Massive service disruptions at O’Hare due to Trump golf event in the suburbs today. Jeers and boos on my flight in from ABQ (delayed 3.5 hours) when the pilot explained the cause. Is there still room for Chicago to hate him even more?

The first voice I heard this morning was a five-year-old child arguing with a crossing guard that it should have been a penalty.

It’s finally happened. After 18 months. Finally, a media merger you can root for.

A clear entertainment gap between the two CL matches on broadcast today. Quite different experiences within the pub. Yet, we progress.

Jaime Andrade, who ran flagrantly untrue ads accusing his opponent Miguel Alvelo-Rivera of supporting ICE, is down big in his reelection bid. Andrade is one of the last vestiges of the Mell political machine

Looney Toons volume of mail from sleazy 40th District state rep Jaime Andrade. This was today’s alone. As a survivor of the Natalie Toro campaign, I am hoping they reach the same fate—quick. No one needs this much Andrade!
