I wish you all knew how seriously #Iowa takes the moniker #Hawks. My daughter graduated HS in Iowa. I was on awe when I’d go to her volleyball games. We’d play against Go-Hawks, J-Hawks, Redhawks, Little Hawks, New Hawks, Blue Hawks, E-Hawks, & Kee Hawks. Amazing. @tronlebowski.bsky.social

Can’t get over the Jack Smith hearing. Laughed so hard. Still laughing. Never have I seen such dumbness. Making up a conspiracy theory to gotcha Smith then their lies getting exposed by Klobuchar was chefs kiss. He went to see Caitlin Clark & the Hawks on the road. Lots of folks did then.

Marquee and CSN networks are next to each other on my cable package. I’m just having fun switching back and forth. Crazy they clinched it minutes apart. So fun. #whitesox #Cubs

The best advice I heard on here was @brat2381.bsky.social saying to watch your expenses months ago. Prepare for what is happening right now. I fear we are dealing with an upcoming recession. This economy is bad.

He clearly can’t to the job of a US Senator. He should’ve resigned for health reasons months ago. His staff will have to do everything for him. He should be enjoying his last yrs at a nice elderly folks facility, not schlepping around the halls of the US Capitol. Borderline abusive.

We all could have predicted how badly Hegseth would do at his job. Now, military personnel are paying the price for his ineptitude. Just infuriating. And DJT says their deployment isn’t long enough? Zero respect for the military. General Kelly was 100% right about his distain for service members.

Never have I ever seen a ratio like this. Brought to you by Threads (a woman brought her two kids to Tim Walz’s home and screamed that he was the R word. Young boy gave the house the finger.) Shameful.

Went to the White Sox game today. First in person game in 5 years. An almost 3 hour rain delay didn’t hamper our good time. They’re still in first, but need to get better and be more consistent.

Each and every death is in fact one count of premeditated first degree murder. Not only were they killed by Trump's orders without due process, the crimes they were accused of do not carry the death penalty. Trump ordered the murders, and all that assisted are complicit. bsky.app/profile/theb...

“Conservative evangelicals” talk all the time about the need to speak out on moral issues. Yet when they had a once in a lifetime chance to show that their values mattered more than their political allegiance, they resoundingly failed the test. Makes it hard to believe anything they say now.

Best wishes to the US Court of Appeals (3rd Circuit) facility staff. There’s a hearing in Philadelphia tomorrow on the slavery exhibit the administration removed. It’s being moved to the Fed Courthouse’s Ceremonial Courtroom. A lot of work goes into a move like this. @maddow.bsky.social #Maddow

We are Christians in the Roman #Catholic tradition; it was important to us to attend mass tonight. I think all Christians, whether you are a non-active Catholic or active in your own Protestant faith but support Catholicism, should find their way to Mass this weekend. Love the support. 🩷

The woman being murdered in the video Trump posted was an immigrant. Her name was Nilufar Yasmin. She was from Bangladesh. Trump is weaponizing her death against communities like hers. Outstanding reporting from @pabloreports.bsky.social for Migrant Insider. migrantinsider.com/p/her-name-w...

My favorite #Illini photos. From the time my daughter found out she got early admission to Illinois in Dec of 2008, our heart has been with this university. Can’t wait for tonight. Let’s go, Illinois. We love no other. 🧡💙
