🚨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. ✊🏼

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...

The vindictive prosecutions of political enemies are not a distraction from the Epstein files - they’re one and the same: wielding the power of the DoJ to persecute your foes AND to protect your friends.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

Sorry, but if you're saying those implausible and shallow Kemi Badenoch announcements constitute a good speech then you're part of the UK's political problem.

Same half-baked "tax cut good / international commitments bad" bearing no resemblance to well formed policy.

Putin often claims that sanctions hurt the West more than they hurt Russia, but he also keeps asking us to remove them. If that were really true, he’d be asking for more sanctions, not fewer
