Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want? Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?
Ok. This is art.
Attention Chicago: We will NOT be meeting at Federal Plaza. We now will be meeting at Ida B Wells and Michigan. Time and date depends on the arrival time of the troops: IF TROOPS ARRIVE BEFORE 3PM, PROTEST SAME DAY AT 5PM. IF TROOPS ARRIVE AFTER 3PM, PROTEST NEXT DAY AT 5PM.
šØšØšØIf you live anywhere in the greater Chicago areaā¦ICE will start using Great Lakes Naval Station as a command center for their āenforcementā operations across Chicago on Sept 5. The base isnāt in the city or Cook County. Itās north, in Lake County. Expect raids across entire the metropolitan area.
I feel like I am a road runner cartoon. My music would be the coyote music. š
Out for a stroll on another incredible Chicago day. This is āmeet me on Milwaukee,ā a car free event in the Wicker Park neighborhood. Happy people & happy dogs everywhere. Remember this when Trump tries to paint an ugly picture of our beautiful city. #chicago
This is not written by him.
No way he wrote that.
RT if u agree
Love the cat.
šØ āThe people united will never be divided!ā Happening in OUR nationās capital today. 1/2
Trump limits National Guard assignments to 29 days at a time to keep the called up service members from getting healthcare and housing benefits while on duty. And the NG troops are catching on. Stereotypical Trump. Don't give those losers and suckers an extra dime. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...

WTAF!
Mainstream Media isnāt reporting about the children who have died that ICE Gestapo snatched! #iceout #arrestnoem #arresttrump
Targeting firefighters while they work. Dragging children from their beds in the dead of night. MAGA will go to any length. Weāve said it before, eventually the monster comes for us all!
Please put him in Central Park!
THIS IS ALL MERRICK GARLANDāS FAULT.
Don't give up!
I still worship Susan Lucci.
Ok. Iāll admit it. I was an All My Children junkie. And I freakin loved my All My Children char rooms and the early days of chat. I am still good friends with those junkies. It all felt so ā¦ā¦simple then.
That face is soooooo kissable!
The horror!
Are they getting rid of the witnesses?
Dean Cain got exactly what he wished for: he collected ICEās sign-on bonus, was āinjured,ā and is now out on disability.
they are so ill-suited for the moment. we donāt need genteel politicos. we need fucking bomb throwers. no āwork across the aisleā types. iām talking āburn it all down and salt the earthā types.
She is spot on!
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
You misunderstood. Heās going to END THE HOMELESS. š
As an Illinoisan he isnāt perfect. No one is. And no one should agree with their leaders 100% of the time. But that man was a rock star during the pandemic. He spoke to us daily, for a year. He earned my loyalty then. Now? Now heās the only one speaking for us. He needs to be POTUS next.
He henceforth shall be referred to as President Cankles McRottinghands. Well done sir. Well done.
If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

Ok. Since the other thing didnāt happen today, this made my day. Thank you!š
That orange one on the left is going to be jumbo. I want him! š§”
How did I not know know Green Bay looked like a big wang?
Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others ā Congress, the courts, the American people ā from having a say or even knowing what heās going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
Isnāt Cracker Barrelās real problem that they serve bad food?
Just casually laying the groundwork for violent repression of the opposition

