This bullshit pastor Eric Hansen of Destiny Church Springfield suggested there was inappropriate conduct by a biological man using a female locker room in a local YMCA, but provided no evidence & wouldn’t even speak to reporters. A bigot stoking irrational fear and hatred.

Let me guess...the Dem staffers are upset they don't have litterboxes.

Always listen to the the most rabid and gullible Republicans for your news about Dems.

🧵Let’s look at the latest campaign finance reports for McLean County & #BloNo following the April 4 elections.

One interesting thing: two active groups are apparently non-existent — or at least haven’t filed with the State Board of Elections. More on that later.

🚨 Climate Action Alert

Next week there will be a hearing in the Illinois House for bill #SB76, which will legalize the construction of new nuclear plants in Illinois.

IL residents should sign this petition if they support more nuclear! #twill

When a 17-year old steals candy from 7/11, Chicago media use their mugshots as clickbait to drive "crime wave" copaganda

But when a Chicago Police officer is a pedophile molester, they hide him behind the CPD badge stock photo

His name's David Deleon, this is his face:

Paul Vallas yearning for the old electoral maps that the Vrdolyak 29 defended, apparently because he thinks that more racially equitable maps discriminate against white ultraconservatives. Truly the pinnacle of discrimination when that happens.

If you want more nuclear plants in Illinois, let your House Rep know! ☎️ Reach out to a phone line listed here

There is a bill that will legalize the construction of new plants which is ready to go to the floor. It could use more support!

https://www.illinoispolicy.org/maps/illinois-house/

Great article about #HB1079. New commercial nuclear development in Illinois isn’t even being considered right now because of a moratorium on new construction.

We already have the most reactors of any state, let’s extend our lead 💪
