His slip of the tongue reveals who’s really in charge. trib.al/mIvP0yE

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

I know Mike Johnson says there is nothing for the House to do but there is.

You see by law a budget was supposed to be in place by Sept 30th, but Rs haven’t passed one. The reason? There isn’t a GOP budget. They haven’t even started working on one. This is what the House should be doing FFS!

Speaker Mike Johnson said that the Dems are holding a Hate America rally.

Silly Mike!The Dems aren't the masked goons propelling down from helicopters to terrorize people in the middle of the night!
THAT WOULD BE YOU. #CrueltyIsKey #ICE

In a democracy, presidents don’t wield the military against citizens or weaponize the Justice Department against political opponents.

Since Congress won’t act, voters must.
We must decide what kind of country we want
A president who uses the military and the Justice Department to exact revenge against his perceived enemies is as un-Ame

Instead of working with Democrats to lower health care costs, Donald Trump and Project 2025 author Russ Vought are trying to fire thousands of federal workers.

Remember, the Trump administration had to REHIRE people they fired previously.

It’s cruel and beyond incompetence.

Yesterday they were shooting priests in the head with rubber bullets. Today they're arresting journalists. If you have anyone in your life who doesn't regularly follow the news and doesn't understand how bad things are and how bad they're about to get, you need to tell them right now. Time is short.

Hey Donnie...
Heads up...Letitia James didn't convict you, a JURY did. THEY found enough EVIDENCE to find you GUILTY. Why a vengeance vendetta against the "messenger" 🤔

Well, guess what?

There is no free 747 either.

Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

A $10 million Medicaid settlement was quietly sent to the Hope Florida Foundation — a charity led by Casey DeSantis meant to help Floridians. But instead it was funneled into the coffers of a political com. to fight last year’s marijuana legalization effort.

Donald Trump is calling for the jailing of his political opponents in Chicago. His DOJ lackeys have already indicted a NJ Congresswoman for conducting ICE facility oversight and James Comey. John Bolton's house was raided.

We must treat these latest threats seriously and all stand up against them.

Monstrous.

"federal agents detained nearly every resident of the 130-unit building—including children and babies—placing them in zip ties and separating them by race into vans for more than two hours early Tuesday morning."

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children
Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."
