J.B. Pritzker is 100% right.

Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."

It isn't until the 26th paragraph that there is mention that what Trump is doing is being challenged as illegal. And it accepts Trump's stated rationale to act.

Here is what I think: Trump is illegally deploying the military in blue cities to set the stage to interfere with the 2026 elections.

Thank you.
These dumb ass replies make me even more concerned for our future. People think that simply yelling their extreme frustrations louder, at everyone, is the solution. He's not saying he agrees. He's explaining their psyche the way he sees it. Keep attacking allies, makes sense fools. We're doomed.

Dems aren’t going to convince non voters to vote or independents that voted for Trump to vote dem if they call them cult members and hateful. Thats counterproductive.

It’s simple. Do you hate Trump enough to do what it takes to win in 2026

His supporters vote. Dems are going to have to convince a lot of them to change their votes to your candidates.

Calling them a cult, stupid, hateful etc is going to change their vote ?

Either you want to win or not
Bro what is even the point of this.

Destroying government records is illegal and the people doing it should face grievous consequences. The attorneys overseeing it should be disbarred.
The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts.

Those entrusted to enforce our Congress’s laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.

Jeffrey Epstein died in his jail cell in 2019. The prison tapes have been shown to be edited.

Trump was in control of the FBI and the Justice Department in 2019. Trump had the power to have Jeffrey Epstein silenced in 2019. Nobody else.

Trying to hit the sack, but this keeps pulling me back. Elon Musk just chimed in, calling out Trump for stirring up the Epstein files drama, then demanding he release the files already.

From campaigning on the Epstein files to now claiming they are a left-wing Democrat hoax.

There is definitely something in those files that implicates Trump badly.

Stephen Miller spent millions of federal dollars to do a "show of force" in a quiet Los Angeles public park while the administration tells Texas it doesn't have the money to help them handle this nightmare.

I'm really hoping to see some newspapers/elected officials state this obvious point.

This is bona fide Russian propaganda written by someone closely aligned with Moscow.
Last summer, Ukraine’s surprise incursion into western Russia’s Kursk Province turned it into a battlefield. Russian forces are back in control of Kursk, but the devastation has fueled anger within the community against the Russian authorities, as well as against Ukraine and its Western supporters.

A few things are clear from this:
1. Trump has lost control of the narrative.
2. Trump is panicked about what is in the Epstein files.
3. When the files get released, Trump will say they are forgeries.
4. Trump is going to target Democrats with political prosecutions.
