For the Record:

#Antifa is shorthand for Anti-Fascist

Which my late Grandfather was.
POW of the OG Nazis in WWII

The attempt by the felonious POTUS & his criminal cabal to undermine the bravery & courage of #WWII US Armed Forces 80+ yrs ago by turning their legacy into a slur?

#Unforgivable

My late grandfather, Eugene E. Marx of Sparta, WI
story on him in his hometown paper after his death
Images of him in his US Army Air Forces (USAAF) in his 20s & a photo of him around age 85.
Text:
Stalag Luft IV
Gene Marx, a 1936 Sparta High School graduate, was shot down over Italy in a B-24 Liberator in August of 1944. He spent six months in a POW camp called Stalag Luft IV in Poland and was forced to march 500 miles in three months as his captors tried to escape the advancing Russian Army. By the time he was repatriated, Marx had gone from a 175 pound picture of health to a 105 pound skeleton bordering on death.

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

But he and his NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL Sec of HHS want to deny the rest of us the ability to get one.

Please note, the only story the grand jury hears is the prosecutor’s side which is the side of the ICE.

Argentina is already defaulting on a $20 billion dollar bailout loan from the International Monetary Fund, but this $20 billion dollar bailout loan from the US Treasury will work out great. For Milei.

Stephanie Ruhle lays out the summary:

Why your Thanksgiving sides fail (and it's not your fault):

Most recipes are written by food bloggers who:
- Test once
- Use professional equipment
- Have culinary training
- Skip the "oops I forgot to thaw the butter" reality

Real home cooks need different recipes.

Let Me Be Blunt: this isn’t business as usual.

Republicans shut down the government and are refusing to negotiate. They’re even holding committee hearings on everything BUT their shutdown.

This week, I used my time in those hearings to remind them what’s really at stake.

Enforce the Posse Comitatus Act, keep US Military from being illegally used to abuse citizens and occupying US cities!

UPDATE: While it shouldn't have taken this long for the Senate to look into Trump’s egregious abuse of our military, I have secured a hearing to investigate his deployments of troops into our cities—

And I’ll be asking tough questions of the Trump Administration when it happens.

Tammy Duckworth @duckworth.senate.gov · 1d

Trump is forcing the military to our cities, intimidating Americans and distracting troops from their core missions.

It's unconstitutional—we can't act like it's business as usual.

I'm blocking the NDAA until we secure a hearing to investigate this gross abuse of our military.

Trump: "We're not cutting Medicaid."
Also Trump: Signs the largest Medicaid cut in history into law.

There’s no Democratic “wish list.” We just want Trump to keep his promise: repeal the cuts and lower costs.

These firings are illegal—

And yet another example of Trump finding new ways to inflict harm on the American people and the programs they rely on.

He's playing with Americans' livelihoods to try and help Republicans pass a budget that would kick you off your health care.

BREAKING: White House budget office says "substantial" firings of federal workers have started as the Trump administration exerts shutdown leverage.

Budget office says 'substantial' firings of federal workers have started in government shutdown

I was on the ground today in Broadview with Senator Durbin to conduct Congressional oversight on ICE’s processing facility.  As elected officials, we have a duty to ensure transparency within federal facilities. What is ICE hiding? Kristi Noem, what are you hiding?

All correct, Simon.

But I think it matters that No Congress has passed a mandated Budget bill since 1996!

Continuing Resolutions are how they’ve funded the U.S. fed gov’t for 29 long years now.

The cause? Far too many in Congress in those seats for 20, 30 or more years!

The cure? #TermLimits

The shooter in Utah was a registered Republican who once donated $15 dollars to a liberal org.

Mainstream news reported all of it.

Republicans are just LYING LIARS without any decency, just the vile need to grab power and money every chance they get.
