Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

WATCH: “The president and DOJ just deleted the study from the website.”

@jwilliamj8.bsky.social & @thejaampod.bsky.social crew note Trump’s DOJ conspicuously deleted a study that shows far-right extremist violence is actually far more prevalent. (Backed up by CATO, Grok, etc)

This is the most inept administration to let the government shut down. Is it because then there will not be a vote to release the Epstein files? This regime is holding us hostage and Mike Johnson is enabling it to the detriment of Americans! We deserve better than this! #ThisIsTrumpsShutdown

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Dismantling the Department of Education has nothing to do with improving outcomes for our kids, it’s simply about taking away resources from our public schools.

Wave my magic wand: I wish Lego instructions indicated on their parts list which parts are completely interior and can be subbed for a different color. I have tons of loose bricks. I don't want to order specific colors if I don't need to.
