Governor Pritzker nails it: scapegoating our neighbors won’t solve a single problem. Discrimination doesn’t build, it destroys. When the dust settles, we’ll still be staring at the same issues we refused to face.👇

Why is ICE arresting employees but not employers? DOJ policy is to charge the most culpable people. The employers would seem to qualify.

Tanks being moved into DC. National guard being mobilized in LA. Paramilitary thugs being unleashed across America. It's summer in America in fascism is in full bloom.

Men, how do you feel knowing if you and your wife get pregnant and there is an emergency, the hospital has government permission to let her die rather than use life-saving medical procedures? are you equipped to raise the children you already have? pay for a funeral? bury your wife? Is this ok?

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

This part

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

Trump Always Chickens Out TACO.

It’s clear that Trump will sign anything his handlers put in front of him. 🖊️ 📖 Republicans attempted to HIDE Reagan’s DEMENTIA for years. 🤨 …why is the press largely IGNORING Trump’s OBVIOUS DEMENTIA…are they too AFRAID to confront it… 🤔 This man has the nuclear ☢️ codes… 🚀 💣 … 😳

When they say ‘get over slavery’ yet they put up reminders everywhere. It’s constant abuse. How can anyone move on?!!

I’m losing my fucking mind. Dem Donors: We don’t need to spend $20M to study young men. We simply need to equip youth organizations with the resources needed to compete. We got outspent 10:1 in 2024. If you want to fix erosion with young men, you gotta fix that.

But we've got $90M for him to throw a parade for himself?

The cruelty is the point.

So we’ve got $90 million to throw the parade he wanted, but we don’t have the money to fix North Carolina. Got it!

GOP grifters…

Good Morning to everyone who knows the Felon’s Congress passed his budget bill, adding 3.8Trillion to the budget. Cuts to safety net programs like Medicaid and Snap. Congress does what Trump demands. Feed the rich, starve the poor. Want better? Vote better! #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1

I really don't care, do you?

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding. Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.

Legacy media sucks. Why did I have to find out that seven people died while in custody of ICE via a video from a lesser known news source but I can tell you exactly what the orange Cheeto is doing every second of every day

They won’t even call him the crazy that he so obviously has become.

86 means dump or throw away. It has nothing to do with assassination. So the message was dump trump. Impeach Vote out republicans mid term house and senate. Keep having town halls Protest There are ways to dump trump

Please give our younger generation credit They see with their hearts not with their prejudices They work twice as hard to get half as farThey have huge expectations placed on them with little preparation, have long lifespans that are scary/ intimidating. Lift them up, please.They will save us

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.

ICE is the Gestapo. Full stop.

Speak Truth.....

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.
