They want us to not have any humanity
This administration sent 200+ fathers, sons, and husbands to be tortured in a foreign prison for the rest of their lives. 9 in 10 have no criminal record. None received any due process.
If you *aren’t* outraged, you need to check your fucking humanity.

Trump's press secretary mocked the “Democrat and media outrage” over the deportation of a Maryland father as “nothing short of despicable.”

If Americans don't like the direction of the country, they should speak directly to power—either by taking a Supreme Court justice on an all-expenses-paid trip or by paying Donald Trump 5 million dollars to have dinner together.

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

Donald Trump promised he wouldn't cut Medicaid.
This week, his friends in DC voted for a bill that would leave 3.4 million Illinoisans, including 1.4 million children, in the dust.
Another middle finger to working families and the most vulnerable in our state.
