Al gore is pissed off and I’m here for it

Maybe 42 isn't "young", but this is my first time stepping up as a candidate for any office. I'll be running for the Illinois House of Representatives, for District 102. This is a new and exciting challenge in my life, but when the freedom of your nation is on the line, you answer the call.

It’s one insane thing after another with RFK Jr….now it comes out that HHS planning to cut the National Suicide Hotline’s program for LGBTQ youth that gets 2,100 contacts per day….cruelty is the point with this heartless bastard www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The majority of people —56% in the US!—are worried about climate change, but not activated. Why not? Most feel helpless, hopeless, and don't know what to do. So more fear won't activate them. Rather, knowing what to do—and being invited to do it—will. Where to start? With a conversation today. 🧵

Finland just seems to get it right - education, housing. #TaxTheRich #ClassWar

"I look at war plans every single day" -- Pete Hegseth (we know dude, we've seen your Signal chats)

Federal workers who help resolve complicated problems for Affordable Care Act policyholders are among those recently cut by the Trump administration.

The mainstream media keeps trying to bring Sec Def Hegseth down by accurately reporting things he did.

Breaking News: Three federal prosecutors who worked on the criminal corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams said that they would resign rather than admit wrongdoing in refusing to abandon the case, according to an email obtained by The New York Times.

Q: "When you were a Navy pilot, what would have happened to you if you had shared a battle plan with a family member?" Sen. Mark Kelly: "I would have gotten fired. I would probably have been prosecuted...This is the most sensative information we have."

Will voters buy Mike Johnson’s argument that taking away America’s most vital health safety net program is the best way to help its most vulnerable citizens?

"Musk declared empathy to be 'the fundamental weakness of Western civilization' and said that 'we’ve got civilizational suicidal empathy going on.' Friedrich Nietzsche, call your office." And it's not just Musk. @cathyyoung63.bsky.social on the right's war on empathy:

Will Cain: “You just said Donald Trump made a statement about wanting to deport American citizens. I have not seen that statement…I would love to see that clip.” *Trump on multiple occasions, including on Fox News, saying he would love to deport homegrown criminals*

So on top of tanking the stock market and the economy, making things more expensive with a tariff war, and firing thousands upon thousands of people, The DOE is going to start garnishing wages for student loans. They could just make college free, but no. Let's make surviving even harder!

"Americans have always had nuanced views of immigration and they usually don’t include disappearing innocent men to El Salvador or stripping U.S. citizens of their rights."

KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

Trump got his criminal due process. So does everyone else. That is how our constitution works and we WILL respect it! If trump wants to deport criminals illegally then he should lead by example and be the first to go.

Pope Francis was a master of making emotional connections. He was, at heart, a pastor to wounded souls. Here are some of the most memorable moments of Pope Francis' papacy.

Workers who track data on car crashes, drownings, traumatic brain injury, falls in the elderly, and other perils lost their jobs. Advocates worry life-saving work will stop.

BREAKING NEWS: The White House has begun the process of looking for a new secretary of defense, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to speak publicly.

This is a turning point for Canada. If we let one leader trample the Charter, we risk losing the very rights that make us Canadian. Tell Poilievre to never use the notwithstanding clause to override our rights. Defend the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, defend Canada. #cdnpoli

Such strong support for Liberal party candidate Emma Harrison 🇨🇦 in Peterborough. #cdnpoli

Just one week after its recommendation, the Coeur d'Alene City Attorney's Office has filed charges against six men involved in the forced removal of a woman at a Kootenai County town hall in February. www.kivitv.com/news/six-men...
