Fan of Chicago sports, including NU football and DePaul basketball, but excluding the Cubs. Senior-citizen version of the strange little boy who used to watch gavel-to-gavel coverage of Democratic and Republican conventions.

Why the hell does Trump’s Department of War keep using RUSSIAN military images? This is by no mean the first time this has happened.

The Pentagon is restricting press access, and the NYT raises a serious First Amendment concern. The SecDef’s response? A wave emoji. It’s a childish mockery of accountability. But dodging scrutiny with memes is how authoritarians treat a free press.

I found this map showing which states used Dominion Voting Machines in the 2024 race. With an election denier as the new owner of Dominion which is now Liberty vote, I definitely would advise all states to get out of their contract with them & find a new one.

Yeah cool. Pull even more federal agents off counterterrorism, child porn, sex trafficking, drug trafficking, and fraud investigations to do absolutely nothing.
