All I see in my feed is the White House being demolished and Trump sh*tting all over huge crowds of peaceful American citizens and I have to think, what better metaphors could we have for what is going on in America today?

I honestly don't understand how some people got from "They want to take away our guns" to "They are the party of murder." Anyone?

Tyler Robinson will be out of the news by Monday. Right wing which dominates media and politics and power is already gaslighting their audience and still blaming "the left." You can't shame shameless people who are committed to an extremist authoritarian project.

Judges were the first line of defense. Now we've got governors kicking ass. Still waiting for the legislative branch (both sides of the aisle if we can get it) to discover their cojones.

Illinois' seventh balanced budget in a row advances our state's growing record of fiscal responsibility. All while continuing our investments in education, health care, public safety, and jobs for working families. From start to finish, it's for the people of Illinois.

I sure hope some investigative journalist somewhere is already at work on an in-depth article about who these ICE agents are, how they were hired, and who told them to wear those face coverings at all times.

Itâs nice how theyâve replicated the middle school dynamic of the insecure bully and his sniveling sidekick picking on someone surrounded by a circle of scared little boys who also try to talk shit so the bully doesnât come after them. Or as the right calls it, âmasculinity.â

Egg prices are surging, gas prices are up, and planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. And this is what the White House is focused on.
