Chicago Mayor Calls For General Strike Against Trump, Paid-Protester-Lie Debunked, New Epstein Revelations, and Mike Johnson Once Again Flails On Sunday TV

While Trump tries to distract from the fact that millions of patriots protested against him this weekend, I’m glad to have more great news for you today. Let’s jump in.

A GENERAL STRIKE

During Chicago’s colossal No Kings protest—where an estimated 250,000 people attended—Mayor Brandon Johnson defiantly called for a general strike. Johnson declared: “If my ancestors, as slaves, can lead the greatest general strike in the history of this country ... then we can do the same today.”

Demanding all Americans “stand up to this tyranny,” Johnson said: “Democracy will live on because of this generation.” He then asked: “Are you ready to take it to the courts and to the streets?” Calling for a general strike is a huge deal—but at this point every peaceful option needs to be on the table.

FACT CHECK: PEOPLE GETTING PAID

Speaking of protests, I’ve heard the same lie for decades from desperate Republicans. Every time there’s a mass protest against them, they lie and say the demonstrators are paid. It’s complete nonsense—a silly conspiracy theory grounded in no truth.
