Gov. Pritzker today called for the invocation of the 25th Amendment. Is it not time for you and colleagues to co-sign? His comportment and speech yesterday at Quantico were badly substandard for a CinC, calling for the military to use our cities as training grounds for war. We cannot have this.

EPA has ordered scientists in its Office of Water to immediately pause almost all research & stop publishing studies. Researchers were told that, unless scientific journals had already returned proofs, studies will be subject to an additional EPA review.

Hundreds of people detained at the Alligator Alcatraz immigration processing center west of Miami, Florida, appear to have vanished. They have disappeared from the ICE online database, and their lawyers and families have been unable to locate them.
