Hundreds of Chicagoans flooded the streets after ICE agents stormed a daycare and violently detained a teacher in front of children and parents. How can any child feel safe after watching their educator dragged away? We stand with this community demanding dignity and decency!

Tesla’s profit fell 37% in the third quarter. It's been in the process of laying off 14,000 workers. It had more cars impacted by recalls than any other brand in 2024.
Yet Elon Musk just got a pay package worth $1 trillion.
American capitalism is off the rails.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis
Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.
We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.
A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, our healthcare, and the information we receive. Many are now currying favor with Trump to both avoid accountability and maintain their power. This is what oligarchy looks like.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.
Your Prime Day reminder that Amazon...

"Join us as veterans peacefully assemble in silent protest of the militarization of our communities.
We will be at the Broadview ICE facility between 4-6 PM. We understand that many people work 9-5 and might not be able to make it."

If "states' rights" mean anything, they must include the right to not get invaded by another state in peacetime.
Americans everywhere: Speak up and stand against Trump's outrageous assaults on Illinois and Oregon.

Our favorite economy professor explains what this bill is that everyone is saying caused the shutdown.
So even an idiot like me understands. 😁
