Governor Pritzker speaks at the Celebration of Life for Reverend Jackson.

Governor Pritzker speaks at the Celebration of Life for Reverend Jackson.

Reverend Jackson will live on.

In his family.
In the countless lives that he touched.
In the public servants, elected officials, and leaders that have walked in the path that he set.
In the kinder, more just world that his advocacy built.

May his memory be a blessing to us all.

Buttigieg: You’ve got money from the Middle East going into the Trump family crypto fund while you have Americans going to the Middle East for Donald Trump’s war.

Trump is lifting oil sanctions on Russian while they’re helping Iran target Americans.

Putin definitely has a copy of the Epstein files.

Bodycam video contradicts ICE claims in fatal shooting of U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas Video of last year's fatal shooting of Ruben Ray Martinez obtained by CBS News appears to contradict claims that Martinez was shot by an ICE agent because he "accelerated" and "intentionally ran over"...

DHS claimed "an ICE agent had fired 'defensive shots' into Martinez's vehicle after Martinez 'intentionally ran over' another agent."

But body cam video now "shows that Martinez's vehicle, a blue Ford Fusion, was stationary or going at a very low rate of speed when he was fatally shot."

Since the Dow is at 47,500 are we allowed to talk about Epstein now?

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say β€œSend me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact.

How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

It is impossible for anyone younger the 50 to understand how grotesque and unoriginal this is. It’s always the small group of advisors or tactical team.

Donald Trump needs to resign from the Presidency immediately in light of new, even more horrible allegations released from the Epstein files.

Congress must act if Trump refuses. We can no longer tolerate this behavior from anyone, in any files or not β€” but especially from the leader of our nation.

Republicans out there all but waving the mission accomplished banner look silly.

It looks like U.S. airstrikes hit an Iranian school, killing more than 150 people, including dozens of children. Our partners in the Gulf are considering pulling back investments.

πŸ“½οΈNEW: One year ago, Trump launched his war on law firms. Now, the DOJ dismissed its own appeal against the firms that fought back β€” only to reinstate it the very next morning.

Marc Elias explains why this has never happened before and what it reveals about the DOJ's lack of independence.

Summary of recent HHS departures:

-Unqualified weirdo Jim O’Neill out as CDC Director

-β€œMeasles outbreaks are the cost of doing business” Ralph Abraham out as his Dumbass Deputy

-Venomous podcaster Vinay Prasad out at FDA.

Yet human cassowary and denim enthusiast RFK Jr. remains.

I hear people on TV say "mano a mano" when they mean "man to man." It doesn't mean that. It means "hand to hand."

Trump and Hegseth know exactly what happened with the bombing of the girls school. This β€œinvestigation” is a smoke screen because they know the attention span of our media cycles, so they will drag it out until they stop getting asked about it. Which is usually 48 hours or so.

While Kristi Noem funneled $220M in taxpayer funds into self-promoting political ads, she refused to distribute $500M+ in FEMA funding for LA Fire survivors.

The Trump Administration must immediately release that relief and redirect those wasted ad dollars to recovery efforts.
