Pritzker: "He has no idea what's he's talking about. There is no emergency that warrants deployment of troops. He is insulting the people of Chicago by calling our home a hellhole, and anyone that takes his word at face value is insulting Chicagoans too."
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump is preparing to deploy National Guard troops in the state over the governor’s repeated objections. Pritzker also warned Trump will soon launch large-scale immigration raids in Chicago. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
But I thought the Trump admin was trying to fight crime in DC. Open carry isn’t legal, but they’re going to turn a blind eye? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE! 🚨 U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro directed her office to no longer seek felony charges against individuals carrying rifles or shotguns in D.C.
Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"

That Pritzker press conference was... surreal, and I think marks a significant moment of escalation in the constitutional omni-crisis. This was the governor of a state saying plainly the Union itself is being torn apart and his state is being militarily invaded by an authoritarian regime.
Happy Day-After-Labor-Day to all who celebrate.

“I refuse to accept this is normal.” - JB Pritzker. Amen, governor. Amen.

The burden on America will keep getting heavier until something gives.
"It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try and disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear, the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here." JB Pritzker
Sure. Trust the former heroine addict who had a brain worm eat what was still left in there.
Trump: "Without the United States, everything in the world would die ... I settled seven wars."
Like Trump, Noem is pushing for a state-media standard - 'I can say whatever I want & you have to broadcast it.' She knows it's a lie but that's what authoritarians do. They lie. Fox would have let her get away with it (again) but thankfully CBS pushed back...this time.
#ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles donnie little-dick. You have that power and courts aren't needed donnie. But of course you know that. You can't release the Files because Donald J Trump's name is all through those files. #Pediophine #GOPPedophiles
Not a bonespur of the moment decision. The Epstein file is causing heartburn.
And so… IT BEGINS ⚠️ 🫣🤬😤😡💪🏽

He is right about this one. And our city would have less of a shooring problem if we had less underserved populations & neighborhoods.
#Elonald #Trumpstein is like a carp on hot asphalt, just flapping around and going nowhere. Release the #Epstein #pedophile files so the victims can see accountability for these crimes.

A judge has found that Trump exceeded the limits of federal laws when he deployed the military to Los Angeles. From LA to DC to Chicago and beyond, we are united: NATIONAL GUARD GO HOME. #FreeDC www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/u...
President Trump decided to kill energy projects that are nearly done, because he doesn’t like wind and solar. We all know our country overall needs more energy, not less. (1/2)

Pritzker: “ I refuse to play a reality game show with Donald Trump. “

MAGA sheriff shakes with rage in rant over 'irritatingly high' ICE care standards *FORMER Sheriff: How fxxking dare they treat them like they're human.
Poor neglected red states. No one cares about all the murders in them. Red state lives don’t matter to this administration.
The president’s favorite TV show is helping to ease the country onto a glide path toward Trump’s authoritarian goal of putting troops on the ground in more U.S. cities.

Amy Coney Barrett is such a colossal idiot. It's bad enough to opine that SCOTUS should approach its work as if it existed to bow to public opinion, but overturning Roe was very much AGAINST PUBLIC OPINION, YOU MORON. www.cnn.com/2025/09/02/p...

Kennedy must be removed from office. He has already caused a catastrophe at HHS and the CDC. I strongly suspect that he is about to use data manipulated by unscrupulous and unqualified individuals to attempt to falsely show that vaccines are in some way a net harm. He simply must be stopped.

I liked it better when he was dead.
BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.
It’s disgusting!🤮
There’s so much more to say about SCOTUS, but one thing I hope came through in this convo is what a winning streak Trump is on at SCOTUS right now - & how insane it is that the court is blessing many of his assertions of executive authority w/o a word of explanation @strictscrutiny.bsky.social
Shut the fuck up !! You lying piece of shit !!

America heartbroken to discover president somehow still alive
Well. He’s puffier and oranger than usual. His hair is insane. But that seems pretty normal to me.
It's being reported that the Pentagon is authorizing military lawyers to serve as immigration judges. This is a threat to the Constitution. Don't say we didn't warn you. From the archives:

Bernie Sanders tells Rolling Stone he’s backing Graham Platner, Maine’s oysterman Senate candidate, to “send a message.” The message: “Ordinary people can step up, you can take on the powers that be. You can win.” Dispatch from @andrewperez.bsky.social: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
