This latest cartoon from Luckovich is spot on…it is all a horror show.

As this is proving to be:

“In Cell 15, Plaintiff Abrego Garcia and 20 other Salvadorans were forced to kneel from approximately 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM, with guards striking anyone who fell from exhaustion. During this time, Plaintiff Abrego Garcia was denied bathroom access and soiled himself…”

You gotta come up with a better cover story than “America is running out of weapons.”

    Hey, take a look at this:

    NEW: In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson listed 27 grievances to prove that King George III was a tyrant. We looked at how many of those now apply to Donald Trump. Have a good Fourth of July and pass this on. http://www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

    Jeffries says he "still has a lot to say" (it's pretty clear he's going for the record for longest Magic Minute speech)

    This is my congressman. He says Trump got some of them to show up and pass it. He’s so sincere and I’m so proud he’s my congressman.

    4 dead, 14 wounded in River North mass shooting as album release party was being held at bar

    Artis Lounge in Chicago, a club known for being a safe space for Black, Brown, and queer people.

    A drive-by mass shooting killed four people and wounded 14 more late Wednesday night in River North, Chicago police said, as gunmen appeared to target a group of people on the street outside an album release party for a local drill rapper.

    The shooting took place outside a bar at around 11 p.m. Wednesday, when a large group of people were on the 300 block of West Chicago Avenue.

    Patrons were hit outside the Artis Restaurant and Lounge, according to the Cook County medical examiner’s office, where local rapper Mello Buckzz had planned the party, according to social media.

    On Thursday morning, the medical examiner’s office released the identities of two of the dead: Leon Andrew Henry, 25, and Devonte Terrell Williamson, 23.

    In a statement posted to social media, club management said they were “deeply” shaken by the shooting and offered condolences to the victims and their families. The bar, which opened April 10, bills itself as a safe space for Black, Brown and queer people to “gather, be celebrated and feel at home in River North.”

    “What happened last night disrupted it in the most painful way,” the statement read.

    Another fatal shooting occurred at the same address in November 2022, when the property housed a nightclub, records show.

    That shooting left one man dead and three other people wounded. County court records show a man was charged with illegal gun possession in connection with the shooting, but no one was ever charged with murder.
