We have a president that hates the majority of the citizens of the U.S.

We have a president that hates the principles that the United States was founded upon.

We have a president that declared that you are the enemy from within.

We have a president that is waging war against me and against you!

Keep taking videos of what ICE is doing. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is right, document what’s happening. This is why they hate journalists so much.

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

Abughazaleh: I think Kristi Noem should be tried at The Hague. And if the response from ICE to people exercising their first amendment right is to drive vehicles through them, they should not be an agency in the US.

My opponent thinks we are suckers. She thinks we don’t see through her smoke and mirrors on the shutdown. It’s easy to skip a paycheck when you’re a multimillionaire like she is. She’s out of touch and out of gas. Let’s replace her with someone who wants to do the work. @wellmanformo.bsky.social

Prime Minister of Albania came up to Macron and Azerbaijani President Aliyev and joked about how Trump had resolved the conflict between Albania and Azerbaijan. They were mocking him 🤣
