At least a thousand but most likely more folks marching in Chicago to protest the deployment of the National Guard and continued ICE raids. Chanting "whose city our city!"

That’s the point, they know it will negatively impact the cities. It’s their form of retribution. They’ll try to make liberal cities into actual hell holes to make people miserable but also make it cheaper to grab assets and consolidate ownership of the cities.

Jimmy Kimmel deserves better than this. He’s a class act. Case in point - after my first appearance on his show back in 2018, he very thoughtfully asked whether I was receiving adequate security at that time, as Trump was repeatedly smearing journalists as “the enemy of the people,”

Jimmy Kimmel wasn't suspended because of what he said. He was suspended because the FCC threatened his employer. That's state-sanctioned censorship and it is a GIANT RED FLAG 🚩🚩🚩 that authoritarianism isn’t *coming* it’s ALREADY HERE. Today it's Jimmy. Tomorrow it's the rest of us.

Sending troops into cities when they don’t need troops is a tool Hitler used when seizing power. Also persistently telling the public they are in danger when they are not. Seizing people on the streets to cause intimidation & fear

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?

As a survivor, I can't think of a more fitting metaphor than a rapist creating loud noises with planes as a survivor tries to tell her story. I mean... just wow. Nevertheless, she persisted.

The overall takeaway from the Epstein survivors’ press conference is that they are united and are no longer going to allow rich and powerful men to victimize, silence and intimidate them. Including the ones in Congress and the perp in the Oval Office.

Donald Trump turned a booming economy into a stagnant one in record time. His war on affordability and small businesses are having real impacts — from his chaotic tariffs to his job and economy-killing immigration raids. California will continue to fight back.

After Private Bone Spurs signed an order criminalizing the constitutionally protected right to burn an American flag in protest, a 22-year combat veteran named Jay Carey did it anyway near the White House. Thank you Mr. Carey, for standing up to this fuckwad. www.newsweek.com/jay-carey-ve...

Who is Jay Carey? Veteran who burned US flag after Trump's executive order
"It is a First Amendment right to burn the American flag," the man said before his arrest.
