Trump is scared shitless of a free press. He knows his abysmal record is indefensible.

Stephen Miller was exposed in a new report as the "mastermind and enforcer" behind Trump's unprecedentedly "cruel and racist" assault on children in the U.S. A damning analysis details a whole-government attack on at least 200,000 undocumented children who are denied legal immigration pathways.

One year after Operation Midway Blitz, I feel pride and gratitude for how Chicagoans and Illinoisans pushed back. For how we spoke up when it was easier to be quiet, opened doors, blew whistles, took videos, and showed up for one another. Thank you to all for your heroism.

If NFL owners want to censor who performs in stadiums, they shouldn't ask taxpayers to help build them. You can't take public subsidies for stadiums then use them as your personal editorial board. Pay for it all out of your own pocket and hold as many Kid Rock concerts as you want to.

Mike Johnson also has a "persona online"—and a persona on television. That persona is of a good Christian who never knows anything inconvenient. In reality, he is a very bad Christian who lies about the evils being perpetrated by his handler, Donald Trump, and about his own awareness of those evils.

The fact that every news outlet is like...."We'll break down how Trump's $5,000 voting payout would work" as opposed to "THE 34 TIME CONVICTED FELON, DONALD TRUMP FLOATS ILLEGAL $5,000 BRIBE TO VOTERS" is a huge part as to why we're here.
