“Instead of showing great savings, DOGE’s claims reveal just how poorly Musk and his team understand the work of the federal government.”

Social Security isn't sending checks to dead people over 120. Tariffs aren't beautiful, but they are raising prices on groceries, beer, and cars. Elon Musk is taking away veterans' healthcare and childcare for families. Presidents are supposed to be truth-tellers, not liars.

Call it by its name: Trumpcession.

Your Monday reminder that Roy is a good boy.

The 77 million Americans who voted for Trump committed an unforgivable act of vandalism against the entire world.

Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are threatening the health care of 3.4 million Illinoisans to give tax breaks to the rich. People will be stripped of lifesaving care. People will die – and blood will be on their hands.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Crockett: Mr. President, guess what? Russia invaded Ukraine. Can we at least agree on that one? Facts matter. Is there anybody in here that has enough courage to say Russia invaded Ukraine? …. Crockett: This is the problem

I’m demanding answers, alongside members of the Illinois federal delegation, from the Trump administration for ignoring court orders to release almost $1.88 billion in federal funding for our state. If they can't hold their end of the deal, Illinoisans deserve to know.

Tilly contains multitudes.

Illinois respects the sovereignty and borders of Ukraine — now and always.
 Three years ago, Russia invaded Ukraine without warning or provocation. Peace and freedom requires resistance to tyranny and oppression. 
 Slava Ukraini!

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Donald Trump ran on the promise that he'd lower costs. Instead, Illinoisans are paying the price of the Trump’s Tax on Working Families. And worst of all, he'll keep taking away health care, child care, and more for the middle class – all for his friends at Mar-a-Lago.

Penny for your thoughts…How much does it cost to make a nickel?

President Trump’s executive order freezing most U.S. foreign aid for 90 days has thrown into turmoil programs that fight starvation and deadly diseases, run clinical trials and seek to provide shelter for millions of displaced people. Here’s what to know.

Golden hour. Golden dog. Roy.

May your actions flow from your intentions this week. #mondaymantra

If you're wondering what PROOF is working on now, I'm attempting to—on an emergency basis—put together a massive report on what exactly the scope of the current coup is. Our government is fighting a _civil war_, and the insurrectionists are winning. I will try to outline exactly what is happening.

I think it’s time to impeach Musk.

May I find the light. May I hold the light. May the light warm me. May I grow the light. May I share the light. May the light guide me. May I be the light.

Sitting rehearsal going well today. Lucy. Roy. Tilly.

I think Roy and Tilly are going to get along just fine.

Roy. My guy.

It’s official. Say “hello” to Tilly, our newest family member.

It’s great to see you. I mean it. Let’s face it. With the uncertainty of life in general and the world in particular, it’s nothing short of wonderful to see and be seen. And I’m glad you’re here.

More like the Golf of America.

I wonder what a dozen eggs costs in Greenland.

Take a screenshot of this GIF, and whichever new word you land on is YOUR word for 2025. May the odds be ever in your favor.

Holiday dog doodles.

Naps with pineapple. Roy & Lucy.

Relaxing Sunday, Roy-style.

Good night.
