The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

So utterly corrupt and outrageous. A must read.

So, talking about do-nothing Dems who gave into the powerful hedge fund managers and tech bros means you’ll distinguish yourself, and close carried interest loopholes in Illinois, Pass the digital tax in Illinois, and raise billions to fund our schools, healthcare for immigrants, and more? 🙌🏾

So here for Chicago’s False Spring #1 🦋

TONIGHT! CM Punk comes to the ring on Raw with a Chicago Teachers Union shirt. Given former WWE CEO Linda McMahon’s new Trump gig destroying the dept of ed, given her anti-union past, given the CTU’s history defending public schools, this is 🔥. ‘CM’ stands for “Chicago Made” and that’s real af.
