After a short post-holiday hiatus @homefreeguys.bsky.social are back with a dynamic animated video for a cover of @thelongestjohns.bsky.social “Nantucket”. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPVr...

Premiere tomorrow of the video for Home Free's version of @thelongestjohns.bsky.social song Nantucket. Now I have two versions to love. youtu.be/MPVrPGvv-BI?...

Illinois is one of the few states in the middle of the country that protects the right to comprehensive reproductive healthcare. Supporting care here means supporting access for people who have nowhere else to turn.

The i's have been dotted, the t's all crossed, and tomorrow we start our embarkation for the Ends of the Earth! The Kickstarter goes live in about 24 hours, so please make ready to join us on this next musical adventure: www.kickstarter.com/projects/the... #TheLongestJohns #EotE #NewAlbum

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Amazing! Way to go Minneapolis!

WE ARE BAAACKKKK! Our first episode of the year we brought back our old buddy Brandon Miller to chat about the unofficial Tommy Boy sequel, Black Sheep. We had a blast! #BlackSheep #ChrisFarley #NewEpisode

Illinois is renowned worldwide as a hub of scientific research, education, and innovation. It’s in no small part thanks to the work being done here at the UIUC’s National Center for Supercomputing Applications.

Mamdani: I am in support of abolishing ICE… I'm tired of waking up every day and seeing a new image of someone being dragged out of a car, dragged out of their home, dragged out of their life.

I sense a new couch in the house...🧐

LOL!

The Nobel Committee issued a statement clarifying that “Once a Nobel Prize is announced, it cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others.”

🚨"F*cking dammit Nazis!" Trump's ICE agents randomly gassed a residential Minneapolis neighborhood filled with people after taking another young—potentially teenage—boy. Via our Jon Farina. FULL VIDEO ⬇️

From the Canada Hates Trump X page: "No dignity. No depth. Just a hollow shell of narcissistic psychopath, utterly devoid of a single redeeming quality. An existence devoted entirely to self-worship, leaving behind a legacy of division, degradation & lasting harm to America and the world."

Child care is essential to families, workers, and businesses. Instead of doing anything to make it more affordable, Donald Trump is trying to punish people he disagrees with. We won’t stand for it here, so Illinois is taking it to court.

"Murdering a mother of a 6-year-old child, you're in the wrong place in your soul. God help you! Her son's name is Emerson; Emerson does not have a mother today because one of you murdered a woman in cold blood yesterday!" -Minneapolis ICE protester scolds line of ICE agents ⬇️

This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland: "Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."

A song for Twelfth Night. If music be the food of love @homefreeguys.bsky.social youtu.be/4F1CP7eXhIk?...

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Maduro's not a good guy, agreed. But neither is Putin, and Trump rolled out the red fucking carpet for him. It's not about dope, it's about oil (which kinda IS dope). Just when you think Trump has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.

Donald Trump’s unconstitutional military action in Venezuela is putting our troops in harm's way with no long-term strategy. The American people deserve a President focused on making their lives more affordable.

Our Best Of 2025 Year In Review episode is out now. Thanks to all who have listened and supported us this last year. We’ll be taking a couple weeks off to figure out what movies we want to schedule for 2026. Hope this next year is even better than the last! #BestOf2025

We may not know what the future holds, but we are prepared for it in Illinois. We're fighting for working families, enshrining reproductive freedoms, increasing worker protections, and rebuilding our infrastructure. I will continue to and will always stand up for what's right.

Happy New Year! I don't like "Auld Lang Syne." My New Year's Eve song is "The Parting Glass." The High Kings version is my favorite, but I also love Home Free's cover: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYrp...

Illinois has accomplished big things for its people. We’ve lowered prescription drug costs, achieved the highest recorded high school graduation rate in years, signed landmark transit reform, and balanced budgets. I look forward to getting even more done in the new year.

Feels like a Wassailing sort of day @thelongestjohns.bsky.social youtu.be/SiBsoMh03SA?...

Yes, choosing just 500 was a near-impossible task. Here's 1-100, which spans from January through February:

The Governor of Illinois (my Governor) recognized Pearl Harbor Day. I may have missed it but did the so-called president of the U.S. recognize the date?

You cannot make this up because truth is stranger than fiction!
