Asher is looking for someone to play fetch.

US Marine veteran Brian McGuinness was dragged out of a Senate Armed Services hearing after protesting the illegal US War in the Middle East, he shouted: "America does not want to fight this war for Israel!" Pro-Trump / Pro-Israel Sen. Sheehy helps police break the marine's arm.

Got it. There's plenty of funding to send troops into harm’s way, but not to take care of their health afterwards. This is shameful.

Here's my first edit on the March 3rd Lunar Eclipse. 15 moon shots, 1 foreground. Taken over a 3 hourish period.

Kristi Noem must go now. It's long past time she steps down, and it doesn't excuse her from justice or accountability. She believes she’s above the law while taking away fathers from children with cancer and mothers being shot in the face by her agents. We demand answers.

'UNIMAGINABLE CRUELTY': Judge Gary Brown, a Trump appointeee from NY, thrashes DHS' treatment of a man who came to the US at 9 as an abuse/neglect victim, has no criminal record and became a college grad. "The laws of decency condemn such villainy." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Under my administration, Illinois has become a destination for new businesses and investment. DMG Mori’s expansion reflects the progress we’ve made in building a strong foundation for companies to grow.

My new foster Asher is making himself at home. He's the brother of my previous foster Aurora. He's 4 months old. Asher is available for adoption through Chicagoland Dog Rescue. #AdoptDontShop #Dogs

Here's a Jan. 6 rioter posing with a press pass before Pete Hegseth's press conference, just to give you a sense of the type of "journalists" who were in the Pentagon briefing room this morning.

“It’s a choice to ensure zero abortions." Since July, more than a dozen pregnant children have been moved to a single facility in the small town of San Benito, along the south Texas border. The children kept in Texas are as young as 13, and about half are pregnant because of rape.

'IT ENDS TODAY': A federal judge in NJ says the Trump admin has continued to violate court orders in immigration cases and says he's prepared to haul in DOJ and DHS officials under oath. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

AbbVie’s significant investment fortifies Illinois’ position as a biomanufacturing leader while creating hundreds of new jobs. With our workforce, infrastructure, location, and research ecosystem, this expansion underscores why we're the best place to grow and innovate.

My foster Aurora went to her new home today. There are still a lot of pups, all she's and sizes to foster or adopt at Chicagoland Dog Rescue. #Dogs #AdoptDontShop chicagolanddogrescue.org

Trump is giving tax cuts to Bezos but none to you.

President Trump can’t rewrite the Constitution with the stroke of a pen. With the Supreme Court taking up his anti-birthright citizenship executive order, add your name to show your support for protecting this fundamental right at aclu.org/birthright-citizenship-petition-

He's done this before and 83 people died. www.newsweek.com/rfk-jr-denie...

NEW: Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker sent Trump a letter and an invoice demanding the return of $8.6 billion taken from Illinois families after the Supreme Court ruled Trump’s tariffs are illegal.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

We've reported on animal welfare issues for more than half a century. And rarely have we seen animal rights advocates this angry, feeling this genuinely betrayed. theecologist.org/2026/feb/19/...

JUST IN: Judge Provinzino in Minnesota has held a Justice Department attorney in civil contempt for violations of her order requiring the return of a released ICE detainee’s ID documents. He must pay $500 a day until the documents are returned.

This is flying under the radar: Donald Trump FIRED the DOJ official in charge of suing Live Nation-Ticketmaster for monopolizing ticketing and hiking prices. Then, their stock jumped. If Trump's DOJ takes it easy on Ticketmaster, it'll be a slap in the face to every American.

Only the best and brightest.

"At no point did ICE give any kind of warning, order, or instruction — not even a verbal 'back up' — before pepper spraying me." We just submitted this sworn declaration and over 80 other stories as part of our lawsuit defending people protesting and documenting ICE abuses in Minnesota.

If we don’t want to repeat history – then for God’s sake in this moment we better be strong enough to learn from it.

CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers represented the federal government’s overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died, her family announced on Saturday.

The Illinois Accountability Commission is gathering precisely the kind of evidence that will hold ICE and the Trump Administration responsible.

A Kafkaesque saga in which the government has failed to produce critical video footage from an ICE detention facility has reached new levels of absurdity. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports. Read here: www.404media.co/government-l...

I wonder what doorbell camera she was using. Nancy Guthrie didn't have an active subscription, but the doorbell camera was still recording. apnews.com/article/sava...

This made me ugly cry 😭 I will never claim that he was perfect…every president in my lifetime has pissed me off for one reason or another. But…dammit, I’m so tired of the constant feeling of uneasiness and uncertainty 😔

A trove of evidence was released Tuesday in the shooting of Marimar Martinez by a Border Patrol agent at the height of Operation Midway Blitz, including a body-worn camera video showing just before their vehicles collided and messages sent later by the agent joking and bragging about the shooting.

Happy and proud to have great leadership in my state.

The Trump administration has denied the state of Illinois’ appeal for a disaster declaration that would have unlocked federal assistance to thousands of residents affected by heavy rains and flooding last summer, a decision that Gov. JB Pritzker denounced as politically driven.

“In an extreme case, two users sent very similar messages describing symptoms of a subarachnoid hemorrhage but were given opposite advice,” the study’s authors wrote. “One user was told to lie down in a dark room, and the other user was given the correct recommendation to seek emergency care.”

Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."

Fluent in Spanish and my brain has difficulty keeping up w/ #BadBunny. Great music is more than lyrics, it's the rhythm and vibes that make it universal. People who choose willful ignorance over experiencing new cultures are sad and not living their best life. #Superbowl youtu.be/G6FuWd4wNd8?...

Coming from a child who loves snacks, my granddaughter's homework paper warms my heart. 🥰

Bad Bunny understood the assignment…

Tuning in for the half time show to enjoy Bad Bunny, Ricky Martin and others. Cry more MAGA #Superbowl #BadBunny

Tesla driver’s devastating 911 call while stuck in fiery car revealed: ‘Help please … I am going to die’ A 20-year-old Tesla driver pleaded with a 911 operator to save his life as he was trapped in a burning car, according to a wrongful death lawsuit against Tesla filed by his mother on Wednesday.

“You can’t call a U.S. citizen with no criminal history, who is a Montessori school teacher, a domestic terrorist — which is it is such a loaded word in this country,” said Marimar Martinez’s lead attorney, Christopher Parente.

Hmm spotted heading North into #Chicago just now.

A federal judge in Indiana has ruled immigration officials are unlawfully detaining a Chicago man acquitted last month of charges he offered money for the killing of Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino.
