I'm not afraid. Come and get me, Donald.

I will stand up for the law and the Constitution. That’s what we do in the State of Illinois.

ICE is recklessly throwing tear gas into our neighborhoods and busy streets, including near children at school and CPD officers.

The Trump Administration must stop their deployment of dangerous chemical weapons into the air of peaceful American communities.

Greg Bovino, Kristi Noem, and DHS need to answer for their unchecked attacks on Chicago residents.

ICE is an out-of-control danger to our peaceful communities.

The images from the Sun-Times today speak for themselves.

Trump is stooping so low that he’s gutting the federal Office of Special Education.

Attacking students with disabilities is wrong. Every child in America deserves a fair shot at success.

Amid shutdown, Trump administration guts department overseeing special education

Multiple sources tell NPR that as part of the Trump administration's latest reduction-in-force, the U.S. Department of Education has gutted the office that handles special education.

AZ AG Mayes: If I have to, I’ll take Speaker Johnson to court. There's no legitimate reason for him to refuse to swear her in right now. And it's not fair for Mike Johnson to be holding the state of Arizona hostage because he doesn't want to release the Epstein files.

Guys, could you please give us an option to separate Reposts and actual Posts by users?
That would be such a great feature for those of us who’d wish to read what the users wrote themselves versus simple reposts.

This would be highly highly appreciated!
