Even Mother Nature is done with Felon47’s bullshit.

Kinda wild that we all get to pay taxes to fund a civil war against us

Five months ago, Evanston became a Welcoming City. Today, we've learned that the Evanston PD shared its network of license plate data with at least seven out-of-state agencies conducting immigration searches in Illinois cities.

TRUMP IS UPSET As America gives Trump the finger ("No Kings") and his Frye Festival military parade proves an absolute bust and embarrassment, in tantrum mode, he's doubling down on immigrants, legal and otherwise, and targeting Blue cities: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts? Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

Lawmakers in Congress should not be buying, trading, and owning individual stocks. Period. It’s long past time to BAN Congressional stock trading.

Italian singer Adriano Celentano released a song in the 70s with nonsensical lyrics meant to sound like American English — to prove that Italians would just love any American song. It was a hit.

ICE TRIED TO ROLL OUT IN Manhattan-New Yorkers said "NAH" AND SENT THEM BACK INSIDE!!

okay but the thing about the CIA is that the mythology of the agency belies the reality, which is that for much of its existence it was a rubber room for WASP failsons and their operations reflect this

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.

Making these very American buttons to hand out Saturday

“As a veteran my oath was to uphold the constitution,” he said. “That’s what I’m here to do... "If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. You need to come out. A silent voice is just as bad as no voice at all.” www.wave3.com/2025/06/10/t...

Important facts to know….

Reminder that seven Democratic senators voted to confirm Kristi Noem and six Dem senators declined to vote either way. She was confirmed, 59-34. The good faith experiment is clearly over, and we need the Democratic senators who didn't stand against her nomination to be loud as hell right now.

This is absolutely insane, and criminal. Everyone, especially a Senator representing the state, has a right to speak out. The fact that the agents felt protected in acting this way says everything. We’re quickly traversing a dangerous path

Don't let them lie to you about Senator Padilla. DHS is claiming the agents DID NOT KNOW he was a senator. He CLEARLY says (BEFORE he is tackled and cuffed) "I am Senator Alex Padilla and I have a question for the secretary."

"we have a Constitution and we follow it" Secretary Puppy Killer lying in a press conference. Multiple court decisions clear evidence they are not following the Constitution.

Booker: He was made to kneel before the authority of the executive… They treated a member of the United States senate violently after he identified himself, dragged him out of a room, threw him upon the ground, and put him in handcuffs

What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)

Boebert: What we’re seeing in LA is an insurrection Pritzker: You don’t know understand what insurrection is. It is outrageous that you are asking that when you are the one condoning the pardoning of people that attacked police.
