And they want to try this in Chicago?

Taking a sub to the chest is nothing compared to catching a 60-pound deep dish pizza.

Here’s a New York Times photo of the Chicago “No Kings” rally. NYT said the march that followed spanned at least 10 blocks.

We will not blindly follow illegal orders because Donald Trump wrote them down on a piece of paper.

Fun fact: Trump's first CMS chief was mired in numerous ethical complaints around millions in suspicious spending. Then 2 days before Biden was sworn in, lost her phone (and all the data on it), forgot her password, and accidentally had it remote wiped.
