I was on a plane recently and the person next to me was watching The Breadwinner. Every time I looked over, I thought he was watching a commercial - but it was just the movie: laundry detergent commercial, Toyota commercial, KFC commercial.

Abysmal answer from Jeffries. If the Dems take the house back, he cannot be speaker.

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

There's a chance the left-wing candidates (Kat, Simmons, Huynh) could get a plurality of the votes but none of them win. We can't let that happen. Kat has the best chance of beating the establishment candidate. For this and many other reasons, we should all rally behind her.

Was honored to be double nominated last night at the Casting Society’s Artios Awards. As an awards junkie, the coolest part was being the Beverly Hilton Ballroom and seeing the bathroom that Christine Lahti was in when she won her 1998 Golden Globe.

Illinoisans know we need new leadership. We need new energy. I'm the only one on this stage who is willing to say that Chuck Schumer should no longer be the leader of the Democratic Party. And I believe that most Illinoisans and Democrats agree with me.

If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

Hey @danielbiss.bsky.social, can you explain this? You are on the board of the DPOE and are a candidate running against Kat. As a resident of this district, please explain how this is not just a dirty trick like what we currently see all too often in Washington.

One problem Democrats face is that the job of chief electoral strategist (Schumer) is increasingly incompatible with being party leader (also Schumer). Both roles matter, but if you can't use your platform as leader to say what's right because you're too into the game, you don't belong in the job. >

Yes, voting against ICE funding is the morally right thing to do. But you can be the most heartless political consultant bastard out there - cutting ICE is still the smart play. That Schumer/Jeffries are silent right now is political malpractice (and morally reprehensible, if you care about that).

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities This is exactly the opposite. Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

I live in IL-9. I’m not an out-of-state “special interest” donor. But I will be voting for Kat. Our district is lucky to have many candidates with very similar politics to Kat, but Kat has several key advantages that others don’t. 🧵

Why do we need to wait for the facts to come out? It’s been clear for a long time that ICE is a government sanctioned terrorist organization. We need a congressperson who will fight for us right away.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?
