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.

SUCK OFF THE ROBBER BARONS EXPERIENCE

I'm dumb. I can't figure out how to end world hunger. But I do promise that I will continue to change healthcare in this country and make it more affordable, possibly setting a path towards Universal Healthcare.

Government funding expires March 14 and there's a chance they'll need Democratic votes to prevent a shutdown so that could be a good time to demand that Musk and his teens are out of government and an impartial investigation into what they've done thus far

American planes are crashing almost every day and the Secretary of Transportation is visiting the Daytona 500 and tweeting at Pete Buttigieg.

Checking in on people who flipped out at me for saying this (based on reporting of what pols were saying at the time and the timeline of events!) and calling me a conspiracy theorist for…uh, recalling that info… www.kenklippenstein.com/p/tiktok-ban...

For any Republicans out there-- don't you see what's happening? Your elected officials, drunk with power, are quietly and quickly getting filthy rich. And in exchange, they're cutting your Medicaid, cutting your education funding, cutting SNAP benefits, cutting medical research.

Republicans in Congress have made censures mean absolutely nothing. They file them to raise money. It’s a blatant pathetic grift. Also, this is funny coming from the person who wanted to fight Rep. Crockett in the middle of a committee hearing. FOH

Cowards!

THIS! ⬇️

The cost of food in the US increased significantly amid the Covid-19 pandemic and the steep inflation that followed.  CNN is tracking price trends for various household staples each month.

"Vance had a chance to defend his OWN family, and he opted to defend the Indian-hating bigot instead. Where are the balls on these Republican men? ... Elon wants his DOGE kid who hates Indians back and Vance does his bidding... Do they castrate these guys at the door of the RNC?"

GOAL: Bedard PPG. One-timer from the left circle. 3-1 Chicago.

ICE reportedly detains a middle school teacher in Florida. He's a DACA recipient. These are the "criminals" Trump is targeting.

Could it be that @kpmgus.bsky.social, as the internal control auditors of the Treasury, is the most important firewall to protect the country now ? @aoc.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @ericswalwell.bsky.social @stephruhle.bsky.social Can someone interview them ?

The President of the United States is calling for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. There are more than 2 million people in the Gaza Strip, nearly half of them are children. Absolutely vile. He must be held accountable for his genocidal remarks.

The #Dbacks have one position player roster spot open for spring competition. @alexdagaz.bsky.social breaks down what that is and who are the contenders www.si.com/mlb/diamondb...

BREAKING: TRUMP SAYS THE US "WILL TAKE OVER" THE GAZA STRIP. This is beyond the twilight zone. He's casually announcing a return to 1800s style imperialism. The US has zero authority to steal Gaza. He needs to be impeached and arrested for the sake of the world. US soldiers should resign over this.

The #Diamondbacks return a key piece to their offense www.si.com/mlb/diamondb...

BREAKING: The Diamondbacks are bringing back Randal Grichuk on a one-year deal. @jacksommers59.bsky.social reports. www.si.com/mlb/diamondb...

Absolutely brutal scroll on Fox.

The richest robber baron in the world illegally seized the treasury. WHY IS THIS NOT A BIGGER STORY! If it happened in a US enemy state we would call it a coup.

At least three teams this winter reportedly offered Alex Bregman contracts of five-plus years in length: www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/01/repo...

The same people having a temper tantrum over DEI just confirmed the least qualified Secretary of Defense in US history because Trump liked him on TV.

Kyle Kulinski and Brian Tyler Cohen are two voices who truly get messaging in our modern political era. This 39-minute chat is a to-do list for battling billionaire-funded disinformation.

Per Frank Seravalli and Elliotte Friedman, Mikko Rantanen (and Taylor Hall) are being traded to Carolina.

Absolutely wild that the Canes might acquire Mikko Rantanen and come out of the deal with MORE cap space.

The “free speech defenders,” ladies and gentlemen.

YouTube and TikTok star MrBeast is looking to buy TikTok as part of a group of investors, as a 75-day time limit ticks down for the social media company to find a non-Chinese owner or risk being permanently banned. cnn.it/40thSr8

Remember: The GOP uses dangerous smears against trans people, immigrants, and people of color to deflect attention from the near record share of the nation’s income and wealth now going to the richest Americans. Don't let them get away with it.

Not subtle!

This is the GOP’s long con on full display.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social on Mike Johnson considering conditioning disaster aid: "Never in California did we question whether or not we, as taxpayers in the largest state in the Union, should support the people of Louisiana at a time of emergency and need. We’d never condition it."
