Illinois looks very different in 2025 than it did in 2019. We've passed six balanced budgets with nine credit upgrades, invested in education, driven economic growth, strengthened our social safety network, reformed the criminal justice system, and rebuilt our infrastructure.

NY law firm Sullivan & Cromwell is enthusiastically joining Donald Trump's effort to undermine the justice system. It’s sad to see a firm clients have long turned to for counsel on how to comply with the law rendering itself into an instrument for promoting lawlessness, I diacuss in PN.

I hope Kamala Harris gets her butt out there to fight against the monsters destroying our country. I donated money to her campaign and when the election was over she accepted the results and walked away. The election was hacked and she should have demanded a hand recount. very disappointed

There's this, there has been reporting that they got numbers wrong & massively overstated, by tens of billions, the amount of the fraud. But Trump & Musk are claiming that the federal gov't is incompetent? That it is full of fraud & waste? Give me the fed'l bureaucracy any day over these buffoons.

I was electrocuted, beaten, stabbed in the leg and starved after being captured while defending my home and family in Mariupol. We held back Putin’s invasion for several weeks while Russia slaughtered over 25,000 predominantly Russian speaking Ukrainians including women and children.

I welcome the agreement on our 16th package of sanctions. The EU is clamping down even harder on circumvention by targeting more vessels in Putin’s shadow fleet and imposing new import and export bans. We are committed to keep up the pressure on the Kremlin.
