Republicans have the House, Senate, and White House. When the government shuts down they will own it completely. They refuse to negotiate, and they're terrified to pass anything because their policies are a disaster. https://politi.co/4gIp0YD

politi.coSchumer and Thune are in a shutdown stalemateAny chance of avoiding a shutdown next week would probably be helped if the Senate’s top two party leaders talked to each other.

Here in Illinois, we are proud to continue expanding access to health care in our state. Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans in Washington are cutting funding for services — and now even threatening to shut down the federal government over it.

The @washingtonpost.com story on Tylenol & autism leaves out a MAJOR 2.5M sibling-controlled study of children in Denmark, which "found no evidence that acetaminophen use during pregnancy was associated with children’s risk of autism, ADHD or intellectual disability." jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Starting November 1st, New Mexico will become the first state to offer free universal childcare to all its residents. It's expected to save families over $12,000 per child annually. This is a huge step forward — and a reminder that we have the power to fix the system.

Once the government devalues one group of people, how soon before it devalues another?

The Editorial Board@editorialboard.bsky.social

I'm serious. If SCOTUS can say "it's legal to detain people if they're brown," it can also say, "it's legal to detain people because they say things the president doesn't like." If your identity is a potential crime, your speech can be, too.

If we can't think for ourselves, if we're unwilling to question authority, then we're just putty in the hands of those in power. But if the citizens are educated and form their own opinions, then those in power work for us. - Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World

This isn’t Moscow or Beijing. It’s Chicago. Masked federal agents grabbed U.S. citizens protesting ICE and threw them into an unmarked van. “Who are you? Where are you taking them?” people shouted. “You are kidnapping them!” What has America become?

This isn’t strength—it’s desperation. This isn’t leadership—it’s chaos by design. The pattern is clear: Disinformation is the weapon. Distraction is the strategy. Division is the goal.

And while Trump rants in the night, his allies are quietly moving to silence the free press, erase voting rights, and redraw democracy itself. ⛔ Don’t be fooled. Don’t be distracted.

He called on Republican states to redraw maps mid-cycle and ban mail-in voting—an open blueprint to RIG elections. ⚠️ He bragged about a fake “59% approval rating” that doesn’t exist—when the truth is, he’s underwater in every credible poll. ⚠️

He went unhinged at MSNBC’s rebrand, blasting all-caps rage at journalists. He lashed out at Gavin Newsom—who’s been mocking him with Trump’s own style. Newsom’s office replied with snowflake emojis, leaving Trump humiliated.

Trump is attempting to appoint his own judges bypassing both the Senates and court by appointing interim judges. These judges have been serving for 120 days and then get voted out by real judges. He then has the DOJ appoint them for longer. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory apple.news/AOcfigPWWSBq...
