Extremely embarrassing.

This is more than a "cap" on the National Institutes of Health. This is an attack on future research for cancer and heart disease. This is an attack on vaccine development. This is an attack on medical experts, scientists, students, and teachers. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Give me that every two years. Please.

That weirdly feels like a win?

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government. It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it. Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Come ON

I don't understand this take. Vlad Jr. has every right to seek a massive deal but the Blue Jays are allowed to have legitimate concerns over his ability to produce as a bat only first basemen. Its not hard to understand why the two sides cannot agree on terms.

Hot take - I love In-n-out and grab it when I can, but the coasts aren't ready to admit that Culver's is right up with them and Shake Shack. They're all just different burgers!

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

This is probably the most accurate take.

Is it not weird to anyone else that college players have press availability?

Claiming that Shaw is excited about not getting Bregman is irresponsible.

The Eagles will snub the White House visit. Go Birds 🦅

It's striking the extent to which there's never any justification given for any of this beyond "it's too many people" or "it's actually fake" and no apparent planning behind any of it. It's the aesthetics of "move fast and break things" without any discernible direction or purpose. It's cosplay.

While Madrid has built 130 miles of subways in the last 30 years, Chicago still hasn't broken ground on a 5.5-mile Red Line extension that it started planning in 2006. We need to build a lot more transit, and we need to do it quickly in this country.

Russ Vought set up a CFPB snitch line where you can report any work by the agency still trying to do its job as legally mandated by Congress. It would be a real shame if this was flooded with false tips and wild goose chases... x.com/CFPB_tipline

With Spring Training starting up I need to make an announcement: I am in the worst shape of my life

ROY

my favorite moments from the three who were laid off from secret base today:

Thinking deeply about Alex Bregman, Nolan Arenado, Kenley Jansen, and Justin Turner in the baseball news today I think 2017 is going to be a very exciting season!

Huge congratulations to the Marxists on the total victory tonight

For some of us, it’s always baseball season.

You really could not cook up a more effective anti-gambling PSA than the sportsbooks paying out less than 50/50 odds on the Super Bowl coin toss. A big blinking neon sign that says THE ODDS WILL NEVER BE FAIR

Shōta rolling up to camp in a Chicago IBEW hoodie is very funny. That man is throughly Chicagopilled at this point. Might as well call him Shōta Swerski.

And so it begins

An important announcement from the Governor of Illinois.
