Rick Pitino thought he could fix Mitchell Robinson’s free throw shooting "And then I watched again last night and I said, maybe I can’t"

Just so we are clear: ICE went into a day care center—a private business—without a judicial warrant, and unlawfully kidnapped a worker in front of parents and children.

There are families trying to find their loved ones; people who have been hit while peacefully protesting; detainees who have been denied food, water, clean conditions or spiritual counsel. So many who have been targeted and terrorized simply bc they are brown. No one should have to live this way.

Today, on her way to work, an Explorer with 3 guys in camo and face masks crossed 5 lanes of traffic to get behind her. She called me and said, "STAY ON THE PHONE." They followed her every turn until she parked. They parked right behind her. She didn't get out of the car and they finally moved on.

The first time was in early September. It was 5 a.m. and she was stopped a couple of miles where she lives in Melrose Park. She wouldn't roll down her window or get out of the car and when they turned their attention, she pulled away and drove to the fire station where my brother-in-law works.

For the second time since the beginning of "Operation Midway Blitz," my sister has called me terrified because of ICE targeting her. She is OK physically and was not detained, but this is taking a toll on her (and everyone who loves her.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

perverse how other democrats need to move right to address conservatives' anxieties/emulate their galvanic messaging but schumer is still too chickenshit to grab the earned-media brass ring and adopt trump's wildly successful approach of publicly and proudly being islamophobic trash

The failure of the “blue no matter who” crowd to rally behind Mamdani really just lays the reality of that position bare, doesn’t it?

Watch the "Consider Helen" episode of "Enlightened."

Still need more baseball? We found a CD in our archives containing dozens of unused voice lines from MLB Slugfest 20-03 rejected by the MLB. Here's some of our favorites.

Out on patrol. ICE very active on the far North Side including Edgewater and Lincoln Square. Multiple abductions. Vulnerable folks should get off the street if they can. Street vendors should be bought out, landscapers warned. If you’re in Chicago and you’re not ICE watch trained, pls get trained.

"At its core, reimagining I-94 as an at-grade boulevard means creatively changing this land use to make things more accessible for everyone," Mateo Frumholtz writes.

Well….yeah….

Gonna need y’all to start watching Welcome To Derry so I can talk about it with someone…my friends aren’t yet and I’m dyyyyyying….

proud that Meredith is my neighbor, proud of all of my neighbors, proud of our efforts featured here. we are trying, and uplifting these efforts is crucial to counter the terror content.

Trump is throwing 15 million Americans off health care. He's doubling premiums for 20 million Americans. Now, he's refusing to use a $5 billion emergency SNAP fund to keep 16 million kids from going hungry. But the 1% keep $1 trillion in tax breaks. Oligarchy in action.

Quite an unfortunate place to drift off into an ellipsis.

Half of the chuds applying for ICE jobs these days are unable to pass the written part of the application process, even though it’s an open book test.

I thought the CIA cypher story was a fun read but holy cow this tops that!

A black swan at Stratford-Upon-Avon named Mr. Terminator was a local favorite and "more popular" than Shakespeare, despite being a visiting species native to Australia. But then he started trying to drown the local mute swans, earning himself a one-way ticket to a home for wayward waterfowl in Devon

From @theathletic.com: Kyle Connor has had a transformative year, but his biggest impact may be off the ice as he tries to honor one of his late father's dreams by raising awareness for Parkinson's disease.

If you're from Chicago and didn't read this as The Grobber and do an EXTREMELY confused double-take...

When this happened in Chicago and we voted for Brandon johnson, it actually did work in that it made Ken Griffin leave town for Florida so critical support to New York City keep it up you're doing great

Almost like we founded the entire country on opposing this exact sentence.

As another Jewish woman in the industry, I can clear this up: It's due to her being an asshole.

It’s impossible to overstate how much “abolish ice” is the normie position now here in chicago — just countless random moms at toddler soccer on a park district field asking me where I bought my anti-ice t-shirt. average people don’t like our neighborhoods being terrorized.

@kdzwierzynski.bsky.social fire on our blocks….

I'm at the scene where ICE abducted multiple people from Lincoln and Foster this morning. A WGN producer was among the people taken, allegedly because she was among a group of bystanders who tried to intervene. ICE agents hit this car while making their getaway.

when you equate body type and morality you are reiterating fascists’ own ideas

BEST BIG CITY IN THE US 9 YEARS IN A ROW. While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth — this is the best big city in America.

Talk Of Fascism Dangerous, Warns Ministry Of Compliance

I don't recall anything in the founding documents or the writing of the founding fathers saying that protest was punishable with violence

one thing that remains unchanged between now and 100 years ago: if you have a big baby, they’re gonna put you in the news

REPUBLICANS: “Jimmy Kimmel was not a free speech issue. It was a private decision.” TRUMP: “I TOLD THEM TO CANCEL THAT SHOW! NOW I’M GONNA TAKE ALL THE FREE SPEECH ABC HAS! NO MORE SAYING WHAT YOU WANT ABOUT ME” REPUBLICANS: “It is ridiculous to imply we are the party of censorship.”

gosh, I can't imagine why so many leftists chose not to ✨ vote blue no matter who ✨ at the last election 🤔

We had the "goodwill and common sense" compromise in sports. Conservatives lied repeatedly about it. No one bothered to look into whether they were telling the truth, and now we're here. Same exact thing happened with youth gender care.

Goebbels called the actors' behavior “brazen, impertinent, arrogant and tactless" — NYT, Feb. 4, 1939 www.nytimes.com/1939/02/04/a...

I've been doing sports journalism since 2008. I've had a full-time job for just two and a half of those 17 years. Maybe if I just did a fascism I'd get a job like this. (To be clear that shit's never happening. I'll take stress over money and health insurance over being a hateful grifter.)
