Look.. we don’t have a department of Education anymore. We don’t have a Center for Disease Control or FDA.

We’re all going to have to learn to do without these things or VOTE them all out and Start Rebuilding.

People aren’t talking about this. They need to.

Then we turn to our Central Illinois Weekly Roundup: a clear-eyed summary of the #SOTU and what it means locally, a deep dive into why data centers are eyeing Logan County and the long-term tradeoffs communities must weigh, and more!

Instead of offering cynicism, we focus on teaching character over power, civic engagement over apathy, compassion with critical thinking, body autonomy, and moral courage — because raising strong, discerning humans is how we confront darkness without becoming it.
mmunities stay strong.

If God wants your mega-church pastor to have a private jet, why doesn't he just reach down and give him one for free. Why do you have to give your hard-earned money to the pastor so he can buy one? Does God want you to be poor?

Thank you to Greenland for providing emergency medical care to a US sailor on board the submarine, since we did not have adequate resources in the area to treat him. I’m sorry that our president felt the need to cover up our shortcomings with a deranged ghost hospital ship post.

🔥 @jamestalarico.bsky.social to @laurenboebert: “Y'all warned us about government overreach. You warned us government would cancel free speech. You warned us about government usurping the role of the church… All that is now happening and your party is enabling it.”

In Summerville SC, a business owner was arrested for…. Being on a group chat with kids planning a school walkout to protest ICE.

There is a first amendment in this country still. Let’s not even mention the grown adults Nazi chat that Vance defended
