Liberals are mocked by MAGA as being 'libtards.'  A few synonyms for liberal include: Humanistic, tolerant, understanding, intelligent, rational, broadminded, open, advanced, enlightened, unprejudiced. Sounds like something EVERYONE should strive for, right?

Yeah guns are dangerous and when you play around with them, someone is bound to get hurt/killed! Understatement.

Thus far, ICE and CBP in the Chicago region killed an immigrant

Shot a woman 5 times-after allegedly taunting her, saying “Do something, b****”

And shot a priest-who wasn’t remotely a threat-in the head

So when does Governor Pritzker deploy the National Guard to protect citizens from these thugs

Trump’s new law trying to close down health care providers who provide abortion care may take away life-saving primary care and treatment for common chronic diseases in rural areas around the country. Medicaid is a big part of the revenue for rural clinics and without federal funding they may close.

Applications of these porous compounds include catalysis and pollution remediation

Also: science is an international enterprise which helps tie the world together. All Trump's administration does is to isolate America

As this horrible Trump administration attacks great American research universities and immigrants, it is important to remember how the science and technology that have fueled America's growth as an economic superpower depend on both.

Leading economists say the U.S. saw “essentially no job growth” last month.

Small businesses are getting crushed by Trump’s tariffs and immigration chaos while health care carries the economy.

The shutdown means no official jobs data—just more chaos and uncertainty.

Tom Nichols says Trump is leading America into a full blown civil-military crisis. Senior military leaders must band together to object and refuse to obey Trump’s illegal orders. @ericowens.bsky.social
