Letting the health care tax credits expire would devastate American families — and we’re making that crystal clear by giving you the data. We’ve built graphics showing how much costs would rise in every GOP district. Let’s start with Mike Johnson (R-LA):

I am no expert, but there does seem to be one common denominator in all of these shootings. It is not race. It is not male/female. It is not mental health. It is not sexuality, LGBT etc.. It is not social standing. It is not religion. The common denominator is GUNS. More guns is not the answer.

War is still raging in Ukraine. Measles outbreak. US cities under siege. Gas, coffee, grocery prices are all up. No tax on tips. Value of the US dollar down. Radioactive shrimp? Millions thrown off health insurance while the plague makes a comeback... And still no Epstein files.

Hidden in Trump's Big, Beautiful Betrayal is a nasty provision that lets fossil fuel CEOs pay to have their environmental reviews fast-tracked and avoid judicial review. In Trump's America, polluters live above the law while public health and our environment suffer.

Donnie the Rump doesn't want anyone to talk about "How bad slavery was..." Slavery was: *Raping women for pleasure, & so they could produce more slaves *Murder *Savage beatings *Lynching of innocent men, women & children *Separation of families If you don't think that was bad, then fu*k you

Trump claiming slavery wasn't so bad is part of a pattern. It's a Christian Nationalist theme. Pete Hegseth's pastor Douglas Wilson, in addition to saying women shouldn't be able to vote, claimed that "there was a mutual affection between slaves and their masters."

Illinois stands up for the hard-won advances made for workers. The Pullman Strikes. The Haymarket Affair. It has been the people of this state who have led the charge for progress, not just for Illinois, but for the nation. We are ready to do it again — whatever it takes.

"Why would we turn the US military against American cities when we have police officers and law enforcement officials whose job it is? I understand that crime is a major issue, but it's not the military's job to be able to do that. We have law enforcement whose job it is to counteract crime."

There is no liking this version of our country. If you can afford to send your kid to a private school, then you can drive them or pay for their Ubers. But Dayton, Ohio decided to dump the burden on the public school kids instead and prioritized school buses for the private schools.

The Trump administration is reportedly planning to create a new task force of National Guard troops that it could quickly send to quell protests across the country. If President Trump carries out this gross abuse of power, we're ready to protect our rights guaranteed under the Constitution.
