There's a big fallacy behind the criticism of Biden's decision to withdraw from Afghanistan--which is that the alternative to withdrawal was the status quo (as McConnell and other critics maintain). That's simply wrong. 1/x

“I’ve felt a pull that goes beyond just familial obligations. I’m also a 30-something professional looking for a better life post-pandemic. I’m moving back because after a nightmare of a year, Chicago is poised for a breakout decade. And I want in.”

Finally seeing light at the end of the pandemic’s long, dark tunnel, my mind can’t help but wonder: how is this great city going to remake itself yet again?

The last year has been the most challenging one of my career. But it has also taught me so much & led to this incredibly humbling honor. I’m lucky to have the support of so many around me to guide me in this journey. #crains40under40 @CrainsChicago

In dark times we look for bright spots, like remarkable people doing remarkable things. That’s what our 40 Under 40 feature, now in its 31st year, is all about.

Absolutely fascinating thread on not just voting trends in the South, but also, the the geological reasons why they may exist
Ok here we go. Look at the electoral maps by county for the last few decades of US presidential elections. You’ll notice that the South goes almost uniformly Republican red every time. Duh. But if you look closer, there’s something else there ...

John McCain’s concession speech from the 2008 election. Listen when the crowd “boos” Obama, he says stop and settles them. America, you are unrecognisable. #ElectionResults2020

I'm just going to respectfully suggest whether it was a Federal election, a State referendum, or a local race that rather than yelling "WHAT WAS WRONG WITH YOU IDIOT VOTERS?!?" on here you start to figure out why your preferred position didn't win. And do better next go around.

A stark reminder, especially at my age, that all-nighters are fine, until you have to pay the price. I had intended to get some sleep last night, but it never came and I was glued to the news. I can't predict a lot about the future, but I can predict a nap.

My hot tip if you’re looking to support local businesses this winter. If you’re able to offer support on days other than Saturday, please try to do so. Right now, too many places don’t have space to accommodate all the Saturday business, but can’t fill tables the rest of the week
