Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

Why are we still trying to accommodate the opposition? Better to spend time reaching out to the ~33% of eligible voters that didn’t vote.

This “country” is but a union of states held together by a document that used to be respected. An experiment that has lasted ~ 240 years. Maybe it’s time to try something different, allowing the people that want progress to move forward without being held back by those who don’t.

At what point do States start to organize parallel governance structures to function independently as it seems congress and the courts really aren’t prepared to put up a fight and citizens are too apathetic and stretched thin for effective mobilization.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

How Trump could try to stay in power after his second term ends
Though the 22nd Amendment prohibits Trump from being elected president again, it does not prohibit him from serving as president beyond Jan. 20, 2029. A scholar of politics and history explains.

In a democracy, leaders serve the people, not the other way around. We must demand action, not beg—begging and pleading is for kings and tyrants. Power belongs to the people, but it means nothing without intention and action. Speak up, organize, and fight for justice. Passivity changes nothing!

They’re using the same playbook as Roe v. Wade to attack birthright citizenship. An executive order challenges the 14th Amendment, targeting Wong Kim Ark. No amendment change needed to potentially strip citizenship from kids born here, hitting immigrant communities hardest.

They are counting on you to feel helpless, exhausted, scared, alone, too old or young. We have people worldwide who even at 90 years old went out and resisted. In Ukraine the grandmothers grabbed rifles, the children flew drones. You can hold a sign, organize, we know it’s scary but don’t give up.
