CHICAGO (AP) — Storming an apartment complex by helicopter as families slept. Deploying chemical agents near a public school. Handcuffing a Chicago City Council member at a hospital.

Activists, residents and leaders say increasingly combative

Except then we would just end up with even more independently wealthy congressmen.

Pushing back works. Don’t give up!

We should all pay attention to this.

Trump is a felon, rapist, racist, fraud, and he cheats on both his wives and golf. If he is your hero, you are part of the problem. Trump is a Russian asset. He has insulted our closest global friends. Sound asleep, wearing his frumpy bright blue suit to a black tie wedding for the POPE.

Hello friends, can you help me get an added option on this platform?. It’s obvious my doing it alone is not getting the message through. If enough of us start posting this edit meme they will act on it!
Thanks ☮️💜

Tariffs are intended to further enrich the 1% at the expense of the 99%. When the 99% pay higher prices due to tariffs, they will in fact be paying the taxes that the 1% should be paying but are not.

Everything Republicans have done since 1980 has been to enrich the 1% at the expense of the 99%.

The World’s Oldest Toddler Why the “Strongman” President is Actually America’s Biggest Snowflake

"Trump, the self-styled alpha male, is in reality the weakest kind of leader – a man for whom every slight is a mortal wound, every criticism an unforgivable sin.” He's a snowflake.

Does anyone else think 25% tariffs on Canada feels like punching your best friend in the face?

I hope it’s possible but I have a sneaky suspicion they were all voted out of office. I don’t see anymore Liz Cheney’s or Adam Kinzinger’s stepping up. I don’t know if there are any more of them.

Just a note, it was the Trump administration that negotiated the USMCA in 2020, called it “a truly fair and reciprocal trade deal that will keep jobs, wealth and growth right here in America.” Now he’s willing to set fire to the US economy like a Jewish space laser hitting California.

They are controlled by republicans so there’s no chance in hell that’s going to happen.

All Politics are local.

Its time to take our public discourse public.

No GOP member of Congress deserves a moment of peace while in public. No restaurants, theaters, family outings, no social life. They want to destroy our way of life, not without massive pushback!

Like and repost if you agree!

That’s BS. We don’t have a border problem with Canada. We have never had another President unable to work with Canada. This is a crisis manufactured by Trump.

This is Democracy 2025 | The united legal frontline in the fight for our democracy Democracy 2025 is the strategic hub to protect people and their rights should the Trump-Vance administration seek to unlawfully strip away freedoms and prosperity.

Elon Musk, elected to NOTHING, has been given access by TRUMP to EVERY payment detail for EVERY government program- this means YOUR private info. is no longer secure. Includes: SS, WIC, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP.

The acting treasury secretary Scott Bessent has now given Elon musk and his team full access to our entire treasury system. This would include all payments made out by our federal government for Social Security, etc.He now has access to people’s private information and financial data!ILLEGAL!!!!!!!

Almost as if the blue states are better at money and business than the red states that believe a man that owes one of these states 500 million is good for the economy somehow.

We're surrounded by idiots y'all.

Russia shoots down innocent airliners, Ukraine feeds innocent people.

Russia uses food as a weapon, Ukraine uses food to nourish.

I second this! 🦋

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what TRUMP did

They are all getting exactly that which they deserve.

I will post this everyday for the next 4 years as a reminder that Jan 6th was a day of insurrection.

Another day, another terrible choice for the Trump administration.

It’s like watching the NFL draft only the eligible receivers have to a) be billionaires, b) be rapists or sex addicts or c) have never played football.

I disagree. Some people have valid issues that we can’t even look at evidence and have a debate without getting shut down. We should be able to respectfully discuss all topics.

He does have an affinity for TV personalities.

It's truly excruciating each time I'm reminded that Matt Gaetz may not get to be Attorney General, not because the entire Republican caucus knows—KNOWS—that he engaged in the sexual trafficking of a minor & is generally a gross abuser of women & their bodies, but because he failed to be likeable.

If there’s one project 2025 policy I want to see implemented by the Trump administration, it’s the elimination of Internet porn. It’s the one thing that would convert MAGA men.
