The numbers are clear. The State of Illinois hit $2 billion in record-setting cannabis sales, generating more than $490 million in tax revenue. Five years after we legalized adult-use cannabis, we’re seeing the economic impact of a thriving cannabis industry.

ICE raids in schools, hospitals, and churches are turning places of learning, healing, and worship into places of fear and suffering. Our Protecting Sensitive Locations Act would ban ICE from conducting enforcement actions from within 1000 feet of these sacred spaces.

Connolly: "The public did not give Trump a mandate to dismantle whole chunks of the federal govt. It gave him a mandate to kick the tires, check the dipstick, and make sure things are running well and efficiently. What Elon Musk is doing is way beyond any mandate that Trump could possibly claim."

Connolly: "There's a difference between cutting waste fraud and abuse, and dismantling whole agencies. No one gave Trump, no one gave Elon Musk that authority. It is unconstitutional. It is unlawful. It is a violation of Article 1. And we're gonna fight it."

USAid pays $.05 per condom. $15,000,000 = 300,000,000 condoms. There are 75,000 members of the taliban. That works out to roughly 4,000 condoms for every member of the Taliban. The Trump Regime lies horribly. I mean they REALLY SUCK at lying.

I actually hope that Gavin Newsom decides to withhold federal taxes this year. Red states cannot function without the financial support of blue states like California and New York. No human rights for ALL in red states? Then no big blue dollars for your social programs.
