The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.

The amount of people who make millions in a “healthcare” job but have never once actually cared for a patient is a shameless and extraordinarily high number

I know many of them, hoping to fake it till they make it

Enough of their fake expertise and 7 figure + salaries. We don’t need or want you.

We are a nation under duress. People are being taken from their homes, from grocery stores, from safe places. People with no prior criminal history. People who have active cases for citizenship or asylum.

Today, Republicans made clear they are more afraid of Trump than the People.

They’ve pledged allegiance not to America, but to the Trump regime and its billionaire backers.

This is a betrayal—and a mistake.

America is resilient, and the people will not go quietly.

This fight has only just begun.

78 medical societies, including the American Medical Association, strongly endorsed existing seasonal vaccination guidelines.

The leading coalition of American health insurers also committed to providing uninterrupted coverage for these same vaccines.

Civil society is standing up 💪

In response to RFK loading up the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee with anti-vaxxers, medical societies, local health departments, and advocacy groups are working to preserve vaccine access by ordering vaccines directly from manufacturers and emphasizing vaccine guidance from medical associations.

For those unconditionally cheering the attacks on Iran, remember that our early strikes in Afghanistan and Iraq were “successful”. But we ended up getting dragged into costly wars that created more terrorists than we killed. The American people haven’t forgotten that.

For Trump, a military conflict with Iran would distract from: 

-Sinking poll numbers
-A devastating (and unpopular) budget bill
-Harmful trade wars 
-Unleashing the military on American soil
-Millions of people protesting his authoritarianism

We must remain on high alert.

We’re announcing new legislation — the No Secret Police Act (SB 627) — to ban local/state/federal law enforcement, w/ some exceptions, from covering their faces when interacting w/ the public & require them to wear identifying info.

The secret police behavior we’re seeing destroys trust & must end🧵

“I told him it was brutal and cruel.”

Minnesota Senator @tinasmithmn (D) pulled Utah’s @senmikelee out of a Republican meeting and confronted him for his ugly tweets blaming Democrats for the shootings of Dems in Minnesota — by a man friends say was a staunch conservative.
