looks like the #GOP really DOESN'T care about Veterans. #MAGA needs to wake up and realize trump played them. There is no shame in being brainwashed by a cult leader. The shame is in staying when you find out you are in a cult and have the ability to leave.

Every church should be doing this, and if your church isn’t, you’re at the wrong church.

People who have a constitutional duty to be frank and honest with the American people cannot sign NDAs. www.thebulwark.com/p/why-milita...

Why Commanders Don’t Sign NDAs

Existing rules and laws applying to military secrecy are sufficient—and asking officers to sign NDAs is deeply inappropriate.

“No one had the courage to speak to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us.

And a special thank you to Illinois elected officials — including many of my opponents — who have condemned this political prosecution by the Trump administration:

You've got to hand it to the Royal Family.

As soon as they heard the allegations against Andrew they jumped into action and a mere 3,957 days later stripped him of his title.

The top three things Jesus was on about were feeding the hungry, healing the sick, and welcoming the stranger. Rich men have convinced so-called Christians to starve the hungry, gut health care, and deport the stranger to enrich themselves. It’s astoundingly anti-Christ.

Nationally, SNAP supports approximately 12% of households.

Many counties across the U.S. have participation rates exceeding 20%—particularly in rural areas.

In some counties, rates surpass 30–40%.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I’m the first congressional candidate to be indicted under the second Trump administration.

But if things keep going the way they are, I won’t be the last.

That’s why I need to fight these charges with everything we’ve got. Help us do that here: katforillinois.com/legal

Feds Say Kat Abughazaleh “Impeded” ICE Agents. That Would Put Her on the Right Side of History.

If six people nonviolently protesting outside an ICE facility is a criminal conspiracy, all First Amendment-protected activity is at risk.

Feds Say Kat Abughazaleh “Impeded” ICE Agents. That Would Put Her on the Right Side of History.

Kat Abughazaleh allegedly protested in Broadview, Illinois, where ICE was “forced to drive at an extremely slow rate of speed,” feds said.
