Giannoulias was also behind legislation that allows non-citizen residents, including undocumented immigrants, to obtain a standard driver's license or state ID — that ensures all drivers pass a test and do so safely.

Identification cards and drivers licenses are a great idea for non-citizen residents. It helps make sure drivers know how to drive. Trump would force these same people into a new underground. Hopefully the successor to Giannoulias safeguards this info as well.
Trump is talking about the DOJ going after state officials who defy him. I doubt the DOJ will try very hard, and the courts are likely to take a dim view of the idea as well.
time for master classes on Boycotting. It worked during Martin Luther King era and That was a time of impossibly difficult barriers to overcome.
If it worked then, it will worked even better up against sociopathic, greed-addicted oligarchs.
I so want to move to Illinois or Minnesota. Tony Evers is great and so is our AG. Illinois and Minnesota seem to be less MAGA. Especially Minnesota. It’s kind of the choice of worse winters or dying in a tornado. I prefer the cold 🥶
I’m in Wisconsin the weather difference isn’t too much. Plus I have family in Minnesota and I’m the fan of their Governor. But JB Pritzger was my pick originally as Kamala’s running mate because he is a billionaire democrat!!!
What’s the temperature like in Wisconsin? While I love Minnesota I want to be by water but not Duluth. I was thinking about Milwaukee. But I don’t want to move from Nebraska (frying pan into the fire)
Plus another blue vote in Wisconsin wouldn’t hurt
I have lived in Wi 60 years the secret is layers and pack extra clothes, kitty litter and blankets in the car if you have to go out. Hot hands in the car. I’m a pro.
Illinois is great if you’re in the northern part. Anything south of I74 is magaland and you would be a blue dot in a wave of ignorance. It’s not fun being the dot.
Let me just clear the air, big cities, growing areas and the major metro area are LIBERAL as hell, every other place and county is MAGA country. Be careful where you move. We would love to have you in Urbana/Champaign!
Illinois is fabulous! If you don’t want to live right in the city (Chicago) there are plenty of great burbs with blue minded folks. But I agree with what others have said - south of I-80 is bright red!
Yes, and this thing is inexorably heading to a national divorce. People are sorting themselves in the states according to their political preference. Republicans are moving to red states, Democrats, to blue states. Soon there won't be any "purple" states anymore. There will be two United States.
I’d love to move out of the USA- but our entire family is grounded here. So yes, we fight like hell to preserve what too many died to get.

I dunno. I love in Tennessee a BIG red state and there's a pile of folks from California moving to Tennessee......they can buy more for less money. More land more house, etc. much lower cost of living.
You may be right, maybe I'm not seeing some things but then again......
Not everyone can move for a long list of reasons. Financial is a major one. Moving costs - Housing, mortgage rates, rental prices too. Health another. Try selling a condo in FL right now.
We would need housing/job plan for refugees and I'm not exaggerating. Have to move over 1,000 miles

DO SOMETHING
Whatever hurts their bottom lines changes things!
A GENERAL STRIKE would change this shit within days!

They won't even understand why the Leopard is eating THEIR face!
Let's leave Stupid Motherfuckers in the dust, where they belong.
We could've been exploring the stars by now, not worrying about slamming into the Great Filter.
