A brand new Super PAC — Elect Chicago Women — just dropped hundreds of thousands of dollars into this race. Why?

Because it’s actually a front for AIPAC dark money. And they’re doing everything they can to buy my race:

🚨 I just introduced my DRAIN ICE legislation package to repeal the tens of billions Trump and Republicans handed ICE last summer, force accountability for deadly detention center conditions, and save lives now. I’m urging my colleagues to sign on.

Unsettling that these words are timeless and current. Comforting that Sir Ian is still with us, ever so eloquent and poignant.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Seems important.
Is everyone aware that Ratcliffe offered buyouts to CIA agents in February? Is Ratcliffe smearing incorruptible CIA agents who refused to leave?

As for the FBI, well...👇

Israeli assets infiltrated the FBI field offices in L.A. + Rudy Giuliani was laundering Russian disinformation - translated into Ukrainian - on the Biden Family.

The FBI L.A. offices LOVED IT.

SSA Buma was arrested in March by Kash Patel, Buma was naming Israelis.

They’re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas.

For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare.

Let's help Harry get it done!!! We need heroes.
January 6 was the worst day of my life. But the threat of Donald Trump didn’t end when the mob left the Capitol.

That’s why I’m running for Congress: to defend this country, with the full constitutional authority of Congress.

I’m Harry Dunn. And I’m ready to finish the job.

I hate that this is what our country has come to. Children having to protect themselves from maga. Trump can't have us and he can't have our children. He is not arresting illegal violent criminals. He's taking the soul of our children.
Kyle, TX — A Trump supporter in a MAGA hat physically attacked a teenage girl at a student anti-ICE protest, without provocation. According to eyewitnesses, “He went straight to attack the girl." Other high school-aged student protesters fought back, forcing him to retreat into his truck.

Epstien made kompromat for Russia. Epstien had dirt on world leaders. That pedophile ring maga accused Hillary of? Yeah. Wrong party, maga. Look in the mirror!
I don't blame Lindsey for being drunk.
If Mandelson is being investigated for his Epstein connections, he must also be investigated for his Thiel connections, because they ran a joint fund when Mandelson fixed Starmer's visit to Palantir
