And of course tracing that line farther out west, we have a similarly named Cook County Forest Preserve golf course--because Native Americans golfed? No.

In fact, target corporation, the previous owners of Marshall Field & Company building from 1990 through 2004, had at one point considered making the upper floors a data center. Ultimately they couldn't satisfy the power requirements as well as the loadbearing limits of the structure.

The last gasp of the Chicago grid, where Ashland Avenue finally ends more than 25 miles south of the city in rural Beecher. The driveway on the left has the address 32649 S Ashland.

Everything else aside, VFW and other flag etiquette says that wearing American flag belt buckle is disrespectful.

Given how much the current regime breaks the law I'm surprised someone who has these in their possession just doesn't step forward and release these. We see that the law does not matter.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties. Hello? Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party. Enough of the false equivalence.

Whether it's Obama wearing a tan suit or Trump declaring "Chipocalypse Now" and pledging to unleash "the Department of WAR" on America's third largest city, leaders of both parties have shown disregard for presidential norms.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.

Trump’s about to sign an EO to “punish” flag desecration… but let’s not forget: on Jan 6, a rioter beat a Capitol police officer with an American flag. That man got a pardon. Spare us the fake patriotism.

It’s important not to let Republicans bury the Trump-Epstein scandal during the House’s Epstein recess. Reposting threads like this can help keep it front and center.
