Here's the famous 1975 Gary Deeb column that greased the exit of Jack Brickhouse and Irv Kupcinet as long-time radio voices of the Chicago Bears.... (Chicago Tribune via Newspapers dot com)

Gary Deeb, the influential Chicago TV and radio critic once dubbed "The Terror of the Tube" by Time magazine, died May 17 at 79. I worked as Deeb's legman at the Sun-Times from 1980 to 1983.

Gary Deeb was the first newspaper columnist I ever read daily. My love of the news business was inextricably linked to my mornings reading him as a pre-teen and beyond.

Letter carriers know USPS isn’t a business—it’s a public service connecting every American, including 51.5M rural households & businesses. Funded by postage, not taxpayer dollars, it belongs to the people. We’ll #FightLikeHell to protect our universal service from privatization!

1. President Trump has fired the Librarian of Congress, Dr. Carla Hayden. The position of Librarian of Congress is so apolitical that only 14 people have held the role since 1802. Hayden, who was the first woman and Black American to serve as Librarian of Congress, has held the position since 2016

The first posy in a thimble I made, to lift my mood during the pandemic. The flowers are all real. When humans look at plants (even on a screen as here) we recover from stress 60% more quickly & the relaxation response is triggered in our brains. Zoom in if you're strung out🌿

It’s been 30 years since I arrived in America. As a 12 year old refugee, I could have never imagined I would have the opportunity to represent the community that welcomed me with open arms 🥰. I'll be forever grateful for the American people who gave me and my family a second chance at life.

I won’t vote to give tax breaks to billionaires.

Protect your peace.

They pardoned the guys that beat police officers and smeared their shit in the Capitol but they’re removing the Black member of Congress, who is elected and standing up for Americans

Fuck you, Donald Trump. Fuck you.

He usually tries to at least open with broad vague lines that are “hard” to not clap for. He’s not even trying this time around.

Rep. Al Green is a goddamn hero.

Muskrat brigade having the most "u mad?" morning ever at X, after the forever fabulous Jane Fonda "got political" (fancy that!) at the SAG Awards. Imagine being 87 years old and still able to piss off all the right people. What you can do but bow.

President Trump is firing American workers who monitor bird flu outbreaks, safeguard nuclear facilities, and now those who promote American history in Dorchester – all to help pay for tax breaks for billionaires and giant corporations.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?
