The pardon shows howTrump & his friends benefit from his rollback of the wide-ranging crypto crackdown orchestrated by Biden. Mr. Zhao hired lawyers & lobbyists with ties to Trump, while Binance struck a deal with World Liberty Financial, Trump’s crypto start-up.

I'm a SNAP recipient. They only give me $107 a month, but I need it to eat.
And I need you to remember that Republicans are in charge. Republicans have agency. Republicans, Republicans, Republicans!
The #TrumpShutdown is NOT ON DEMOCRATS. Republicans will cave—or not. Either way, this is theirs.

A thing about the east coast is that even the women are gonna hand you your ass on a platter. The blow up costumes are nice but we do it different over here.

It's not just what Andrew Cuomo is saying—it's who's funding him.
The single largest donor to a pro-Cuomo SuperPAC is Airbnb cofounder/board member Joe Gebbia, who promotes vile and racist messages about immigrants.

I guess where I’m landing is less “oh no he’s a Nazi” and more “I just went through this shit with Fetterman and Sinema and a six year term is too long for me to take on faith that your Nazi tattoo was the accident but what you’re saying now is the truth.”

If you need a whistle, please drop by our office (7016 N Clark Street) to pick up one for free.
If you see ICE, blow three short bursts.
If they are detaining someone, blow three long bursts.

If you are on ICE watch in the Rogers Park vicinity please have a buddy and exercise extreme caution. ICE has assaulted verifiers today and arrested at least one of our people. If you are vulnerable to ICE in this area, I recommend staying inside if possible.

West Ridge this morning, 11:37am—
Neighbors witnessed Border Patrol agents arresting a man who's been building a new staircase on their building.
"Wait, this is private property," the woman recording says.
"No, it's not," the agent replies, covering his face with his jacket.

As most are aware by now, ICE is slamming the north side today. They've been seen in Andersonville, Rogers Park, West Ridge, Edgewater + Evanston. Several people abducted, agents still active.
