1. It’s not a slam dunk with this SCOTUS. They stopped the J6 trials. Unsure why anyone would think they’d let this happen, or why anyone thinks Bondi or this Congress would bring the charge.

Fox is now openly celebrating Trump's unconstitutional seizure of power from Congress. There is literally nothing the guy could do that they wouldn't cheerlead. The network is completely captured by MAGA.

You may have noticed that folks who are from Chicago love this city. There's a reason for that. I walked to the lake with friends yesterday, and when I saw the waves rolling in, I felt something shift back into place inside of me. So many parts of this city are part of me. We will defend this place.
