Homeland Security is trying to save Chicago from the scourge of tamale vendors and Uber drivers. These folks are not the "worst of the worst." Far from it. They help make our city work. If Trump's thugs wanted to rid Chicago of the worst of the worst, they'd put Greg Bovino on a plane out of town.

I’m still shocked that stories like this which come out daily still get largely ignored. The most corrupt person to ever hold any public office in US history. I will keep posting them every day and try to amplify them, even when most media doesn’t care. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

Tim Walz: "It's almost unimaginable that he's got Milei in there, giving him $20 billion, so that they can undercut us and China can buy their soybeans from them. And now China has learned they can replace our markets."

What early memories do you have that make you react even as an adult? I remember when I was 3 or 4, experimenting with food with my best friend, and we put salt and pepper in our bowls of neapolitan ice cream. To this day I can viscerally taste this memory and shudder.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

If Christian Nationalist parents are allowed to have their kids opt-out of any books that dare mention anyone gay, then all the other parents should be allowed to let their kids opt-out from the Ten Commandments.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

The reality that masked men without proper identification are confronting and arresting and taking away people should be intolerable to anyone who calls themselves American.

When a Government is scientifically illiterate, but doesn’t know it, then its actions (or inactions) can be a recipe for the dismantling of an informed and enlightened Democracy.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them.

DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it.

Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them.

Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it.

I blame every republican that still refuses to show any courage against a president that is clearly unwell and compromised.
