ICE has been cracking down hard across the vast expanse of the greater Chicago area, and I wrote a little bit about what you need to understand about what it’s like here now. Plus, I compiled some resources for locals to get alerts and whistles. dansinker.com/posts/202…

"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational."-Charlie Kirk in 2023, after 6 ppl (inc. 3 children) were shot & killed in a Nashville school

This is the line that Dems need to push. It can't be simply. "Political violence is bad" it MUST be "Political violence is bad and Trump and his ilk are responsible for creating conditions ripe for political violence"
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) on the shooting of Charlie Kirk:

"Political violence, unfortunately, has ramped up in this country ... I think there are people who are fomenting it in this country. I think the president's rhetoric often foments it."

This is worth 3 minutes of your time. No one wants to eat at a restaurant that only serves bland chicken. (It’s not about chicken, or restaurants, tho)

CBS on the cardinals: "One thing we know they're not doing is checking Instagram because their devices have all been confiscated. I believe the kids call it rawdogging."

It annoys me when people compare Trump to a toddler. My toddler has done plenty of things Trump has never done, like go grocery shopping and calm down after throwing a tantrum.

It's only panican if it comes from the Paniqué region of France. Otherwise, it's just sparkling common sense.

"I didn't vote for" you did. Sorry. You did. Should have listened to the woke libtards instead of your roided out imaginary friends who told you kids were pooping in kitty litter at school

I’m sure the young guys who’ve been told the world owes them an easy life will jump at the chance to work a twelve hour shift at a blast furnace
White dudes are just bored, that’s why we need to destroy the economy.

Every day I think "I could not possibly hate this man more" and every day this man is like "challenge accepted, bitch".
Trump: "We don't need Canada's lumber. So what I'm doing is I'll be signing an executive order freeing up our forests so that we're allowed to take down trees and make a lot of money and then re-harvest trees ... we don't need anything from Canada."

That's my mayor. I'm not even Catholic anymore, but showing up with the Ash Wednesday cross and nursing baby is such a Boston b*tch power move that sometimes I forget she's originally from Chicago.

(This is how people from Boston do compliments.)

The timeline: Now that's what I call a lack of IMAGINATION.

This is a hell of a video and extremely relevant with Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Republicans slashing life saving jobs. Another round of layoffs at the VA: 1,400 more people.
