Repost if your team is 8-0.

Here is my video of the 4 REM members playing tonight @remhq.bsky.social youtu.be/qZOgPcnTbZ8?...

RFK Jr. shrugs his shoulders at deadly Texas measles outbreak as he goes about kneecapping flu and COVID vaccines. That’s what happens when you put a raging lunatic in charge of America’s health. My column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

1/ So everyone remembers this line of demeaning horse plop from Texas Rep. Ima Dingus, right? It was yesterday. Like many other Republicans right now, he's basically pulling the racist, Reagan-era "welfare queens" nonsense and giving it another run. So I looked at SNAP data for his district.

Flying back from Florida to Chicago this morning at 6am. Nothing says “I am in a cult” like seeing a guy at the airport in a “Gulf of America” shirt 😞

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

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.

I've been able to brush off most of the erasure of trans people from government websites, but this one is REALLY getting under my skin. It's just complete revisionist history. How fucking dare they Old vs. new

Hateful. Trump has canceled Kennedy Center's national tour of Finn, my friend @chrisnee.bsky.social's musical about a shark who likes to sparkle. The “joy bomb” show about love, acceptance, & being yourself, opened to rave reviews in December & was nominated for the prestigious Helen Hayes award.

Here's the 2025 Summerfest lineup! In an easy to read format!

Elon Musk degrades federal workers as he delights in putting them out of work. It's sadistic. These Americans shouldn’t be mocked, or have the guy firing them running around making "harry balls" jokes like a rich prat. My column: www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Incredible editorial in the National Catholic Reporter. The headline doesn't capture how impeccably argued and supported the piece is, so go read it: www.ncronline.org/opinion/edit...

We need more fearless reporting like this from Brett Murphy and Anna Maria Barry-Jester at @propublica.org. #Trump & #Rubio are killing people. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

I’ll never get over that all of this was avoidable and our kids could’ve had a better future had voters just made the obviously rational choice in November. It’s water under the bridge now. But what the fuck, people.

Absolutely thrilling and tremendous match, won by Madison Keys 10-8 in the third set tiebreak after saving an Iga Swiatek match point. If she can play like that again on Saturday against Sabalenka, she absolutely can win this #AusOpen.

DEPAUL WINS A BIG EAST GAME!!

We are DePaul - 73-68 win - streak is over 🎉🎉🎉

Kingmakers.

You are brave soldiers, DePaul. Get 'em next time

#illini fans- who took this shot ? Anniversary today ….Hoping for same success Sunday! I am a #DePaul fan also . Hoping for big wins over NW and Mizz this weekend from my teams!

I do no think my cat was impressed with my air drumming during the Rush song playing on WXRT this morning. They need to play more Rush - just my 2 cents

Billy Donovan right now …. Every major professional Chicago coach/manager has been let go in the last 13 months….except for
