I’m incredibly surprised @DHSgov has been lying about many of their interactions in Chicago. I thought we could take them at their word that whenever there was violence it wasn’t instigated by government agents. I thought I could always trust the government. /s

I don't generally enjoy watching football. I will always watch the Bears for a few games until I get frustrated with the team and dip for the season. I thought I'd be watching a full season of Illini football, but after last night's embarrassment we'll see how long it lasts.

Great response by the Illini! Huge TD between Altmyer and Dixon!

My daughter found out yesterday that she didn’t win the election for 3rd grade student council. She was disappointed but said she was surprised that the kids who were elected put animations in their presentations, which was against the rules. Welcome to politics, my sweet girl.

Is there anyone who actually believes this? Who talks like this? Let alone a 20-something.

I knew two of the references were from the game Helldivers but didn’t know about the Bella Ciao reference. I hate how everyone jumps to conclusions before we have any evidence. Starting to seem like the shooter was just tragically online.

The Bears looked...good...on the opening drive. They'd better not give me hope and dash those hopes like every other Chicago team.

Twitter really needs a way to show replies in a random order. I don’t want to see verified replies first and most liked replies is basically the same thing. Most recent replies is the closest you get to random, but you see even more spam replies that way.

For a team that claims to have the “best fans in baseball”, having empty seats when your team is 1.5 games of the wild card really belies that moniker. Real fans show up to support their team when that team is in a playoff race. The Cardinals shouldn’t claim the “best fans.”

I don’t see anything wrong with getting more tracking devices on people. No, nothing at all could go wrong with that. (Please note the intense sarcasm in this tweet)

I had to fact check this to make sure it was true, but it appears to be true. There is at least one white supremacist working in the White House. 88 feet is too much of a coincidence to not be deliberate.

All those claiming to support women are now attacking @Simone_Biles, arguable one of the most successful female athletes of all time. There is a way to help transgender athletes feel included, but still protect female athletes. No one appears to be looking for that middle ground.

this is like kendrick vs drake but with two drakes

There is not a prioritization list for speaking at Naperville 203 board meetings other than who gets there first. If there was prioritization, though, Shannon Adcock would be in the last group since she doesn't live in the 203 boundaries.

It's been almost 24 hours since I provided proof that Illinois is ranked the 4th best state for K-12 education. I do think Illinois needs a fact-based conservative news organization to counter the general left-wing lean of media, but Wirepoints isn't it.

This changes the narrative about Chicago quite a bit. The population decline in Chicago is almost entirely due to people having fewer children.

Placebo testing is used for treatments for diseases that don’t currently have good treatments. Testing against placebo for vaccines where there are already good treatments is unethical. You compare to the current standard, not the baseline.

I still hope our Republic is strong enough to resist the push of fascism, but things like this don't help. "Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten...And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped."

While they were loud, no one was throwing popcorn, berating employees, or bringing in live chickens. Their enthusiasm when they said a line in unison with Jack Black or singing the songs was infectious. Even though the movie was bad, it was great seeing kids have this enthusiasm.
