THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.
I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

Open enrollment for ACA plans began yesterday in Idaho.
One couple got notice that their monthly premium next year would jump from $51 to $2,232 as subsidies expire.
25,000 Idahoans are expected to be priced out of coverage.
This is what's at stake in Trump's shutdown.

Very interesting. Pritzker is making sure Illinois is ready
And to be clear this has been going on for some time. There are many segments of the party doing serious, strategic work.
"Twenty-three Democratic attorneys general now gather on near-daily Zoom calls at 8 AM Pacific, which means the East Coast officials are already on their third coffee. They divide responsibilities and share templates for lawsuits they’ve been drafting since last spring."

"I" gave the Governor of Maryland money? I'm pretty sure those were taxpayer dollars. Your money. My money. Not King Trump's money.

Did you know there’s a special election THIS Tuesday in Iowa that could break the GOP super majority in the Iowa state senate?
I had no idea.
Just saw it on Tik Tok.
Now…just out of curiosity, do you think the DNC should have rallied national Dems to support this election?

Nick Fuentes rips Trump for releasing the MLK assassination files instead of the Epstein to distract — he says a “Dem Avalanche” is what Republicans deserve for this: “‘Nobody should vote for Trump or Republicans.”

It would be great if @durbin.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov & others on SJC ask Emil Bove whether--given Bove's own claim that Eric Adams couldn't be prosecuted bc it would amount to election interference--whether Trump just interfered in NYC Mayoral election & if so, whether he'll charge Trump.
