Things feel uncertain right now, Illinois. I want you all to know we’re doing everything we can to protect your rights. Make sure you know how to stand up for yourself and others at illinoisimmigrationinfo.org.

Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US 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?"

The next Democratic president should declare that the National Emergencies Act and Article II of the Constitution allow him to: •admit D.C. and Puerto Rico as states •abolish ICE •grant citizenship to any immigrant •disband the 5th Circuit •expand the Supreme Court Seriously: Why the hell not?

x.com/destinationX... The niqab is not a symbol of faith - it is a tool of oppression. It reduces women to faceless shadows, stripping them of individuality, dignity, and humanity. When a woman’s face is erased, she is objectified, dehumanized - and in that void, men feel absolved of responsibility.

This text is quoted accurately. It is also a clarifying lie. Totalitarian governments know that normal people do not have time or resources to research every health, economic, or security issue. Their project of attacking all expertise is a project of seizing trust & thus power for themselves.

JB Pritzker uses the word "invasion" to describe what Trump has planned for my city, Chicago. And that's exactly what it would be – an autocratic government trying to crush our dissent because we oppose his corruption, cruelty and incompetence. It's what dictators do.

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

Memphis, Houston, and Kansas City all have more violent crime than DC, but the National Guard isn’t there because they’re in red states. It’s a show of force and, more so, a distraction. Trump wants us talking about anything other than his collapsing health and Jeffrey Epstein.

A great point, and I fear we know why: they don't anticipate there will be elections going forward—or if there are, their outcome will be structurally predetermined. This administration doesn't appear to have any expectation that it will ever be hamstrung or out of power. Not in 2026, not in 2028.
