Given how everyone was talking about the south side state house districts a couple days ago I made a state house map and this is definitely the one I’m happiest with so far! Data is 2024 President and 2022 Governor

As a reminder, my opponent he’d “certainly welcome” Donald Trump's endorsement. Unlike Don Tracy, I promise to be a fighter who will stand up to Trump and put a stop to his authoritarian agenda.

As if there wasn’t enough of a reason to elect @patgilsenan32! To me this is proof that Waguespack does not ride the CTA often enough!!!
The Blue Line @cta stop on the north end of Damen is just missing a stair. No warning tape, no signs, just a stair propped up on the side of the staircase

.@cta has been a mess and severely neglected by Brandon Johnson. You would never see this kind of stuff before. The next mayor will have his/her work cut out for them.

BREAKING: Rita Martens, Ashley Hinson’s high school English teacher, just published a STUNNING letter detailing why she can no longer support her. Ashley Hinson turned her back on Iowans and hurt farmers when she backed Trump’s tariffs. She left her own constituents behind for clout.

A Louisiana State Senator bought land next to what would become a $50 billion Meta data center. Then, he sold it for a profit. He also signed an NDA with Meta about the whole process. He's not alone. Politicians across the country are using their insider knowledge to profit off data centers.

Israelis seem to think they have a right to be a part of American politics. They don’t. They are foreigners acting like sleazebags, and they can’t even see it.

If, as you correctly note, the problem is not just violent settlers, but the expansion of the settlement enterprise and support of the Israeli government, then the West Bank Violence Prevention Act is insufficient. You need to support @JoaquinCastrotx's Stop the Settlements Act.
Unchecked settler violence in the West Bank is unacceptable. Within the last several days, Palestinians, European diplomats, and American journalist Heidi Levine have faced horrifying attacks by settlers. Condemnations, opening of investigations, and the arrest of 10 settlers today is a start, but far more must be done to rein in settler violence. When Prime Minister Netanyahu’s government retroactively legalizes outposts, when Finance Minister Smotrich and National Security Minister Ben-Gvir openly support settlement expansion, and when settlement projects such as E1 are allowed to proceed, all these actions enable further settler violence. We must ensure perpetrators of instability in the West Bank are held accountable. Congress should pass the West Bank Violence Prevention Act, legislation I introduced with Representatives Nadler and Himes that would sanction individuals and entities destabilizing the West Bank. Those threatening peace and stability in the West Bank must face consequences to prevent further terror and unrest.

the trump admin is cutting WHAT
The Trump administration’s cuts to weather satellites will set the country back nearly a decade, experts say. The loss of data used to observe, forecast and research extreme weather could prevent the US from making major advances in weather prediction in the coming years. cnn.it/4k6eD4o
