“When authoritarians seize power, it is crucial to recognise courageous defenders of freedom who rise & resist. Democracy depends on people who refuse to stay silent, who dare to step forward despite grave risk & remind us freedom must never be taken for granted.”

The time has come for the fall of the Trump fascist regime, and it's up to US to make it happen.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov is the leader we need - “This is exactly the moment for people to stand up...It shouldn’t be that there are Democrats that are afraid, because you know what? We’re the targets. We need to be strong, we need to fight back.” #DV1 #ProudBlue

BREAKING: Donald Trump did NOT win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado received the Nobel Peace Prize for promoting democratic rights in her country.

A win! A federal judge has granted Chicago and the State of Illinois a restraining order against the Trump administration, blocking the deployment of the National Guard in Illinois.

#NobelPrize Congratulations 🎊

Our city is under siege. Not from foreign forces [but] from... confederate apologists and antebellum fanboys. It is our responsibility to speak with moral clarity and a spiritual rooting...

Woohoo 🥳

Sister Jean was a role model in Illinois — inspiring us to embrace our neighbors.

As a lover of life, she taught us to channel positivity to keep us hopeful in times of need and kept that attitude all the way to a life well-lived at 106 years old.

May her memory be a blessing.

He was just a singer in a rock and roll band, but he will be missed. Pouring one out today for John Lodge of the Moody Blues. 😢
"And if you want the wind of change
To blow about you
And you're the only other person to know, don't tell me
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band."

Again, Trump has crossed a Red Line no president has ever crossed: personally ordering the criminal prosecution of an American he doesn't like despite DOJ not finding evidence of any crime.

If Trump can do this to the powerful, he can do it to you. That's not freedom, and its not America.

President Trump and the New York attorney general, Letitia James, accused each other of real estate fraud. But the sum involved in her case is $18,933, while millions were at stake in his. The case against James shows how Trump has directed the Justice Department's powers towards his adversaries.

“This is a movement…This is an achievement of a whole society…I am just one person.”

The beautiful humility of Venezuelan pro-democracy leader, Maria Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize recipient.
