News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement. Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

This article manages to name her husband before it names… her.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

First, Republicans passed the largest health care cut in American history to fund the largest tax break for the rich in history. Now, many families are getting letters telling them they'll pay an average of $1,000 a month more on their health insurance premiums.

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Every #ShutDown is a chance to gut NPS staffing and privatize public lands. Lay-offs are still in the works. Call Congress and demand they not go through a Reduction in Force on the Dept of Interior or Park Service! We're partnering with @5calls.org to #RehireRangers: 5calls.org/issue/public...

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are prepared to roll over to avoid a shutdown. That cannot happen, because it is exactly what Trump wants. Now is the time to fight. Call their offices and tell them. @schumer.senate.gov : (202) 224-6542 @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social : (202)-225-5936

The Trump Administration's DHS officers appear to be carrying large weapons around downtown Chicago in camouflage and masks. This is not making anybody safer — it’s a show of intimidation, instilling fear in our communities and hurting our businesses.

WOW. The lead plaintiff is a Latino man who's been here legally for 24 years. He was grabbed off the street by plainclothes federal agents who didn't even ASK about his status. He was detained overnight and only released once a supervisor realized he had been illegally arrested.

This is a horrifying travesty. Mario is a journalist who was covering No Kings protests; his detention is an outrage and we are hearing reports that he may be deported imminently. Raise your voices here: action.aclu.org/send-message...

Nexstar made a deal to acquire broadcast conglomerate Tegna in a $6.2 billion deal, which will require government approval. They’re continuing to refuse to air Kimmel.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

UPDATE: Sinclair is NOT going to broadcast Jimmy Kimmel, even though ABC is resuming production. Sinclair has demanded that Kimmel personally donate to Turning Point USA, a right-wing political organization. David Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair, donated 250K to Turning Point USA last year.

🚨BREAKING: The Supreme Court Monday upheld President Donald Trump’s dismissal without cause of the last Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) despite nearly a century of court precedent protecting the official. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Just signed on. Everybody should. Let’s show the world how united we are.

It is not about an effing meeting!! You sound like whiny fools. Stop

The right is awfully quiet about Tyler Robinson. Come on, guys! What happened to “It’s time for war”? Kind of a rough call when he’s one of your own, isn’t it?

Read every word of this. Millions of Californians can now be profiled by the color of their skin and the language they speak, thanks to the Supreme Court. This is not the slippery slope. We are already on the slide towards dictatorship.

Meiselas: After Charleston, Obama didn’t blame Republicans. But MAGA leaders, starting with Trump, say Democrats must be eradicated for Kirk’s death—without knowing who did it?! That’s maliciously provoking more violence.

The Show Me State is showing up for our democracy.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Which work? Calling for gay people to be stoned to death? Blaming airplane crashes on black pilots? Anti-vax bullshit? Election denialism? Pushing Great Replacement Theory? Kirk’s murder is awful and ominous for this country. But no, we don’t need to honor him or “continue his work.”

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys. Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman. There is no justification for this. None.

If the GOP passes this law, Missouri will be sued.

this is extremely real and I don't think people totally grasp the scope of it yet. June's No Kings had literally 3x as many protests around the country as the single biggest day of protest in Trump 1.0, and penetration into rural and red areas that we never reached back then

We have noticed a recent uptick in false social media posts regarding Chicago, including misleading videos, old videos reposted as new, and unfounded rumors. Everything feels urgent, but we ask people to take an extra minute to double check information and avoid sowing confusion. We Keep Us Safe

Holy shit! During the national anthem at the US Open men's final, the moment Trump is shown on the jumbotron the entire stadium erupted in boos. To say the pedophile president is loathed in his own hometown would be an understatement. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇

🧵 An open letter to the US Open and USTA: Trump will attend the #USOpen as a guest of ROLEX. Yesterday, Trump declared 'WAR' on Chicago. The USTA has called for media censorship of dissent against Trump today. I played NCAA tennis many years ago and still play. Today I resign my #USTA membership.

Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."

"The group is working to legalize machine guns... 'We fully believe that law-abiding citizens should be able to own fully automatic firearms'...” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Alright, so I've been afraid to say this out loud, but I think after today, I can say it: In the first Battle of Los Angeles, the good people of LA County have prevailed. We beat ICE back. 1/

When even Rand Paul thinks you’re despicable.

Cleta Mitchell -- the Trump whisperer on all things elections -- thinks President Donald Trump may declare a national emergency to allow him to take control of national elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

We only need to flip two more Republicans to force a House vote on releasing the Epstein files. Help us put these billboards up in more GOP districts across the country and keep the pressure on Republicans to stop Trump’s cover-up and release ALL the Epstein files: secure.actblue.com/donate/epste...

Washington DC - the bells of this church are ringing in support of the protest! 😁

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law. May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.

The Department of Defense website now redirects to war.gov. Hegseth just stated the so-called Department of War will plan for “maximum lethality, not tepid legality”. No American wants this. It is the sick and twisted agenda of this totalitarian regime, backed by billionaires, Russia, and Israel.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

In a decade, Elon Musk's share of Tesla could be worth $2 trillion... Or it could be worthless. He'll be focused on the first option. We'll be working to make the second reality. #teslatakedown #MuskMustFall www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

CHICAGO!!! We’re out protesting at the Broadview Detention Center (1930 Beach St) where ICE is detaining and deporting our neighbors. We’ve scared them off once today. Come by and help us do it again.

“Jeffries and Schumer, get your shit together. Tell us what your demands are.” Another government funding deadline is coming up and @ezralevin.bsky.social has déjà vu about Democrats caving to Trump. Tell Democrats to reject any GOP budget that fuels Trump’s chaos: indivisible.org/campaign/car...

Rand Paul: "The reason we have trials & we don't automatically assume guilt is what if we make a mistake and they happen to be people fleeing the Venezuelan dictator? ... off our coast it isn't our policy just to blow people up ... even the worst people in our country, they still get a trial."
