, has seen a rise in outside real estate investors since the 2017 announcement of the Obama Presidential Center’s construction in the neighboring Jackson Park. Wells Fargo Bank foreclosed on the building in mid-2024, bringing a $27 million lawsuit against Flood for missed loan payments. In late 2024, the City began closing its largest migrant shelters and, through state funding assistance distributed via Catholic Charities and moving support from New Life Church, relocated many families to buildings such as this one."

We know more about the massive military-style raid on a Chicago housing complex thanks to the reporting of @southsideweekly.bsky.social, @blockclubchi.bsky.social, and neighborhood resident Eboni Watson who chronicled the event. Among the emerging questions: what's real estate's role in this?

yup, he’s absolutely correct here

Michigan Avenue right now.

It's clear by now that the Democrats won't press this case as aggressively as it needs to be pressed, and the media won't do that unless they have Democrats' quotes to use as a springboard either.

They won't do this work, so it's even more important that we circulate these stories ourselves.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Any Democrat running for president has to explain how they are going to deal with SCOTUS. Like how to make them irrelevant.

Yep thank you! Gone beast mode 3x

Don’t worry, the Blue Jays are kicking their ass

The reality is there are a lot of people involved in here. Some of it is a doctor some of it is insurance and some of it is the hospital- there’s plenty of blame to go around. It’s important that people recognize providers are definitely part of the problem.

I too, am a big fan of “Would”

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

We’re going to have a lot of work to do identifying and punishing every single one of these criminal thugs with the full force of the law.

I am also a Greg Olsen fan. ❤️

Last time she ran as a pro-Trump Democrat, got a truly amazing amount of money in contributions, burned through it all and lost by 20 points anyway. Big nope!

Please go on…

This really makes it sound like a Border Patrol agent tried to kill an anti-ICE activist in Chicago and DHS lied to cover for him

This is about how few lawyers they have right?

I do agree with you, but honestly, I didn’t think things would be as crazy as they are.

Back in the land of reality, here's what one of the Black people whose home was smashed into during the apartment raid last week said about his Venezuelan neighbors: "They were cool people."

Mr. Jones, a U.S. citizen, was dragged out in handcuffs and held outside for hours.
