Donald Trump put his face on the Department of Justice for a reason. The DOJ is supposed to defend the rule of law. Under Trump, it’s being turned into a shield for MAGA allies and a weapon against anyone who challenges him.

"7 different Obama Center subcontractors muzzled by non-disclosure agreements have sought his help in pursuing their claims over the past four months. Several say they are owed seven-figure sums, he said, but willing to settle for less to be able to stay in business. “It’s to the point that they wished they never had done (the project).”

.@GovPritzker did not "eliminate" his planned gas tax hike, of course. He delayed it until after his election. What makes this lazily fallacious tweet even more egregious is the fact that Pritzker has quietly squeezed Illinois drivers every year since 2019, and he made it so state lawmakers don't even have to cast a vote to make it happen! In addition to doubling the state gas tax from 19 to 38 cents that year, he also implemented yearly inflationary gas tax increases that occur every July automatically. There is no expiration date on these tax hikes. By 2056, the statewide gas tax could exceed $1 per gallon, which is five times higher than before Pritzker took office. Meanwhile, lawmakers get to avoid casting unpopular votes, dodging accountability from taxpayers entirely. Not to mention, federal data shows fewer Illinois roads are considered "acceptable" now than in 2015, before these massive hikes began. Who is still falling for this stuff?

Is there any data, study, or review you can share which shows ShotSpotter was effective in its stated aim during its deployment in Chicago?

This is absolutely DEVASTATING & shameful.

The most interesting thing about @Keir_Starmer is that he is the poster child for how the white guilt elite behaves. What makes him interesting is not his politics, but his psychology. It is a key feature of the white guilt elite to never take responsibility for their actions. The endless march through institutions is always the goal. Their self worth depends on their white guilt virtue. And to stop marching would expose them to the horrors of what they and their policies have created. What makes white guilt so insidious is that it turns everything into a grievance. It leaps over any horrors it may have caused with its policies and grabs hold of the resulting grievance(s). It does not care why the people of Belfast are rioting or what drove them to that point. White guilt cares only about the impact that it can exploit. Just as it only cared that the trigger finger that killed Michael Brown was white, white guilt only cares that the rioters targeting immigrants are white. It will turn this into proof that its anti-racist mission is worthy and must continue. The policies that opened the borders will not be examined. The ideologies that trained police to fear a slur more than a dying boy’s words will not be questioned. The elite officials will never face a reckoning for the tribal divisions they have created. White guilt has no conscience. How could it, when its morality is grounded in immutable characteristics? These new grievances will find their way into classroom powerpoints and corporate trainings. And the white guilt machine will march on. Starmer will never connect what he built to what it produced. That is not a failure of intelligence. It is a feature of the system. A system that finally has to answer for itself is a system that ceases to exist. That is the strength of Starmer’s white guilt racial order, and so far, it has proven stronger than any of our protests.
