Donald Trump’s tariffs are bad for the economy—repost if you agree.

Is it time to restructure the Senate (amend the Constitution) and give more populous states more representation; Maybe give states 2-5 senators depending on population? It’s ridiculous that Wyoming (pop. 588,000) and California (pop. 39,430,000) have equal representation in the Senate.

I feel like we asked you as Illinois residents to not let that happen a few weeks ago but yeah Dick here we are. What do you intend to do about it?
The Trump Administration wants to cut our health agencies by 30%. What does this mean?
- Decimating medical research
- Less inspections of food facilities
- Ending HIV/AIDS initiatives
- Abuse and Mental Health Services won't be funded
This will hurt Americans.

what a group of absolute LOSERS who had to LITERALLY CHANGE POLICY and CHEAT THE SYSTEM in order to get a win.
at this point if you’re a democratic representative or senator and you’ve voted along with any of the unamerican policies created by the dirty shriveled cocks disguised as “republicans” then youre on the wrong side of history

BREAKING: Voters in the second biggest city in Illinois have ousted their Trump-aligned mayor.
Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin, who ran for governor as a Republican in 2022, has lost to challenger John Laesch.

The smallest bit of hope was restored in me last night after seeing Aurora, IL replace Richard Irvin as mayor. The people need deeper investment in community, not corporation, and the people of this great city stood up and said enough is enough. Congratulations newly elected John Laesch!

Cory Booker is giving a masterclass in how Democrats should be fighting right now—standing firm, refusing to back down, and laying bare the personal stories of lives wrecked by Trump, Musk, and the GOP.

Trump is trying to change the conversation from tariffs, the economy, and the Hegseth scandal. Any conversation about him running for a 3rd term is still 2 years away. He is trying to distract and get the media off of the headlines currently dominating the news cycle. Don't take the bait.

What we saw last night in the Senate was outrageous! When an arsonist is burning down your house, you don’t write them a check for more fuel.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

What about the democratic senators who don’t listen to the overwhelming majority of constituents?
Illinoisans know all too well what happens when Republicans are reckless and play politics with people's livelihoods.
Make no mistake: people will suffer the consequences of their negligence.

Start going by Richard because you can’t go by Dick without a pair
I will continue to fight against Donald Trump’s reckless, and in many instances, illegal attempts to gut the federal government. He is testing our system of checks and balances like they haven’t been tested in my lifetime. The fight continues.

We are dealing with a Trump “regime” and not a “government by the people and for the people.” The Trump regime is “against the people.” The “government” is already shut down by Trump. Do not support a CR that is complicit with an authoritarian regime.

Ouch. Republican Representative Tom Barrett held a tele-town hall with his constituents in his swing district in Michigan on Monday and ran a survey asking if they support DOGE.
70% of the participants said they do not.
