Has anyone ever attempted to figure out how many dollars we’ve paid Congress to do absolutely nothing in the 21st century, including their salaries, expenses, benefits, and pensions?

…

Cartoon by John Deering.

Gov. Pritzker: "[ICE] killed an unarmed person just a couple of weeks ago in Franklin Park...They killed somebody...They are just putting out their propaganda and then we've gotta later determine what actually happened."

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

AND SO IS THE CLOWN NEXT TO HIM!

Illinois needs to mobilize their national guard.

Jeffries top donors for 2024 were Aipac, Blackrock, and Lockheed Martin.
I'll pass on Jeffries too

Imagine.

Now hear me out. What if everyone dressed up as ICE agents in the US. You know full face masks etc.. Hard to kidnap people if they all dress the same
Just thinking out loud.

Electeds should represent the voters will AND stand up for the constitution and the rule of law.

This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?

It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. 

It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Conserving our environment is an American value. From hikers to hunters we want to keep our public lands public! Thats why the unprecedented sell-off of millions of acres of public lands needs to be removed from the Senate Budget Bill.

Nature is non partisan! 🇺🇸

Pass it on!

hear me out

what if we *neither* unconstitutionally accepted jets from a foreign nation *nor* kept throwing the jets we already have in the ocean?

Another Navy jet falls into sea, marking fourth major mishap in months The latest loss of an F/A-18 fighter jet occurred during a failed landing aboard the USS Harry S. Truman, an aircraft carrier in the Red Sea.

Whiskey Pete - 0
The sea - 4

could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

KEEP UP THE
GREAT WORK!

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Dear @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

STOP telling America we are in a Constituional crisis (which we are)

but ACTING like it’s politics as usual.

IF IT’S A GDMF CRISIS, ACT LIKE IT!

We don’t want to see more speeches & interviews. We want to see open rebellion from YOU!!

A president has no business targeting civil society orgs & let’s be clear—treating Americans as his enemies, not people he has sworn an oath to serve.

Thanks for sharing, it's great to see happy things occasionally. And that dog is overjoyed

Good Friday 2025. Riiight.

That's beautiful

I pray to see these corrupt individuals held to account.

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.

To Recap:

You can commit a crime by negligently divulging military secrets, in violation of the Espionage Act, and you will *not* be arrested.

But if you have an autism awareness tattoo to support your autistic brother, you *will* be kidnapped and sent to a concentration camp in another country.

Someone tell DOGE! Brutal photo by huff post i love it

So, if they're defunding USAID, VOA, VA, Medicaid, libraries, museums, public education, FEMA. Screwing with ACA, PBS, FDIC, SS, and Medicare or whatever else is on their shortlist. What are we paying taxes for? It's not like they're doing anything to help us, just taking stuff away.
