There's a chance the left-wing candidates (Kat, Simmons, Huynh) could get a plurality of the votes but none of them win. We can't let that happen. Kat has the best chance of beating the establishment candidate. For this and many other reasons, we should all rally behind her.

This is great.

Two world premieres, a revival of one of the best plays of the 20th Century, an English-language premiere, and the return of the playwright behind our Tony-winning production of Purpose!

Absolutely not.

Was honored to be double nominated last night at the Casting Society’s Artios Awards. As an awards junkie, the coolest part was being the Beverly Hilton Ballroom and seeing the bathroom that Christine Lahti was in when she won her 1998 Golden Globe.

They said it. We’re all thinking it.

Illinoisans know we need new leadership. We need new energy. I'm the only one on this stage who is willing to say that Chuck Schumer should no longer be the leader of the Democratic Party. And I believe that most Illinoisans and Democrats agree with me.

If Dem senators vote to extend the DHS CR again, they are instantly going to lose a tremendous amount of support from their base who have been in wait-and-see mode on this. I can only assume Dem senators considering this have completely lost touch with their voters. Don’t do it.

Now rewatching:

A couple of standouts in this year's virtual Sundance: The Friend’s House Is Here, Filipiñana, and Josephine.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

They murder a man in cold blood and wait around to watch him die. There is no hell hot enough. Abolish DHS. Impeach, convict, remove. Trials as soon as possible.

Hey @danielbiss.bsky.social, can you explain this? You are on the board of the DPOE and are a candidate running against Kat. As a resident of this district, please explain how this is not just a dirty trick like what we currently see all too often in Washington.

One Battle After Another > Marty Supreme > Bugonia > Train Dreams > Sentimental Value > The Secret Agent > Hamnet > Sinners > Frankenstein > F1

One problem Democrats face is that the job of chief electoral strategist (Schumer) is increasingly incompatible with being party leader (also Schumer). Both roles matter, but if you can't use your platform as leader to say what's right because you're too into the game, you don't belong in the job. >

Yes, voting against ICE funding is the morally right thing to do. But you can be the most heartless political consultant bastard out there - cutting ICE is still the smart play. That Schumer/Jeffries are silent right now is political malpractice (and morally reprehensible, if you care about that).

Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities This is exactly the opposite. Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.

Happy opening to Bug on Broadway! #castingby #castingdirector

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power - file impeachment articles every day in the House - withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee - be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

I live in IL-9. I’m not an out-of-state “special interest” donor. But I will be voting for Kat. Our district is lucky to have many candidates with very similar politics to Kat, but Kat has several key advantages that others don’t. 🧵

Why do we need to wait for the facts to come out? It’s been clear for a long time that ICE is a government sanctioned terrorist organization. We need a congressperson who will fight for us right away.

Post your First Film / Last Film of 2025

Wicked: For Good was not as bad as I thought it would be. I hated the first one so much that my expectations were set appropriately. It’s still not good by any means, but there are a couple solid performances.

So well deserved. One of my favorite performances of the year.

My favorite films of 2025!

Haven’t finished your Xmas shopping? May I suggest a trip to @steppenwolfthtr.bsky.social to check out a little show running until the end of January.

When people complain of the “uniparty” running our country, they are talking about shit like this. Why believe Democrats are defenders of the rule of law and anti-corruption when the Democratic leader is HAPPY with Trump pardoning a dem politician accused of corruption??

he's gotta go

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Senator Schumer is no longer effective and should be replaced. If you can’t lead the fight to stop healthcare premiums from skyrocketing for Americans, what will you fight for?

The Democratic Party has shown that they are unwilling to actually help their constituents. The only people they are willing to help are the wealthy and those they see as an avenue to gain or hold more power. They will literally kill millions of us if it allows them to maintain their status quo.

Writers could not create this comedy gold.

If you missed it in Chicago, you’ve now got the chance to see it on Broadway!

My current top 10 of the 21st century

What a night!!

Steppenwolf has birthed another Pulitzer Prize winner!

Six nominations for this amazing ensemble! Honored to have played a part in bringing this production together.

imagine being the richest man in the world and pulling so many desperate, pathetic tactics for this to go your way and yet —

It's time for change! I've appreciated and supported Jan Schakowsky, but the Boomers and Silent Generation have been in control for far too long and look where it has gotten us. Looking forward to supporting Kat as our next Illinois 9th District representative!

Sondheim would have been 95 today. He still lives on in his music, lyrics, and productions. Truly the greatest.

Very proud of this one!

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

Our 50th Anniversary Season!

Common sense is fighting for democracy and against nazis. What are you getting done?? We need new Democratic leadership now.

Hulu ruining the Oscars is really poetic coming after Sean Baker’s speech about streaming services killing the movies

Steppenwolf triumphs again with "Fool for Love," a play perfectly suited for theater's acting artistry. Critic Steven Oxman gives it 4/4 Chicago stars.

AOC shares the truth

Got a Dem Senator? They can do more than just vote. -Oppose Nominees -Reject Unanimous Consent -Vote NO on Cloture -Request Quorum Calls This is a constitutional crisis. They should act like it. Send an email to your Dem senators here: act.indivisible.org/sign/urge-de...

My grandmother gave me this Jimmy Carter statue of hers before she passed away, and we've proudly displayed it for years. Every time I see it, I'm reminded of the kindness and empathy that both Carter and my grandma embodied. The world could certainly use more of those qualities. Rest well, Jimmy.

Come see us on Broadway opening in March!
