Governor JB Pritzker (@govpritzker.illinois.gov) reposted
The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Joe Rogan is spreading climate misinformation on one of the country’s most popular podcasts, scientists say—and he’s not the only one.

Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey, and all the co-conspirators did to me. I was raped three times a day. Ghislaine must die in prison.”

Here’s what was NOT released today: - the proffer agreement between Maxwell and the DoJ - the agreement transferring Maxwell to club fed - communications showing who waived Maxwell’s sex offender status allowing her transfer and possible work assignments outside prison - the Epstein files

The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

Virginia Giuffre’s brother: Calling it a hoax is a complete disgrace to everything that my sister has worked for, everything these survivors have worked for and continue to fight for… And that feels very uncompassionate coming from somebody that’s the leader of our country.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. 2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor. 3) Donors make a huge profit. 4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

BREAKING: We just subpoenaed the Epstein files. As a survivor of sexual assault, I know the pain & trauma survivors carry. This subpoena is a massive victory for every survivor who has ever been silenced, dismissed, or harmed. Bondi must release the files immediately. We demand accountability.

One can hope, but I'm sceptical. I think this is just a play to cast doubt on anything Epstein-related. Rupert is in on it. All to get MAGA to stay loyal. Hope I'm wrong.

Ex-farm worker here. We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing. Not true AT ALL. Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are. The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour. At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.

You don't come across as calm at all. I'm even further away than you, and what's happening in the US concern me. Global stability, the environment, markets, war are not isolated. US education (lack thereof) is a long-term factor here. No need to insult USians on your side.

That's a vague answer. What is the source that planning of the parade started 2 years ago and that Biden was involved? I don't doubt plans for a celebration, but I'd like to know when/how it became a parade.

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

No matter how many times we say Fox News isn’t real news, it doesn’t matter—because their viewers believe it is. Watch: It shows exactly how they’re screwing all of us—you & me—because we’re stuck dealing with people who fall for disinformation. And their own viewers, because they believe the lies.

I hope you're right, but I fear that some will negotiate. And once that dam is broken (at least with the richer countries), nations might start to panick. Businesses will feel severe impact, and they will put pressure on their respective governments.
