Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

This summer, more than 50 young men from Chicago Public Schools attended the MBK-Obama Leadership Academy to get ready for high school. They earned credits toward graduation, developed important life skills, and built connections. We’re proud of their hard work, and can’t wait to see what they do.

Make it make sense. Donald Trump keeps trying to restrict mail-in voting — but just voted by mail for the SECOND time this year. Clearly, the “problem” isn’t election integrity. It’s who gets to vote.

There is no world in which this is okay.     Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not recuse himself from cases involving Trump’s Treasury Department while his own son was secretly working there as a political appointee and attorney. 🧵

Whew! Hillary Clinton this morning on the US-Iran talks that fell apart: “This is hard, disciplined effort that has to go into diplomacy to reach any results. And I don’t see this administration either wanting to do it or, frankly, being capable of doing it…”

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II. She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet. Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.

“[It’s not a] brilliant attack on Western democracy. The story, it appears, is that the Russian Mafia state is cultivating profit-yielding relationships with the aspiring Mafia boss of the U.S. and his band of crooks, subverting democratic institutions in the process.” @mashagessen.bsky.social 2019:

Raskin: This is a gangster state. This is not basically a legitimate government that is sometimes doing corrupt things. This is an essentially corrupt enterprise. It's like watching The Sopranos. Every day, they get up and they try to figure out how to plunder and pillage the people

- Iran won’t close the Strait because that would be very bad for them - we knew they would close it, I expected oil prices to be worse - the strait will open itself - we don’t use it, allies should open it - OPEN THE STRAIT RIGHT NOW OR WE’LL DESTROY YOUR POWER PLANTS

Be aware of which political party wants the American people to vote and will protect our collective right to do so…and which political party wants to restrict that right so that they may remain in power indefinitely. The difference could not be clearer than at the present moment.

When the U.S. uses the military against citizens, attacks immigrants, and executes people who pose no threat, it jeopardizes our national security because it incites violence, invites retaliation, normalizes fascism, and sets precedence for others to follow suit.

The money that used to help Americans get healthcare is now being used to sponsor state terrorism. You can’t afford to see a doctor but the guy with no diploma and no skills is getting paid that money to intimidate and harm citizens.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE. This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

We can either let the abuses of Donald Trump's administration become our new normal.   Or we can pursue real justice, accountability, and transparency.   Illinois has chosen our path — those who believe in the Constitution and the promise of America should join us in doing so.

I agree with him, but I'd like to add that ICE should get the fuck out of everywhere else, too
