What exactly will it take for Congress to invoke the 25th amendment? How much more devastation must our country endure before the powers that be take action? The east wing of the White House is currently being demolished. Trump has published an AI video of him literally shitting on Americans.

Why aren’t democrats doing something about getting food to people in need? Helping to set up food banks, communicating where people can go to get food, etc.? I’m so sick of democrats saying there’s nothing they can do.

As governor, I have made it a priority to not only protect but also promote the fundamental right of women to choose if and when and how they will have children.

Every woman should be informed, empowered, and supported when she makes that decision.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

If only every blue state governor would follow Newsom’s lead. Do the democrats even know how to fight fire with fire?

If you watch one thing today, make it this. These workers are risking their lives to build our cities and getting paid like their time, safety, and dignity don’t matter. They deserve fair pay. They deserve respect.
He builds our city but the companies he works for treat him like he’s disposable. 80-hour weeks. Paychecks worth what 20 hours should earn. No sick leave. No safety. No dignity.
This isn’t the “American dream.” It’s wage theft in plain sight. Watch. Share. Demand change.

The right to vote, regardless of sex, is non-negotiable, it’s the core of the democracy our service members defend. If Pete Hegseth believes that women shouldn’t have that right, he needs to explain how he can uphold the Constitution and why he’s fit to command women in uniform.

Nothing says “we support cruelty, hate snd lawlessness” quite like these pictures.
Who the hell are these people?

Nothing says ‘family fun’ like posing in front of a concentration camp. Welcome to Alligator Alcatraz, where cruelty meets tourism?

I want you all to know that Illinois is and will always be a safe haven for reproductive freedom.

The Supreme Court's Dobbs decision didn't end abortion in America — instead, states like ours are leading the charge in ensuring your rights are protected.
How the States We Govern Have Stepped Up Since Dobbs
The Dobbs decision didn’t end abortion in America. It just redrew the battle lines, write governors JB Pritzker and Michelle Lujan Grisham.

Disgusting!!
Illinois Republicans like Rep. Mary Miller, Rep. Mike Bost, and Rep. Darin LaHood just voted to take away health care from 13.7 million people — the majority working people simply without insurance.

Why? All to give Trump’s friends at Mar-a-Lago another tax break. It’s shameful.

No one has heard from you in 63 days.

This!!! As a consultant , I heard senior executives espouse over and over how important their employees were, and then they nixed any recommendations that would actually benefit employees and the culture. It was all about the shareholders and profits. It was rarely about the employees.
