Our Senators going to Broadview is big—&/but pls know:

They went bc regular folks have taken their signs, prayers, silly costumes, bullhorns, & guitars to Broadview day after day after day, despite tear gas, pepper balls, ICE agents' rage.

ILU, regular folks!

We’re outside of the Broadview ICE facility.

It’s clearer than ever before.

What’s happening in Illinois is an unprecedented, unlawful abuse of power.

There’s an interview going around about AI, so before there are any questions, let me state unequivocally that BLACK PHONE 2 is 100% organic. AI was not used at any stage of the filmmaking from idea generation, research, look books, writing, onscreen images - anything. We’re old school and love it.

If you’re worried about losing your health care, apparently Trump has a message for you:

Politico: Democrats are demanding Republicans negotiate a bipartisan stopgap spending measure. Among their asks is for the GOP to extend certain Affordable Care Act subsidies, which were expanded by Congress in 2021 and are due to sunset at the end of the year.

President Donald Trump on Thursday blamed Democrats for making “unserious and ridiculous” demands, foreshadowing what is likely to be the go-to talking point should neither side blink ahead of the Tuesday night deadline.

“He read all the shit they’re asking for, and he said, ‘on second thought, go fuck yourself,’” the White House official said.

If you have a Sinclair affiliate station, sorry, but they’re still not going to air ’ Jimmy Kimmel Live!’. Despite his return to ABC Tuesday night, Sinclair decided they will air something else instead of playing the late night show.
