This administration must be dismantled. End of fkng story.

Maybe we shouldn't leave the educational decisions up to illiterate morons

Donald Trump just fulfilled another Project 2025 promise. He pulled guidance that protected doctors who provide abortions to save their patients’ lives. Let me be clear that in Illinois, you remain protected and can receive reproductive health care without fear of retribution.

No warning from weather forecasters and no FEMA for cleanup...GREAT

Big things get done in Illinois. We've balanced our budgets, raised the minimum wage, enshrined the right to choose, enacted a nation-leading climate plan, and rebuilt our infrastructure. And I look forward to getting even more done for working families across our state.

Baby, we were BORN TO RUN!...

Coming from a Jersey girl….just this!!! 💙💙

Best sign from yesterday.

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are turning our government into their own slush fund. Attempting to cut Medicaid and Social Security, all while chopping up essential departments and agencies — just to make themselves and their friends even richer.

Speak Truth to Power.....

Vacation last year. Every time I see this I feel a little calmer and happier

Let me be clear, we're in a perilous moment in this country. Donald Trump is taking away our economic and civil rights — and Americans are feeling helpless and powerless. It's time to step out of your comfort zone, into the streets, and make your voice heard.

What happens when the wealthy pay their fair share in taxes like everyone else? We can invest in a stronger, fairer America — where every kid has a quality education and families aren’t bankrupted by one medical diagnosis.

The people online defending their God. 🤣

Today’s protest song discusses the confused state of the world, covering a wide variety of societal complaints, until it finally addresses the Vietnam War. If there is a single song that can describe the overall vibe of the counterculture in 1969/1970, this may very well be it. youtu.be/lSYFJB7o9ZQ

Hummingbirds will be in my area soon!

The federal government plans to eliminate services for LGBTQ youth who call 988, the national suicide and crisis hotline, according to a Health and Human Services budget draft leaked last week.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are planning to axe Direct File, which lets nearly 2 million Illinoisans file their taxes for free. They’re literally taking money out of the pockets of working families and making sure it goes to the large tax prep companies.

Here you go guys. This is for all that answered "yes". It's only just reach 60 today BUT it will be full quickly. If you are in this Starter Pack please repost for all to make new friends. All in this pack are vetted but it's still your choice who to follow. Linda💞🧑‍🦼💞 go.bsky.app/RsZauBM

Black women are still 3x more likely to die from pregnancy complications than white women. Donald Trump's current plans to slash Medicaid will only make that statistic worse. Here in Illinois, we're ensuring all mothers have the full spectrum of maternal health care available.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.
