Zohran won the New York election. people voted FOR him, not against the GOP. Hakeem’s delayed endorsement was telling; I believe that every person's vote counts. it's a shame that Hakeem Jeffries believes that everybody who votes for Israel agenda is more valuable than a vote for America.

“Part of the reason [Zohran Mamdani] is so powerful is because people are tired of being lectured by men with Rolexes on CNN about affordability in this country. That’s the real reason he is resonating right now.”

A lot of the people you see arguing against food assistance are actually on food assistance. They work at Walmart or a convenience store and think they are deserving, but others are not. This is projection and the way that the 1% keep poor people pitted against poor people so they don’t look up.

Look at this real investigative reporting does exist still. youtube.com/shorts/Do6hU...

Time for Dems to develop and put into practice a theory of power, like the Republicans have and do.

This is brilliant

@parkroseperma.bsky.social would love your thoughts on this piece is published. open.substack.com/pub/clnsl8cl...

If I were to sum up my advice to the Democratic party leadership about how to defeat Trumpism, it would be to set aside policy for now and focus instead on articulating a vision of what American society should look like and what role the US should play in a rapidly changing world today.

The cruelty is the point.

For 17 years I have relied on SNAP benefits. I'm on Social Security Disability, Medicare, Medicaid & live w/chronic illness & disabilities, 2x cancer survivor & Lupus. SNAP is ESSENTIAL for my nutrition. Me & 42M are experiencing a President who does NOT care if 1/8 of ALL Americans STARVE to death!

It doesn’t matter what I think. Also, none of this would ever happen. But if I had a zillion dollars: 1. Run a “we do hard things” campaign across southern and rust belt states. Invest heavily in local, state and regional social infrastructure. Sponser later hours at a library, build a skate park…

In 1932, the Soviet Union utilized food shortages as a means of coercion against the Soviet Ukrainian population. Called the Holodomor, it was a man-made famine used for political purposes, much like what Republicans in Congress are getting ready to do to fellow Americans.

Love One Another: Jesus advocates for love as the core of human interaction. In John 13:34-35, he commands his followers to love one another as he has loved them, signifying respect, care, and compassion for everyone

Care for the Stranger and the Vulnerable: Jesus emphasizes caring for strangers and those in need. In Matthew 25:35-40, he states that acts of kindness to the hungry, thirsty, strangers, naked, and imprisoned are acts of service to him, highlighting the importance of dignity & respect for all people

There's a bipartisan push by some in Colorado's congressional delegation to free a father and children seized by ICE on their way to school in Durango. ICE has not suggested the father committed any crime.

Zinke on Trump's beef policy: "I know what the president was doing. He's looking at high inflation, high costs, high beef, and no different that what he was doing with oil prices and commodities, bringing the cost down because the consumer price inflation is a really big deal."

If you're looking for somewhere to give your money over the next couple of months, your local food bank is about to be absolutely walloped. I'd either give local or steer your donations to Feeding America, which is the main nationwide food bank network. www.feedingamerica.org

If Trump resumes nuclear testing, he'd be helping China, not the US (via Bloomberg Opinion)

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50. California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections. Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever.” — G. Orwell, 1984 If you go to the website for Trump’s interagency DC Task Force—the personal Trump army designed to facilitate a *successful* January 6-style self-coup in 2029—this is its logo, I shit you not:

We have already paid our tax dollars to this government.And there is already an account with more than enough to cover, and not starve our kids. Just left a message on Ted Cruz's voicemail; everybody else should do the same: 202-224-5922. youtube.com/shorts/CQ3Pw...

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us. And a special thank you to Illinois elected officials — including many of my opponents — who have condemned this political prosecution by the Trump administration:

Just left a message on Ted Cruz's voicemail; everybody else should do the same: 202-224-5922. I'm a Texan, an American, a U.S. citizen, and definitely not MAGA. Let him know on Americans being harmed by Trump and the regime, he is to blame too. youtu.be/Bp1GN8glk1E?...

The cutting off SNAP benefits. This self-inflicted hardship could be more damaging to Republicans than any organized opposition from Democrats or independents, who largely oppose the cuts already. Isn't that ironic?

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ. We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights. Help us win this fight by chipping in at katforillinois.com/legal
