No one gives a fuck.

Threatening to bomb civilian populations and areas is a war crime.

One of us is against a genocide, the other funds it.

The question you have to ask yourself is who do I want representing me in Congress?

Early voting is underway in Illinois. Be sure to cast your vote by March 17th.

3 out of 4 democratic voters support abolishing ICE and a majority of Americans support abolishing ice as well.

I’m proud to take the pledge to commit to abolishing and prosecuting ICE. I urge all my fellow candidates and elected officials to take the same pledge.

A graphic questioning Illinois Representative Robin Kelly's commitment to impeachment. Text reads: "Will she have the courage to vote for CONVICTION if she wins the Senate seat? Will she use Rule IX. Robin Kelly is all talk and no action." Below, the Citizens' Impeachment and Courage Candidate branding appears with "UNITED FOR DEMOCRACY."

ALL TALK. NO ACTION. πŸ“£ Constituents of IL-02 deserve ACTION, not press releases or social media posts.

Robin Kelly says she’s impeaching Kristi Noem, but the articles of impeachment are sitting in the Judiciary Committee with no vote.

while I was canvassing today for Drake I saw so many wonderful multifamily houses today that are all not allowed to be built new

there are 15 homes here and none of them are currently allowed per zoning

#EarlyVoting starts TODAY in all 50 Wards and the suburbs, and while the world is a dumpster fire and the Federal government is the worst, we've got a chance to fight back at the polls between now and the 17th. Whether you're in the City, in the suburbs, or in our new readership hotspot in Aurora...

This is exactly why @quigley.house.gov should not be running for two offices at the same time. Step aside, Mike, and let someone who will actually do the job sitting that seat.

Has anyone seen or heard from @quigley.house.gov? Is he too busy fundraising for mayor?

Hey Mike, here’s what you missed. Trump bombed a school in Iran, killing at least 80 school children with funding from a defense budget you voted for.

Any comment?

Congress must act immediately and pass the war powers resolution to prevent any further attacks. And they must draft articles of impeachment for Donald Trump, JD, Vance, Marco Rubio, and Pete Hegseth for the war crimes that they’ve committed.

Donald Trump bombed a school in the middle of the day full of children. Another war crime committed by this administration in broad daylight.

And our current congressman……crickets. Not a single fucking word.

Hey @chicagotribune.com, I’d say this is a little more than a β€œsoft launch” for mayor.

@quigley.house.gov - the people of this district deserve a full-time Congressman, not someone planning to abandon the job after 2 months. Do what’s right and end your bid for reelection.

Hey Mike, you love to talk about your experience but it only matters if you’re actually good at it. And considering that you’ve voted to restrict access to abortion & reproductive services, funded a genocide, and have been unable to fulfill a single campaign promise, the jury has reached a verdict.

I want to thank the League of Women Voters Barrington chapter for hosting our candidate forum for Illinois 5th Congressional District.

The choice couldn’t be any clearer. I laid out my vision for the future. Mike Quigley read a list of appropriations earmarks.

No vision, no plan, no future.

Think about the contrast it shows between the two parties.

Republicans, clapping at every word their unhinged leader says about rigged elections, immigrants, and every other lie he says.

Democrats - spending their time helping people who need it the most.

THATS how you win voters.

24.02.2026 17:09 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Just think about how mad and unhinged that would make Trump. He would seem even more like a deranged lunatic, yelling from the podium.

And Democrats - volunteer at a nearby homeless shelter, organize a food or clothing drive during the State of the Union.

24.02.2026 17:09 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 1    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

If Democrats had any political instinct, they would all attend the State of the Union. Remain seated, no applause, no reaction as he enters.

And the moment he gets to the podium, stand up and walk out. Just leave.

Republicans won't be able to fill those empty seats.

These times call for bold leadership. Someone who is unafraid, uncompromised, and unwavering. Three things that our current congressman Mike Quigley has never been, and never will be.

It's time for change. And YOU have the power to make that change happen.

Scoop: DNC officials working on secret report found Gaza stance cost Harris votes The DNC's research on what went wrong in 2024 has been under lock and key since party leaders decided to hide it from the public.

The Democratic Party today confirmed what we already knew - that Gaza is the reason they lost the 2024 election. And yet, they refuse to change their position.

If they won’t stand up to a genocide, then what will they ever stand for?
