Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

“The root that tears apart your house’s foundation begins as a seed. A seed of distrust and hate and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship a lifetime ago in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.” —JB Pritzker

"Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage." - JB Pritzker, Illinois Gov.

We need more people like Gov JB Pritzker in DC, in Congress, where too many politicians are sitting down in silence, watching as their nation is destroyed from within.

JB Pritzker is ready for a street fight.

“We don't have kings in America, and I don't intend to bend the knee to one.” - JB Pritzker, Governor of Illinois

“After we’ve discriminated against, deported, or disparaged all the immigrants, the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women, and minorities. Once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends… what comes next?” - Gov. JB Pritzker

JB Pritzker NAILED it! "We don't have kings in America, and I don't intend to bend the knee to one." 🙌

“Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!”

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

Duckworth: "He essentially just surrendered to Putin."

Trump’s appeasement of Putin is a disgraceful surrender to Russia, an outright betrayal of Ukraine, and a stark warning to the world that America under Trump is no longer the defender of democracy but a willing collaborator with a terrorist state. My latest...

Trump handed massive tax cuts to the rich in 2017. Now he's planning even more cuts. How are Trump and MAGA Republicans planning to pay for them? By making it harder for millions of Americans to access Medicaid, food stamps, and other federal programs. Trickle up economics.

Let's get this straight. Trump took credit for stock market and job gains under Biden— But inflation during his presidency? Not his fault. Got it.

The jobs of FEMA employees tied to climate change and related hazards are next on the chopping block

He didn't say that. And if he did, he didn’t mean it. And if he did mean it, you didn’t understand. And if you did, it’s not a big deal. And if it is, others have said worse.

MARCO RUBIO IN 2017: "Foreign Aid is not charity. We must make sure it is well spent, but it is less than 1% of budget & critical to our national security.” MARCO RUBIO IN 2025: "USAID is a global charity."

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy unexpectedly canceled his visit to Saudi Arabia where he was to be briefed about the outcome of talks between the US and Russia on the future of his country

According to @timmiller.bsky.social, Trump is displaying the kind of energy Democrats need to show. Listen / subscribe: link.chtbl.com/2NHNIxjP

Hundreds of asylum seekers were deported from the U.S. to Panama and locked in a hotel without access to lawyers, or their own passports.

A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, our healthcare, and the information we receive. Many are now currying favor with Trump to avoid accountability and maintain their power. This is what oligarchy looks like.

AOC clapped back at Tom Homan — More of this.

DOGE having access to Americans' Social Security data isn't just a major security breach. It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "waste and fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires another giant tax cut. Be warned.

Imagine, by the time Donald and Elon break up, Elon will have all of Trump's financial records and tax information in his back pocket. Then we will see all of Trump's tax returns.

Plain & simple…

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Trump wants to extend his tax cuts for rich individuals, which would add $4.6T to the deficit. But he wants to go even further, cutting the corporate tax rate to 15%. It's yet another absolutely shameless giveaway.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Donald Trump's face color today registers as color hex #a98158, aptly named Dusty Amber. Definition: Dusty Amber is a muted and earthy shade of orange, reminiscent of sunbaked clay and dried leaves...
