25 years ago, 2,977 people were killed on 9/11. I was 12, watching those images at school, not yet understanding how much our country had changed. Today we remember the victims, honor the heroes, and stand together without surrendering the liberties and values that define us.

I hope everyone had a great Labor Day. Our leaders should prioritize the needs of the workers who make our district & nation run. I’m proud to be the candidate in #IL16 that actually fights for working people, is from the working class, and is supported by organized labor.

Thank you to the fired-up folks of Normal Women Rising for having me at their monthly meeting! I enjoyed talking about why I stepped up to fight for a new direction for our country, the values driving our campaign, and how we can build a better future for our kids and grandkids.

Great meeting with the Jo Daviess County Farm Bureau. We need to take on consolidation, lower input costs, secure Right to Repair, and ensure farmers get a fair price. Rural communities shouldn’t pay the price for reckless trade and foreign policy made by people disconnected from the consequences.

Darin LaHood serves the powerful few. As your representative, I’ll work for you. We don’t take money from corporate PACs, AIPAC, or groups defending our broken & corrupt campaign finance system. We’re building a movement powered by ordinary people, and together we’ll flip this district.

Our country should belong to the people who make it run. For too long, our leaders have answered to the powerful instead of regular people. We’re building a coalition that can win, deliver real change, make life easier for working families, and expand opportunity for generations to come.

They are out of ideas so they distract with wars, demonize the most vulnerable, and blame everyone but themselves. It's so transparent.

Screenshot of a tweet from journalist Aaron Rupar quoting Pete Buttigieg saying that being two years into an administration and still blaming the previous one shows a lack of ideas, solutions, and unwillingness to take ownership of one's choices. Includes an MSNBC video thumbnail of Buttigieg appearing remotely on The Briefing with Jen Psaki, with a breaking news chyron reading "Average Gas Prices Jump to $4.48 Per Gallon."

ICE wrote a memo to get around warrantless entries into homes, and they knew it was so illegal they kept it secret until a whistleblower blew the scheme open.

Screenshot of an X.com post by Aaron Reichlin-Melnick (@ReichlinMelnick) claiming an ICE whistleblower revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, and that ICE hid the memo from the public. Below the post is an excerpt from a document (a numbered section titled “The Gravamen of the Disclosure”) describing a May 12, 2025 memo said to authorize agents to enter homes without a judicial warrant, consent, or an emergency.
