Irene Montero: No woman has ever been freed by American bombs or illegal aggression — Not in Syria. Not in Iraq. Not in Afghanistan. It will not happen in Iran either When they want to sell their oil wars, their wars for profit, their imperial wars — they hide behind women’s rights to justify them

Watch this. 19 minutes and $12 to get meds at a public Chinese hospital. Without insurance. As we slash Medicaid to start unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the rich. 🇺🇸 We should all be so much angrier than we are. It doesn’t have to be this way. #MedicareForAllNOW

You absolutely love to see it

The Department of Education has hung a massive banner honoring a racist college dropout who built a lucrative career out of targeting professors for harassment

A perfect snapshot of @durbin.senate.gov and his four decades in Congress- Life inside his taxpayer funded DC bubble, where hubris & delusion afford him a comfortable cushion from the dumpster fire he helped enable by offering zero resistance to the GOP and doing silly meaningless things all day.

Read this in 2004. As Kansas is making the news for all the wrong reasons… I highly recommend.

“most liberal city in America”

Democrat in charge of getting the votes has intern post about the need for someone to get the votes. Durbin in a nutshell. @durbin.senate.gov @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social @indivisible.org

We’re not being governed, we’re being looted. www.politico.com/news/2026/02...

"Susan Collins wants to make it harder for Maine married women to vote" should be a pretty easy attack ad.

Turns out the woman wearing the bathrobe in this iconic photo from Minneapolis is a journalist who formerly worked at my hometown newspaper, the Evanston (IL) RoundTable.

WATCH: “Where are your priorities? Who are you helping?” 🔥 A mom of a gay son pushes back on Gino Bulso’s attack on same-sex marriage & calls out @GovBillLee — whose sister is married to a woman — for supporting the GOP slate of hate. (With @votegloriaj.bsky.social & Powell)

🚨‼️ @rajaforil.bsky.social voted to fund ICE, he voted to thank ICE, and he took money from an ICE contractor. I want to abolish ICE, and I’ll hold the line in the U.S. Senate.

“Leaders” @schumer.senate.gov & @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social over there on the right 😬

Wow... missed this when it happened... what a tragically stupid thing to say, and what a waste of this opportunity... besides, yes, today's Republicans are indeed Nazis.

MAHA: Eating a giant steak cooked in butter alongside beef tallow fries and washing it down with coffee spiked with butter Not MAHA: Clean air, clean water, health insurance, vaccines, disease monitoring, scientific research, food assistance, food safety, bike lanes

The shop’s name comes from the couple’s love of the mystery and romance genres. Its interior is divided into two sections: romance books curated by Amanda Morse and mysteries and thrillers curated by Jeff Morse. blockclubchicago.org/2026/02/13/p... via @blockclubchi.bsky.social

Bovino advanced all the way to within eyesight of Paisley Park, but his supply lines were stretched too thin and ultimately his frozen troops were encircled by Will Stancil and wine moms with whistles

This episode has been a nightmare for my city and state, but I hope people realize it’s also a profound defeat and political catastrophe for Trump and DHS, who are slinking away having accomplished nothing. Minneapolis simply wouldn’t bend to them and they lost

Two drastically different approaches to the assault on our democracy. Choose your fighter. @durbin.senate.gov @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social @indivisible.org @markjacob.bsky.social

This is it. Pam Bondi's sole job. Protect Trump, criminals, and pedophiles.

Jayapal asks Epstein survivors in hearing room to stand and raise hands if they still haven't been able to meet with Bondi's DOJ. Every single one of them doe. Jayapal then gives Bondi an opportunity to apologize. She responds by trying to attack Jayapal and Merrick Garland but doesn't apologize.

Lieu plays Bondi the infamous clip of Trump & Epstein partying together & asks her if there were underaged girls at any party the two attended "This is so ridiculous," Bondi says. "There's no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime" "I believe you just lied under oath," Lieu replies

Angus: It’s like having to negotiate with Al Capone in his syphilitic period. You want to shut down the bridge? Go ahead. Every day, 1,500 nurses from Canada go to help keep Detroit’s health care system going. I personally think those nurses should be working in Canada.

McIVER: Do you consider yourself a religious man? LYONS: Yes mam McIVER: How do you think judgment day will work for you with so much blood on your hands? LYONS: I'm not going to entertain that question McIVER: Do you think you're going to hell, Mr Lyons?

The energy, the anger and quite frankly the language we need from Democrats right now.

WATCH — @balint.house.gov on the unredacted Epstein files: “There’s a bunch of sick fucks… so many people knew…. Trump never kicked Epstein out of Mar-A-Lago. That’s a lie.” (From @dropsitenews.com )

Today the crew of weirdo printers that I call the whistle goblins passed A HALF MILLION whistles printed and shipped. I wrote about how we got there and how you can start printing whistles yourself. dansinker.com/posts/2026-0...

The man who told reporters it’s time to move on from the Epstein files won’t shut up about the 2020 election.

Federal judge: "The presumption of regularity that has previously extended to [the United States Government] that it could be taken at its word—with little doubt about its intentions and stated purposes—no longer holds." This is in a case where the Trump admin sued Oregon.

More flips than a gymnastics team

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023. The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets. https://ow.ly/jy8a50Y8kM3

University of Illinois college republicans advocate for executing protesters as “traitors” with art that takes a disturbing killing and makes it even more extreme. dailyillini.com/news-stories...

In a social media post, the Republican student group at the University of Illinois endorsed Homeland Security executing people who support immigrants. “Only traitors help invaders,” said the young Republican fascists.

Unmarked car, no lights or police insignia. Masked armed men leap out. Victim not in the act of committing any crime. This is not how a serious federal law enforcement agency acts in a free society. How is this not supposed to be a “right wing paramilitary force loyal to the regime”?

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

Durbin is disturbed, while Susan Collins is very concerned. Meanwhile, no action from the talking heads.

I sometimes wish the Democratic Party in Congress consisted of any 260 people in the Minneapolis telephone directory rather than the 260 dignitaries now representing us.

Bill Kristol bringing the 🔥

Republican enabler, 81 year old Democratic Senator Dick Durbin is willing to give ICE two more weeks to continue their campaign of terror in Minneapolis, Chicago & beyond. @indivisible.org @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social

What are you going to do, besides post about it? I feel like you’re in a better position than I am to take action here

- “We are demanding more from our representatives than just strongly worded letters…” - “Put some skin in the game or get out of the way…” Powerful story from @vimiller.bsky.social @chicago.suntimes.com chicago.suntimes.com/news/2026/01...

They lose. They lie. They lash out. And they know they're losing.

Couldn’t agree more. @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social let’s get creative and turn up the pressure on @durbin.senate.gov. He’s our weak link here in illinois. Keeps voting with the GOP.

It's a whole lot of BS hearing MAGA say that they're the patriots. I’ve had it with people who say they love America but seem to hate Americans.
