I am closely monitoring the ongoing military operations in Iran. International military actions have a direct and profound impact on Maryland’s families and communities.

I served in Afghanistan and I’ve seen who pays the price when Washington rushes into conflict.

I actually am unhinged enough to think it’s not out of the realm of possibility that he launches a war to distract from Epstein files and have a reason to declare a national emergency to suspend voting. It’s not as if lost lives matter to him.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party.

We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness β€” or one rooted in cruelty and rage.

This is one of the many problems with the Trump regime. While they’re stuck in the 20th century, the rest of the world will pass us by. With better energy solutions and technology.

Today November seems a long way out, but it’s coming fast. Let’s keep our heads on a swivel:
1) ICE is still doing monstrous things
2) Trump is doing everything he can to suppress voter turnout
3) Trump is doing anything to distract from the Epstein files

Let’s stay involved and fight back.

Anyone who has committed such crimes doesn’t deserve to be in office, let alone to be out on the streets.

NEWS: Former South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol has been sentenced to life in prison after a court found him guilty of leading an insurrection tied to his 2024 martial law declaration that triggered a constitutional crisis and military raid on the National Assembly.

Yet another way this country is falling apart. This country was built on the idea that dissent is part of a good government. That’s what the Declaration of Independence was. Dissent and asserting everyone’s right to Question Authority.

A short note to Kristi Noem To a current Cabinet secretary from a former one

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

Do you remember at the start of the 1st trump there was a lie counter for Trump? Wonder what Karoline Leavitt numbers would be like?

In a democracy, we are supposed to feel like we have control over our lives because the people control the government.

But in the U.S., people feel like our lives are out of control because the people don’t control the federal government.

I hope that the Democratic Party and independents are ready for the level of vigilance this election will require in order to be fair. Trump and MAGA fear retribution for their crimes and will do anything to stay in power to avoid it

I cannot over-emphasize how important it will be for people to make a plan to vote early in-person this year.

1 - quagmire with maga hat on and peter sitting in a booth drinking beer and quagmire says 'The president didn't poop his pants. That's just the lame stream media telling lies.'  

2 - peter puts his arms out and says 'who starts a conversation like that i just sat down!'

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

ICE MUST GO‼️

Liam has been on my mind constantly the past 2 weeks. This picture was seared into my brain; it is evidence of the total lack of humanity within this administration.
Many thanks to @danilawaart.bsky.social for allowing me to recreate this beautiful work as crop art.

Our Wins Of The Week While ICE’s reign of terror on the streets of Minneapolis has been horrific, Alex Pretti’s murder on Saturday by ICE agents has broken through in ways news stories rarely do.

The deaths of Alex Pretti and RenΓ©e Good are devastating and deeply troubling. The strong national response this week shows Americans will not let these losses be ignored or swept under the rug. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/week-progr...

Agreed. My was that we all see that something has happened, but we can’t get justice in part because the evidence is being withheld. Perhaps it was a bad analogy.
