a fun quirk about chicago is that it’s one of the only cities in the US to have both a city hall AND town hall serving two distinct municipal purposes

Another hit to Homeland Security credibility: Federal prosecutors acknowledged Wednesday they have no direct evidence that a Chicago man accused of putting a bounty on Gregory Bovino is actually in a street gang, let alone a “ranking” member as originally alleged

I will be shocked if the state doesn’t indict.

Shocking that a Republican president is creating a recession and blowing up the deficit just like every Republican president has done for the last 50 years

lololololololol

Maybe Zohran wins an election 2 weeks ago, and maybe Lander or someone would emerge if you had another month to go. Markets have Cuomo back as a 3:1 favorite for now though.

BREAKING: Judge Susan Crawford will defeat Judge Brad Schimel in Wisconsin, CNN projects. This would ensure liberal control of the state supreme court.

[Rania Khalek @RaniaKhalek]

This administration is abducting people for their speech in broad daylight.

This is not a free country, it never was. But something about the casual nature of plain clothes masked agents of the state arresting a student for her opinions is terrifying. She must be so scared.

[Lina Khan @linamkhan]

The @FTC must enforce the law without fear or favor.

The administration's illegal attempt to fire Commissioners Slaughter & Bedoya is a disturbing sign that this FTC won't.

It's a gift to corporate lawbreakers that squeeze American consumers, workers, and honest businesses.
