I’m trying to wrap my head around the fact that we, the United States of America, are going to allow a *traitor* to occupy the While House - OUR house.

This debacle has gone beyond anything I could imagine. And it will get worse - much worse.
Good. Make life as miserable as possible for the ICE Gestapo terrorizing the Twin Cities. 🥶

Given the high suicide rates for veterans, cutting mental health and suicide prevention jobs at the Veterans Administration is UNCONSCIONABLE. The Trump administration is full of incompetent, hateful monsters.

I trust Netflix over Ellison, any day. Media consolidation is bad for everyone, but having Trump control who consolidates based on who will distort the media to help Trump is worse.
Neither Netflix nor the Paramount/Trump/Saudi Arabia group should own Warner Bros. Both deals are absurd - terrible for consumers and democracy.

This is a story about corruption - Trump using government power to screw consumers and gain control of the media. A red alert moment.

Rep. Seth Moulton: "It's amazing how quickly this administration releases videos that they do what the public to see, and how many excuses they'll come up with for videos they don't want the public to see…The American public deserves to see what's happening."

NVIDIA chips are used by the U.S. military for defense research, sensor processing, robotics, and DARPA projects that depend on high performance AI. And now the White House wants to hand that tech to China to fix the soybean crisis their own tariff war created.

Today, I've signed into law legislation that expands legal protections for the people of Illinois.

Dropping your kid off at day care, going to the doctor, or attending classes should not be a life-altering task.

We will counter the Trump Administration's depravity.

Hegseth should be grounded - with an ankle monitor.
Congress is using its marquee defense bill to force the Pentagon into turning over videos of those legally dubious boat strikes.

Lawmakers plan to withhold a quarter of Pete Hegseth's travel budget until the Pentagon provides them with the videos. www.politico.com/news/2025/12...
Congress to withhold Pentagon travel funds until it sees boat strike videos
Lawmakers quietly stuck the requirement into their must-pass annual defense policy bill.

I rarely sound alarm - but please: do not believe what you hear or read from the legacy outlets.

For US news - these either serve the WH by definition or are intimidated to serve (always their decision though)

For global news - US media spreads pro-RU, anti-EU views under “America First” label.

US gov oversight reports indicate $185B appropriated for Ukraine through 3/2025—this incl $$ for replenishing US defense stocks & aid to other NATO allies. Ca $90B of the amount was disbursed for Ukraine.

European nations have collectively committed more total aid to Ukraine than the US.

In a way, I feel sorry for the people who believe this bullshit spewing from the regime. It’s just sad and pathetic.

Putin used the state-run gas giant Gazprom to force a takeover of NTV, Russia’s biggest independent TV network, then fired critical journalists and turned it into a pro-Kremlin outlet. A buyout disguised as “business” became state control. This is what's happening in the US now.

Europe is warning it could dump U.S. Treasuries if Trump cuts a Ukraine deal without them. This would be a real economic shock. Rates would spike, the dollar would weaken, inflation would rise, and markets would panic. All because Trump wants to kiss Putin's ass.

We won our lawsuit and stopped the Trump administration from blocking an array of new wind energy projects.

This is a big victory in our fight to keep tackling the climate crisis and protect one of our best sources of clean, reliable, and affordable energy.

Thank you @markey.senate.gov for your commitment to true innovation, and to all you do to push for protections for all of us!
Innovation does not justify a rush to roll out AI without protections. As tools of oppression evolve, our civil rights protections must evolve, too—and I’m standing with @maya4rights.bsky.social to make it real.