The Fed was designed to be insulated from politics to maintain the stability and credibility of our financial system. The President is breaking the law, abusing his power, setting a dangerous precedent, and undermining our economy.
Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago: "If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."
To Donald Trump and his administration: If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me ā not time or political circumstance ā from making sure you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.
šNOTE TO PRESS: You are allowed to push back, ask follow-up questions, and correct lies for the record when questioning anybody, but mostly when questioning the most notorious liar on the planet. In fact, that's your fucking job.
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
I work in a medical office itās infuriating. I am so freaking mad for you. UHC btw is by far the worst. My experience is both from the point of view of a patient and someone who has to call them and work with them. Luigi was right.
UHC should be able to tell you who is in network in your area.
š§µš§µš§µ Trump often lies about Chicago, using a great American city as a punching bag to entertain out-of-town racists who are scared of Black and Latino Chicagoans whom theyāve never met. Heās threatening a military occupation. Hereās a thread about Chicago, Trump and crime. 1/
This!
The New York Times knows these BS mortgage fraud accusations by the Trump regime are the very definition of "lawfare." But NYT is headquartered on its own Neutrality Island, where the local ordinances require newspapers to pretend the fascists are operating with good intentions.
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu: āSilence in the face of oppression is not an option. The U.S. Attorney General asked for a response by today. So here it isā¦Stop attacking our cities to hide your administration's failures.ā
That weave is looking ratty
Worthless is too kind.
Imagine how much money one could make if they were to make nice with all the enemies of democracy and instead deploy USAās military against its own citizens to feed the private prison industry. Trump gets a big cut. Heās part of something much bigger & more sinister. Wake up USA.
Humiliate him!
The beginning of the end?
As DC was taken over by Trumpās secret police, where were congressional Democrats? They werenāt in DC and some werenāt even in the US. Instead of fighting back against the authoritarian takeover here at home, 22 House āDemocratsā were being spoon-fed lies about Gaza on a trip paid for by AIPAC.
this is like if a far side cartoon grew up to be a real boy
Well we see how he scores himself in golf. There is nothing else I can say.
Sheer DJT stupidity & incompetence: Documents with sensitive details about the meeting between Putin and Trump were left behind on a public hotel printer. www.npr.org/2025/08/16/n...
This tribute made me like a song that I always hated. They rocked this to perfection.
they literally left them in a public printer like it was a signal chat or something www.npr.org/2025/08/16/n...
Ukrainian-American Volodymyr Valchuk said he already had low expectations for the high-stakes summit between Trump and Putin. But after listening to them meet in person, he said, āIām speechless. I have nothing to say. I really didnāt expect much, but this is even worse than I thought."
The OPSEC is immaculate, bro

One of Trump's many dipshits left behind sensitive documents about the Anchorage summit on a hotel copy machine -- including: names and numbers of U.S. and Russian state leaders, schedule and room locations. Yet another major national security breach. www.npr.org/2025/08/16/n...
Friends, listen: No one's asking you to vote for Newsom. It will take all sides to fight fascism together. Right now, Newsom is leading that charge. Next month, it might be someone else ā and you should back them in our fight too. Simple stuff.
my boss always speaks first at meetings too
I really donāt have words to describe how incandescently angry I am at Trumpās hosting of Putin. It spits in the face of every American who ever fought against tyranny, itās an obscene affront to our allies, and the only reason itās not treason is that weāre not actively at war with Russia.
Wait! I thought in Trumpās America tossing a six inch is a felony?!
JUST IN: In a new article, NPR reports on how MeidasTouch is one of the few pro-democracy video podcasts topping YouTubeās rankings, calling the network the "pacesetter of the pack.ā
If they add Czech to that, I am screwed.
i am just asking for one (1) democratic politician to get their mic cut on fox bc they agreed to an interview about crime in dc but instead wont stop talking about epstein and dominion
Ok! Thank you! Good night. I am done. Out of here. I cannot do this timeline one more minute.
Every activated Guardsman has a family, a job, school, or something that they are leaving to do their duty. Itās one thing when itās a warā¦ or a real mass civil disturbance, which those only last a few days. But to rip these people from their lives for a showā¦ is awful.
Petty? Like shooting a puppy for ā¦.bring a puppy?
Military force against Americans, in our nationās capital, starts Monday. Theyāll start with the homeless and mentally ill, but it wonāt end there. This is a testā¦
Your videos are the best part of my day! Thank you.
āWho stands there and watches as someone gets attacked?ā Ermā¦..š¤
Small note, adults rape children. They don't have sex with them.
Wow. Even the Library of Congress are a lying pile of shit.
The Trump regime has removed sections 9 and 10 of the constitution from its website, which include Habeas Corpus, congressional appropriations, and other states rifhts constitution.congress.gov/constitution/
Article I Sections 9 & 10 of the U.S. Constitutionāwhich limit presidential power over tariffs and protect habeas corpusāhave disappeared from Congressās website. They claim a coding error is to blame.
The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didnāt). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesnāt). The jobs numbers were rigged (they werenāt). I could say something funny here, but I wonāt. Itās just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.
You know why Sean Duffy announced plans to build a nuclear reactor on the moon? Because Donald Trump is a pedophile.
My friend from Wisconsin todayā¦.. Friend/Cheezian: I know you love Pritzker, but we need him to run for POTUS Me/Illinoisan: I thinks so too but only if we can be assured the elections are not rigged, we need him too.
Republicans complain about Texas Democrats āfleeingāāyet just days ago, they themselves fled D.C. to avoid voting on the Epstein files. Why? To protect a convicted felon sitting in the Oval Office. One side dodges accountability. The other fights for democracy. Repost @djmelodie
Oh.
That is a big cat.
Low IQ. Nasty etc. always people of color. Always. Just say the N word Donny you know you want too!
I am so tired of this crap. Put on the gloves and fight!
