40 years in terrestrial radio, but it’s flickering now. Pull out the cord and plug it back in again. See if that works. I got nothing else.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

I’m pretty sure they don’t even let you *run* for Congress as a Republican unless you’ve got at least one (1) restraining order from a former girlfriend half your age.

Republican Rep. Cory Mills allegedly threatened to release nude images of a 26-year-old woman and to harm her future boyfriends after she ended their relationship.

Now, a judge just ordered Mills, 45, not to come within 500 feet of the defendant & ruled that she is “a victim of dating violence.”

That $ would extend ACA tax credits for millions of Americans. That is, if PEDOTUS and the AFP (American Fascist Party) actually gave a rip about Americans.

Young Republicans in an “I Love Hitler” group chat is not at all surprising - and that’s damning in and of itself.

They are terrified of the No Kings rallies and doing everything they can to discredit them.

If you're on the fence about going, just think of how much it'll piss off these assholes.

Emmer: "We call it the 'Hate America' rally because you'll see the hate for America all over this thing when they show up. The rumor is that they can't end this shutdown because this small but very violent and vocal group is the only one that's happy about this."

Democrats need to accept that Trump will indict his political enemies. But if Democrats respond by later indicting the DOJ officials who illegally carried out Trump's indictments, that will be end of our Republic.

Still running through replay of that 8-6-2 double play last night in NLCS game 1. Where the CATCHER converts BOTH force plays. We will probably never see that again.

What did Tom Homan do with the $50K he took in a CAVA bag from undercover FBI agents?

Just keep asking this everyday. Its a big scandal they can't escape because Pam Bondi and her DOJ killed the investigation. They're cornered on this and the Epstein Files.

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.
