Donald Trump's dangerously low Halloween flyover was a reckless vanity stunt.

He terrified local residents, disrupted flights and risked aviation safety to parade around his new Qatar-gifted toy—wasting taxpayer dollars, even as prices keep soaring.

I'm demanding answers.

Feliz Día de los Muertos to everyone celebrating in Illinois and beyond! During this holiday, we honor the loved ones who live on in our hearts and the traditions that keep their memories alive.

May this time be full of colorful ofrendas, beautiful marigolds and plenty of pan de muerto 🌼💀

Officially 8 months into an illegal war the President said would only take a few weeks.

22 servicemembers killed.
Hundreds more wounded.
Munitions stockpile drained.
Military bases damaged.
Diplomatic footprint eroded.
$47+ billion spent.

Republican inaction is unforgivable.

Dolores Huerta was a true force for good. She taught us all what it means to fight for the voiceless, ensuring generations of workers have better wages, safer working conditions and a fairer shot at the American Dream.
 
Her legacy will inspire us forever. ¡Sí, se puede!

Trump admitted he blocked energy funding to punish blue states he lost in 2024, including $586 million for Illinois.

Courts ruled it illegal. He's still blocking the money.

Bipartisan permitting reform won't work if Trump ignores the law. He must reinstate the grants first.

NEWS: A new report reveals Trump’s personal oil and gas holdings have nearly doubled in value, now worth as much as $81.6 million compared to as much as $46 million last year.
 
The President is profiting off Americans' suffering. And he couldn't be prouder.

At least 52 maternity wards have closed since Trump signed off on the largest Medicaid cut in history.
 
No mother should have to travel farther for lifesaving treatment because Republicans prioritized tax breaks for billionaires over healthcare.
 
They should be ashamed.
