Meet the newest Courage Candidates — Matt Conroy (IL-05), Maureen Galindo (TX-35), Michael Duffin, (VA-08), and Jamie Hill (MI-02). 💪 They’re running on a pro-democracy platform, pushing back against authoritarianism, and have pledged to support impeachment from day one.

Chicago! Have plans before the Super Bowl? Come get some steps in, and knock doors with your next US Senator and Congressman for the 5th district in Illinois! @kevryanforillinois.bsky.social www.mobilize.us/mattconroyfo...

Honored to be endorsed by @trackaipac.com . The influence of AIPAC has eroded our democracy all while funding a genocide and war crimes. Our country, and district, deserve better than a politician who refuses to stand for genocide.

ENDORSEMENT ALERT! We are proud to endorse @conroyforcongress.bsky.social in Illinois’s 5th District!

This Saturday! Come knock doors in the NW Suburbs! www.mobilize.us/mattconroyfo...

Tribune rn:

🚨🚨🚨ENDORSEMENT ALERT Recently, I’ve had the privilege of being endorsed by Northside Democracy For America (DFA) and Illinois Progressives! These are incredible organizations that advocate for progressive candidates who will work to address basic human rights such as housing, CONT.

He can't, and won't shut it down. His campaign is funded by companies that have active contracts with ICE.

If you make $100,000 per year, you'll pay roughly 13,800 in federal taxes, not counting Medicare & Social Security. Of that $13,800: ~$200 goes to food stamps ~$150 goes to housing assistance ~$400 goes to child nutrition ~$3,900 goes to the Department of Defense

Israel has killed Over 71,000 Palestinians in Gaza (even the Israel accepts that), including over 20,000 children. They've destroyed or damaged over 90% of ALL housing units, and are currently bombing refugee camps. But sure, let's keep sending Israel weapons.

I support term limits for Congress, the Senate and SCOTUS.

Amazing morning so far in Jefferson Park at their Winter Market. Spoke with a lot of voters who are very upset that Mike Quigley is running two campaigns at the same time. The #1 question - how can he represent us when he’s running a campaign for mayor? Truth is, he can’t.

It’s really cold, but that’s not stopping us. Find us in Wicker Park today, and Jefferson Park tomorrow. People are tired of the status quo, and ready for a change. Don’t forget to vote this March.

You’re on urbanist BlueSky so you already know about the “missing middle” of housing, but what about a similar phenomenon in transit? Millions of Chicagolanders live far beyond the reach of the ‘L’ where it doesn’t make sense to stop a diesel-hauled Metra train every mile. Regional rail fixes that.

Congress must block the sale of this.

A little snow can’t stop us!!

No plans this weekend? Come canvass with us! We'll be in: - Lakeview/Roscoe Village on 1/30 - Wicker Park/Bucktown on 1/31 - Jefferson Park on 2/1 Sign up here! www.mobilize.us/mattconroyfo...

Holy shit based alert

I think more candidates running for office in Chicago should tell the Tribune Editorial Board to get fucked.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

ICE executed an American citizen in broad daylight on Saturday. Not a single call from @quigley.house.gov or Democrats for hearings in the house (which is your fucking job). And Quigley still hasn’t called to Abolish ICE.

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

📌 It's time for Israelis to talk about the mass killings of Palestinians in Gaza www.haaretz.com/opinion/2026... 🧵

Abolish ICE. Prison time for Noem, Miller, Bovino, Homan, and everyone else involved. That’s the bare minimum. Do you agree @quigley.house.gov ?!?

cc: @quigley.house.gov @durbin.senate.gov

It's really too bad the United States Congress no longer exists.

Corporate oligarchs are benefiting from ICE’s Deportation Machine. @quigley.house.gov has taken donations from 10 out of the 14 companies on this page, many of them in 2025. It's no wonder why he won't call to Abolish ICE.

I’ve been calling for it. Not only that, but criminal charges against ICE officers, Trump administration, and senior ICE/DHS officials. How many more US citizens need to get executed in broad daylight before you wake up and do your same?! @quigley.house.gov

If @democrats.org had ANY leadership or political instinct, or truly were an opposition party, every member of Congress & the Senate would be on a plane today to Minneapolis to push back against ICE, DHS, and the Trump administration.

Another public execution at the hands of DHS and ICE. In broad daylight. 2 days after Democrats voted to fund this. Abolish ICE. And send every single ICE agent and administration official who is a part of this to The Hague.

It’s -9 degrees. Downtown Minneapolis is packed for the anti-ICE rally and the crowd keeps growing

By allowing seven Democrats to vote with Republicans yesterday to fund DHS and ICE, it confirms what we already know - that they are not an opposition party and their leadership is completely ineffective. We must replace Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.

And this is exactly why we need New Democrats. Ones who understand that there is no working with Republicans because they are a party who not only support what happened on January 6th, but also support what ICE is doing to Minneapolis, Chicago, and other US cities.

Oompa Loompa, doopity doo.

Career, corporate owned, centrist Democrats in Congress RN

🚨🚨🚨 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE I am calling on @quigley.house.gov to join me in my calls to Abolish ICE and to return the more than $20,000 he received in campaign donations in 2025 from companies that are actively working with ICE.

You've been in Congress since 2009. How many bills have you put forward that would provide universal childcare? Or how about universal Pre-K? School meals? That's what I thought. All talk, and not a fucking ounce of action.

Here’s what I’m running to do: Abolish ICE. End the Genocide in Gaza. Tax the shit out of the rich. Medicare for All. Universal childcare. Solve The Housing Crisis Paid family leave Raise the Minimum Wage to $20/hr What’s my opponent doing? Running for mayor.

Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.

Yesterday, I had the privilege of joining @pattivasquez.bsky.social and her guest co-host Dr. Kathy Tinus on “Driving It Home with Patti Vasquez ” to discuss our campaign, what we’re fighting to achieve, and why we need to Abolish ICE 🧊. omny.fm/shows/drivin...

McGovern: I believe ICE should be abolished. I don’t want one more penny for ICE.

Chicago needs to take an all-of-the-above approach to our debt. That should include a rapid re-expansion to peak population of 3.5 million residents.

Tomorrow. 1pm.

PSA: If Bill Kristol can say this dems should be able to say it

Hey @govpritzker.illinois.gov - this is how you fucking do it.

They are trying to steal the midterm

every single successful general strike in US history has had union backing through the local AFL-CIO this is the first time it’s been called for since the 1940s

Mike Quigley just continues to send billions of taxpayer dollars to a continue to fund war criminals and a genocide. But he’s not alone. 153 Democrats voted to do the same. VOTE THEM ALL OUT.

Earlier today, Donald Trump told Reuters “when you think about it, we don’t even need an election” I think he’s gonna do everything he can to stay in office for the rest of his life, including use of the recent events in Minneapolis to invoke the insurrection act cancel the 2026 midterms.
