Donald Trump has called the past year a win for his administration.
It’s been failure after failure from taking away SNAP benefits, shutting down child care, or making goods more expensive with tariffs.

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities
This is exactly the opposite.
Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

Walk six blocks on Clark Street to experience artist Gabi Bozeman's Monday-to-Sunday vibes. Monday, for example, is blue with a “start” button, pixilated clocks, clouds and coffee. All brightly painted boxes include a portrait of a person wearing glasses and assorted moods, depending on the day.

Five years ago today, Donald Trump launched an attack on our democracy.
And five years later, Illinois's GOP leaders remain silent. Our state deserves legislators who will defend our constitution, not stand against it.
