Wow.
I have seen the Cubs win the World Series and IU win the Big Ten football championship, both in my lifetime.

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.
Any one of us could be on the next boat that Trump bombs on a whim.
Any one of us could be detained for hours despite being a U.S. citizen.
Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

FINAL: No. 2 Indiana defeats Wisconsin 31-7. Hoosiers close out their home slate with a win. They move to 11-0, 8-0 in Big Ten play. Officially the best start to a season in program history. Bye next week, then at Purdue on Black Friday. #iufb

As a long time Indiana football fan, it is disorienting to watch this dominant team go to 11-0. Congrats to Cig and the undefeated #Hoosiers!

In 1941, thinking about acquiescence to Hitler, FDR quoted Ben Franklin: “Those, who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” It’s a message for the billionaires & others capitulating to Trump.

Tony Fitzpatrick, a Chicago artist in many realms, has died at 66
He had recently published a new book, “The Sun at the End of the Road,” filled with his distinctive art, poetry and prose. Some consider it a memoir.
