What's happening in Chicago is not normal.

The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak up.

So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans can't be allowed to make education a privilege exclusively for those who can afford it.

Today, I'm asking Illinoisans to demand they prioritize education over tax cuts for their friends at Mar-a-Lago.

Stand up, speak out, and show up.

Nearly 1 in 4 out-of-state abortion patients come to Illinois, new report finds Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade in 2022, Illinois has become a major haven for people seeking abortion care in the Midwest and the South.

While our neighbors continue to restrict reproductive care, know that Illinois is and will always be a safe haven for anyone seeking an abortion.

America was founded on the basic protection against unlawful imprisonment.

Due process is a fundamental right in our constitution.

Denying it or defending those who deny it is unamerican and illegal.

Live updates: Trump cuts short talks with Ukraine’s Zelenskyy after Oval Office blow up Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with President Donald Trump in Washington, seeking backing for Ukraine's security against any future Russian aggression.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous.

Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

Ten Things We Can All Do to Protect Democracy From Marc | The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy.

REMINDER #4

4. Don’t grade on a curve

Do not hold Republicans to a lower standard and do not hold Democrats to a higher one. When a Republican does something normal, recognize it is normal not exceptional. When a Democrat does something normal, recognize it is normal and not terrible.

Thanks for this video, Ward. Always nice to hear from the people who worked on and flew the Tomcat.
Related to Tomcat handling, I’d love to see an episode about the testing done on an F-14A fitted with thrust yawing paddles around in 1987. ;)
