@govpritzker.illinois.gov is a fascist collaborator using the Executive Branch of the State of Illinois to assist the federal occupation & terrorism against his own people.
Cook County deputies, Illinois State Police, and Broadview police just arrested at least 8 to 10 people, including several faith leaders.

State police in riot gear now arriving.

Does anyone know if you can vote in a Democratic primary in Illinois if you register as an independent?

Senator Durbin is getting ready to kick the football that Lucy (reprised by Leader Thune) is holding ready.
Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

COVID was the ruling classes experiment to see if people would give up on the social contract to prioritize themselves, once they saw people were willing to let disabled, elderly and poor people die for their own convenience, they have slowly taken the mask fully off day by day and now we are here.

Fun fact, the government reopening and the BBB both happened because Senate democrats voted for it.

Don’t forget, it’s not you or your life they have in mind when they vote.

i don't know why so many people are mad at the dems for folding. a leopard can't change its spots no more than a city rat can stop eating garbage.

a democratic senator capitulating is no more a surprise than a cat with a single brain cell deciding to vomit on the rug and the dog lapping it up

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

MSNBC reported Schumer's office felt that the longer that shutdown went on, the more likely it was that people would start to blame the Dems.

My kingdom for Democrats that don't govern out of fear. I've said it before and I'll say it again: The American people are far braver than their reps.

I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

To be clear: D senators trusting R senators who promise a vote on ACA subsidies at some future point is nothing more that a liar convincing a sucker. A sucker for believing the lie, and for believing that Johnson will ever bring it up in the House.

So Democrats get:

1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays

2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail

3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts

Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

I hope Dick Durbin is a source of shame for generations for the State of Illinois, its people, and whoever has the significant misfortune to be related to him.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means.

Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.

You in fact never ever ever have to hand it to David Axelrod or Rahm Emanuel and in fact they should be excluded so far from society that to say their names would merit expulsion
reminder David Axelrod and Rahm Emanuel both went on the record to Politico to say they were fine with this, either knowing the result would be mass death of children or being too dumb to know. Decide for yourself what’s worse!
