Things feel uncertain right now, Illinois. I want you all to know weâre doing everything we can to protect your rights. Make sure you know how to stand up for yourself and others at illinoisimmigrationinfo.org.
Growing up, the rule according to my non-religious Brooklyn father was, âSandy Koufax refused to pitch game 1 of the World Series because it was Yom Kippur. There could be nothing more important in this world than that.The answer is youâre not goingâ đ
Started a new job and it was the qtrly offsite (not really missable) Like, itâs right there in Outlook people, all the major holidays just magically show up when you click the box! Donât worry, you donât even have to learn about other peopleâs traditions, please just click the magic box đ«

A few months ago someone on social media offered the best question to ask yourself when doing a purge: if it had poop on it, would you clean it or get rid of it? đ€Ł It made my spring cleaning purge so easy đ€
Real historical take: Itâs seemingly impossible for a white man to say, âThanks for helping me see this other perspective in response to my statement. I will think about it.â
When it happens, is there an over/under on how many days they try to Weekend at Bernieâs him?
A front office that would invite Charlie Kirk on the field deserves nothing more. It breaks my heart, but itâs true.

Everything is a potential trap to those that hold no authentic views other than âhold onto powerâ - appreciate everyday how lucky I am to have this administration in IL - thank you!
Even more tax breaks and still cutting to eke out more profit. Gee, this was so unpredictable đ€Ș
Weâre 8 months into this administration, how are the Dems still so incredibly clueless on what is necessary? The word is accountability. Without that, nothing.

Agree and I thank god everyday Pritzker is my governor, but I do appreciate the value it has in an fâd up media environment of clicks and disinformation. Example: tonightâs network Chicago news didnât even back the gov when they aired it, they reinforced the crime lies đ€Ą
Not everything is a zero sum game. Multiple strategies win the day
I flipped on the 5:00 @nbcchicago.com news to see how âcourageousâ they would beâŠtheir take was to feature an alderman who reinforced the crime lie. Both violent crime and property crime in Chicago are at 25 yr lows. What an embarrassment to the profession! Thank god for Pritzker.

