🚨There goes the last of Governor Pritzker’s fucks. 🪦
He took that threat of being arrested to heart… and the people of Chicago are marching in the streets because the Chicago mayor and their governor have their backs. ✊🏼

Stephen Miller is a corrupt loser with a microphone and a Napoleon complex. He’s also basically running the government.

The Oregon national guard general says if the Oregon National guard were to be deployed they would be instructed under his leadership to protect the protesters not ICE.

Pritzker: "He said he was going after the worst of the worst. It's not going after the worst of the worst when you're just literally stopping children who happen to be brown & asking them for papers as if they're gonna have proof they're a citizen. Pull out your phones and film everything you see"

Schiff: "You begin to wonder -- do they believe they have the authority by putting some groups on a list, even domestic groups, to use lethal force against them, with no trial, no due process, no nothing? The reality is we can't rule that out."

CA should send 1000 of our national guard to Chicago… to control the Texass national guard troops and ICE.
Call it, supporting Local police.
Just redeploy our troops, illegally federalized in LA.
That would solve the LA deployment by pumpkinhead.
Come on AGs, think outside the box.

Some cases take on outsized importance, with issues that transcend the decision the parties ask the courts to make. This is one of those cases. The stakes are high: the integrity of the Justice Department and the ability of a president to corrupt the rule of law. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

Wed can be for Women. It's just a feeling I have this morning. Maybe because we recently celebrated the life of Jane Goodall, conservationist and protector of precious creatures. Or juxtapose the beauty of Ms Goodall's love and care for our world against the hate/destruction practiced by Bondi.
