According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois.  And yet Trump is sending troops here.

Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."

News: House Democrats had an angry caucus mtg this morning over government funding & a possible shutdown. Rank-and-file Dems want party leaders - especially Schumer - to be willing to shut down the government in order to get what they want on Obamacare & Medicaid

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

Gov. Pritzker: One thing is clear, none of what Trump is doing is making Illinois safer. Two weeks ago, a man was shot and killed by ICE in Franklin Park. Shortly after, ICE issued a statement justifying the killing. The injuries were, in the agent's own words, 'nothing major.'

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans just shut down the government to push their extreme agenda. They’d rather strip Medicaid, eliminate SNAP benefits, and close rural hospitals than keep our government open. It’s appalling.

Congressional Republicans shut down the federal government - their third time under Donald Trump’s control. Here’s what that means for you.

Illinois is the top soybean-producing state in America. Trump’s tariffs are wreaking havoc on our farmers and agricultural economy — raising fertilizer costs, shutting off markets, and driving down farm incomes. 25newsnow.com/2025/10/01/end…

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

Pritzker: "This guy is unhinged. He's insecure. He's a wannabe dictator. And there's one thing I really want to say to Donald Trump. If you come for my people, you come through me. So come and get me."

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker says he’s “not afraid” of the Trump DOJ potentially targeting him, telling ABC News' George Stephanopoulos that President Trump "does not have the power to overcome the Constitution." "As I've said before, come and get me.” abcnews.link/hmPL4EF

Congratulations to all the runners today at the Chicago Marathon! I hope you’re taking a moment after crossing the finish line and enjoying all that the best big city in the nation has to offer.

I – like Trump and RFK Jr. – do not have a medical degree. So, when questions surrounding medical treatments emerge, I listen to people who do. I get my information from doctors and public health experts – and urge you to do the same.