When I saw the Charl*e K*rk pic on-field w/ Shaw & Busch it broke something in me. For 1st time in yrs of deep Cubs fandom, Iâm struggling to support them. In 2019, they banned a fan for flashing a white power symbol. In 2025, they welcome white supremacy onto the field as a VIP?! Open to adviceâŠ
Itâs almost as if thereâs a social media site full of engaged Dems giving free opinions every day on what they want to see.
No one can tell me Hakeem Jeffries deserves to stay in Dem leadership when all this about House seats and the man is nowhere. He should be on every Sunday show with others assigned to every weekday show speaking one strong and consistent message. Heâs too busy not supporting Mamdami
Learning the team is MAGA on the corners was a gut punch today - ready to accept the implosion now
Wouldnât it be great if you had Hakeem Jeffries on every Sunday show this past weekend and assigned reps every other day saying this exact thing over and over and over without compromise?
Did we miss him using his national profile as an aggressive and creative fighter?
Supporting Jeffries as a future party leader is irreconcilable with any of the really smart takes I usually read from you. Honestly feel sad about it
Walking as my main mode of transportation
85% of young men support Zohran Mamdani. 79% of young women support Zohran Mamdani. 67% of Jewish people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani. 65% of Black people aged 18-44 support Zohran Mamdani. Would you have guessed *any* of that with how the media has covered all this?
I truly hope this means actors, writers, directors, etc boycott working with CBS/Paramount. If they donât, itâs just thoughts and prayers
With rare exception, information was only available during business hours
Now is an important time to learn more about concentration camps. Would you like to join a book club reading One Long Night by @andreapitzer.bsky.social? Iâll be facilitating. We will make a schedule and you can just come when you can make it. Reply & Reskeet if interested.
Yes!
It also leaves the needs/behaviors of the âconsumersâ of news completely out of the equation. The likelihood that most people would pay/subscribe to an equivalent number of independent newsletters as there are journalists in a full staffed newsroom is zero
Yes! The zero-sum messaging of âworking peopleâ vs. the well-off obscures the broad harm! Everyone needs local hospitals when seconds matter, a family in a luxury car can die due to crumbling infrastructure just as easily as a family in a used car. When people lose healthcare, crime skyrockets, etc.
And violent crime is at an all time low!
And if youâre âwell offâ this bill is bad for you too - bc everyone needs local hospitals/growing number of practitioners when seconds matter, a family in a luxury car can die due to crumbling infrastructure just as easily as a family in a used car. When people lose healthcare, crime increases, etc.
And they need to stop saying it doesnât affect the âwell offâ bc it actually does and they never connect those dots! Everyone needs local hospitals when seconds matter, a family in a luxury car can die due to crumbling infrastructure just as easily as a family in a used car. Crime will go up, etc
And to look good in public bathroom lighting is crushing it at any age!
Journalists should start asking these politicians why they are following the Heritage Foundation Project Esther playbook
Hmmm, shouldnât every church that sees the Vatican as their guide have an obligation to speak out since I thought this was still the Churchâs official position issued in 1965:
I wish they and the Nexus project had a more robust social strategy because this resource is fantastic! Iâve been trying to share it everywhere the conversation is relevant âđ»
Suggested action: every time you get a fundraising request from a Dem running for the House, call their campaign office and say, âno money without advocating for Jeffries to be removed from leadership.â Let them hear it
The playbook was outlined in 2024 and everyone is acting like itâs organically happening
Itâs an actual strategy cooked up by the Heritage Foundation (Project Esther) and everyone is ignoring that very real playbook
Theyâre plying right into the Heritage Foundationâs Project Esther. Hook, line, and sinker
That requires self-awareness and they have none
They both make me incandescently angry and depressed đ€
As a Jewish Mamdami supporter, what scares me most is the lack of concern among Jews to replicating the tragic dynamics of Nazi Jewish Councils. Aligning with white supremacists to achieve their goals, categorizing a large portion of Jews as self-hating - where do they think this leads??
As a Jewish Mamdami supporter, also interesting that the Jewish community is unconcerned about replicating the tragic dynamics of Nazi Jewish Councils. Aligning with white supremacists to achieve their goals, categorizing a large portion of Jews as self-hating - where do they think this leads??

If Dem consultants actually consulted theyâd mine the comments on all these consistently ratioâd posts for the rich consumer (voter) insights that are there - instead they just listen to themselves and miss the point every time
Read my latest:
The PR firm handling this should never work again. This statement only makes the organization look worse. All it says to me (especially given the info it doesnât cover) is that 50501 doesnât even understand the issues theyâre supposedly organized to fight
This is the funniest thing Iâve read all day. Thank you!
Couldnât waste the back of my sign yesterday and had a special message for the media :)
With all due respect, celebrating bipartisan words, without bipartisan action is treating âthoughts and prayersâ like itâs real concern.
Couldnât let the back of my sign go to waste. Special message for the media :)
You were one of 6 Dem Senators who voted for nomination. She wouldnât be in this position without you. Lead the charge for her removal (b/c saying theyâre liberators of CA from a socialist government is pretty insane, as well) or be tainted by this forever

Weâre in the horror version of âBigâ - so many people with the emotional maturity of 13 yr olds walking around in adult bodies.
OR/AND, they grew their brand to its massive success using inclusion as a valuable differentiator for consumers. Then, a few years ago started to pull back on their Pride month offerings/store displays/promotions because of âcomplaints.â The immediate capitulation on DEI was final straw for many.

Canât see why an athlete would take the risk or expose their family to such risks.
Yep, coming from the same ding dongs who didnât âgetâ the opening ceremonies in Paris last summer.
My aunt was on that version of Wheel of Fortune in the 80s. When she recently mentioned it, I made a joke about âdo you still have a ceramic dalmatian?â and not one person understood the reference. I feel so seen!
And what are you asking the House to do?
Funny enough, you gave up on the fight last week. Resign today.
And somehow people still think the US will host FIFA and the Olympics in the next 3 yrs - why would athletes take such risks or expose their families to them?

Weâre only âquarrelingâbecause the party is NOT fighting. This just reinforces an inability to read the room
