Colleges weigh whether to sign onto Trump plan or forgo federal benefits A new proposal from the Trump administration would give colleges funding advantages if they adopt conservative priorities.

The Trump administration offered a select group of universities the opportunity to score priority access for federal funding.

Many of those schools were largely silent, as they considered the conservative terms that could upend university life.

CTA Red Line Extension funding frozen as Trump administration withholds $2.1 billion from Chicago Two major Chicago transit projects are in jeopardy after the White House froze $2.1 billion in federal funding over an investigation into racial preferences in contracting.

At a time when federal agents are sowing chaos in Chicago, the Trump administration is holding bipartisan funding hostage.

It’s attempting to score political points but is instead hurting our economy and the hardworking people who rely on public transit to get to work or school.

It was on this day in 1994 that the CTA switched all of the names of train lines to colors. You see here both the purple and brown trains heading through downtown.

Trump Admin Tells Federal Employees To Set OOO Message Blaming Democrats For Shutdown One health department employee said the directions seemed to be "coercing" subordinates into political activity.

End of an era. Feeling bad for those in the super rural areas who were dependent on their services. Everybody don’t have broadband access.

Thanks man I appreciate that. God bless and same to you too🙏🏿. We'll both get through it somehow.

Tired and haven't eaten yet. Long long day. Really rough when your parents get sick.

Government Enters Shutdown After Congress Misses Funding Deadline Hundreds of thousands of federal workers will go home while others, including active-duty troops, will have to work without pay.

The federal government has shut down after a congressional standoff over measures aimed at protecting health insurance for millions of Americans

This headline is ridiculous. Republicans have literally every lever of power. They have proven incapable of keeping the government open. Because while they are good at winning elections, they don’t care about governance.

That’s the story.

They keep kidnapping people now they're sweeping our neighborhoods

I have family in South Shore, this is terrifying

Trump already said LIVE ON TV that he would never support a Vance run in 2028.

Imagine getting owned this hard by Hakeem Jeffries

This whole day has been.... something.

Wtf?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Just a reminder that the shaving thing is because Black men are more likely to have curly facial hair that gets trapped under the skin causing pseudofolliculitis barbae. So they get a shaving waver so their faces don't burn. He got rid of the waiver

Donald Trump is an anti-constitutional president who finds new ways every day to violate his oath to "preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States"

Here, he tells military leaders they will play a major role in fighting the "war from within" in American cities

Unconscionable

So basically he wants a force put together to shut down protests against him and his administration....

BREAKING: Trump has said: We were threatened by Russia recently, and I sent a nuclear submarine

Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"

MF WHAT?
