Tonight will be Blackhawks organist Frank Pellico's last game. He's been doing it for more than 30 years, a Chicago institution. Carrie Marcotte, who has been partnering with Pellico and handling much of the organist duties since the 2018-19 season, will take over full time.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

Props to that guy still rocking a St. Louis Rams cap... #Svengoolie

No no, Cain was curator of the House of Mystery and Able the House of Secrets... #Svengoolie

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

State media watch

Sit down with your family & friends, have a serious conversation about the state of the United States right now; what Trump's actions mean for your future. Let them know this isn't about politics but ultimately the survival of you as a country, nation, and people. This is a war. #3E

I watched Hannity's interview with Musk and Donald Trump so that you didn't have to. It was, as George W. Bush might have said, some weird shit www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

JD Vance is so nauseatingly unlikeable that he’s literally dragging down the AfD’s approval rating

All of this — per @ioponomarenko.bsky.social:

They're using fear to bully you into compliance. Fear of losing your job, your savings, your Medicare/medicaid, your rights, your freedom. They're using fear to bully our allies, to break our alliances and promises. What do they have to fear? Nothing so far. That needs to change.

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

One of the greatest tricks that Donald Trump and Elon Musk ever pulled is to convince millions of people that DOGE is about government efficiency. It's about narcissistic, resentful destruction: The Death of Government Expertise. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Me and @ollihey.bsky.social

Here's a list of DOGE staff, assembled and annotated by my colleagues at BI. Whatever you do, please don't share it. www.businessinsider.com/doge-staff-l...

This is as good a summary as any of Trump's approach to government: it's awful and I don't know anything about it

Wonder if tonight will be the US version... www.smithsonianmag.com/history/true...

Purging dissent in the security services and giving loyalists power is something we *instantly* recognize in other contexts.

Lackluster Pate would be a great band name...thanks Ron... #MeTvKolchak
