If elected officials don't get on board with a general strike, If celebrities don't get on board with a general strike, If influencers don't get on board with a general strike, If folks with wealth and power and fame don't get on board with a general strike... WE DO IT ANYWAY.

A decade ago, Illinois was plunged into a budget impasse that disrupted the lives of working families. The times have changed — nine credit upgrades, seven balanced budgets, a $2.5 billion Rainy Day Fund, jobs at an all-time high, and a growing economy.

Unbelievably horrified by this attack in Boulder. We don’t know the full story of the attacker, but no matter what it is, let me be clear: Senseless, antisemitic attacks do not help Palestinians, Jews, or Israelis. Committing terror attacks against people standing for hostages is disgusting.

Last year, Illinois abolished requiring prior authorization for inpatient mental health care — and now, we're extending it to outpatient care. Patients and their doctors should be in control of decisions about their care, not insurance companies.

I want a COVID booster. Why? So I can avoid getting sick, be able to remain at work and care for patients, and not get other people sick, including the elderly and immunocompromised, who could die from COVID. You know, that thing where you do something bc you care about people besides yourself.

The ignorant, fragile man-child who couldn't admit he lost an election also can't admit he doesn't know how tariffs work. This is why we're screwed.

Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

Biden did a lot for cancer trying to reduce cancer mortality with his Cancer Moonshot initiative. Cancer truly is the worst. I wish him recovery. This is a terrible diagnosis.

We were at the #HandsAcrossChicago from Aurora IL to downtown Chicago. Pro Democracy attendees, and driveby motorists, were energetic and positive. Lots of waves, thumbs up, and peace signs. MAGAs driving by seemed agitated. @jenpsaki.msnbc.com @chrislhayes.bsky.social

Hey MAGA, if Trump said the tariffs are paid for by the other country, why did he tell Walmart to "EAT THE TARIFFS"? See how dumb you mfs are??

Let me make this simple: 1) People have been fired - our economy & governmental services have been interrupted because of the firings. 2) The proposed budget includes - cuts to federal worker’s benefits, cuts to Medicaid, cuts to food assistance, & deep tax cuts for the RICH,

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane. Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

When we read that a budget proposal plans to cut $500 million from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency—CISA—the nation’s top entity for protecting election hacking, we think “why are we pulling the pins out of voter security & integrity?” It makes no sense. @lwvus.bsky.social

Duffy’s full of it. Pete Buttigieg and Dems pushed to modernize our air traffic control system under Biden—Republicans in Congress blocked it. The Trump administration’s been too busy blaming DEI instead of fixing the real problems.

He’s publicly taking bribes from foreign governments. With zero shame. He’s threatening martial law. *He’s threatening to arrest members of Congress. This is not normal. This is autocratic corruption. We have to stop them & hold them accountable.

Another political stunt. Trump scrapped Biden’s drug cost reforms, then rebranded similar policies as his own. It’s just a repackaged fix for a problem he created. Apparently this was his big announcement and MAGA will praise him for “fixing” the cost of drugs. www.cnn.com/2025/05/11/p...

could someone check with John Roberts whether accepting a $400 million plane for your personal use is a core executive power that congress may not constitutionally regulate or merely an action for which the president is presumptively immune from any accountability?

Homan's grandfather and his father were cops. He was a cop. He has a degree in criminal justice. HE KNOWS HE'S BREAKING THE LAW. The excuse that he is following orders is bullshit. An unlawful order does not authorize him to break the law. Homan is culpable and one day will be held accountable.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet. Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nation’s capacity to conduct climate research.
