Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

"In my work with the defendants at the Nuremberg Trials 1945-1949 I was searching for the nature of evil and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy...Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy." -Captain G. M. Gilbert, US Army psychologist

It’s strange to watch Americans memorialize soldiers who died for democracy whilst they giddily embrace fascism.

Angus: Well, Donald Trump, I’m going to say this once—and I might never say it again—I want to thank you. I want to thank you for bringing Canada together. It took a malignant narcissistic slug like you to make us put aside all our differences

Husband is "making dinner," and by that I mean he's got rubs on the grill. I swear to the gods, he has opened every cabinet/pantry door, dropped no less than 4 utensils, and has asked me where at least 5 things are (same place as always...). Sides are almost ready, but "he" is making dinner. IYKYK.

Rep. Jayapal: "If you try to eliminate birthright citizenship, jail people for free speech, slash funding, use Cold War-era regulations to do mass deportations, then yeah. You're going to get nationwide injunctions. So maybe if you don't like the injunctions, stop doing the illegal stuff."

Cory Booker's ongoing hold on the floor should be live-streamed into every high school in America so they can see part of the democratic process works, hear the truths that he and others are repeating, and realize that everything going on in the country is not just being ignored.

No matter what side of the aisle you are on, you should be appalled that a billionaire thinks he has the right to buy elections like this.

Rural hospitals across the nation depend on Medicaid to stay open. Illinois' hospitals and health systems support 445,000 full-time jobs and anchor our rural communities. If these cuts happen, hospitals will close and people will lose their jobs.

Pritzker: The question I ask is: if you’re willing to hand the keys to Europe over to Putin, what’s next? How does the US retain its leadership in the world when he’s essentially retreating to our own borders? He’s even made enemies of the Canadians—I can’t imagine anything more telling than that.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Canada is a country of the rule of law. Canada is a country of democracy. Canada will never kiss that gangster’s ring.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I think Marco Rubio probably needs to be sent back to school.. When you arbitrarily rip up trade agreements, threaten a country, and say you’re going to break it, that’s an act of war. And Canadians have responded in kind.

As a permanent legal resident for over 20 years, this is really terrifying.

They started with the undocumented, then they went after visa holders and permanent residents, now it's naturalized citizens. How many times must history rhyme and repeat before we realize what's going on?
