There are some really nice areas Southside, you need to explore around University of Chicago or the Museum of Science and Industry. But that would be considered Lake Front, I guess. Hyde Park used to be nice, checking Zillow it's still out of my league

I get it. Anything from LSD or the tracks east is the lakefront. It makes sense

I agree for the most part. I always thought the Arlington Park Race Track was a great location for a stadium. You forgot about the grief the Obama Library received from the Friends of the Lake as well. Where exactly does Southside Chicago actually start. Our time there was spent mostly in the western suburbs. My wife's job was in Streeterville. I spent a lot of time either commuting to what used to be Palwaukee Airport or the Merchandise Mart. Anything south of Grant Park was always "Southside" in my mind as a foreigner

Seeing reports that the Bears are now looking at a site in Southside Chicago for their new stadium. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10112525-bears-rumors-new-2b-stadium-to-be-built-in-chicago-south-of-soldier-field I wonder if they've talked to the Sox about going in on this dream of a sports complex.

I think I'm starting to worry more about Republicans demanding to use my kitchen than any so called undocumented workers.. https://www.waff.com/2024/03/08/madison-county-murder-suspect-now-facing-sex-abuse-charges/

Republicans and Democrats actually working together (on a few bills). I'm old enough to remember this was how government worked

According to the same folks who constantly dissed Obama for spending any time on a golf course. Biden ought to challenge him to a 6 minute walk followed by a mile bike ride and a putting contest at Camp David

And as the story goes when Jesus was tempted by Satin during his time in the wilderness he turned him away. When Trump was tempted by Putin during his trips to Moscow he kissed his ass.

Always sucks up to the guys who disdains democracy Is it me or just a coincidence Trump comes up with bond money when an anti-democracy leader visits.

It's a practiced thing. It's called the Fundy woman voice. She's been taught to speak like a good submissive wife and mother

She needs to work on her Fundy Wife voice

Biden could channel his inner Churchill and MAGA's wouldn't be impressed. Trump could sound like PeeWee Herman and they would call it a great speech

Looking forward to the rest of the album in May

Like smoking, some habits are hard to break. Just like that ugly painting that gets handed down generation to generation. Or great great grandma's cranberry salad recipie

It was pre-rebuttal but saw some speculation that Britt may have been on Trump's "short list" for VP candidates. I have a feeling that list is constantly changing, Britt was not MAGA enough for some supporters, but was liked by those who write checks. I've got a feeling she's no longer welcome in Florida

Of course he's not up for re-election until 2028 or so...

There are people that just have a particular party engrained into their DNA. For a lot it goes back to FDR and is handed down generation to generation. For whatever reason the Reagan GOP gene is extremely strong even though it has morphed into Gingrich and Trump versions.

I'm assuming this is a broadcast related position? The vetting process of this particular entity is way too long and there seems to be a lot of bureaucracy to the process. My wife went thru something similar several years ago with multiple interviews with several "department heads". After a "final interview" with the head of the foundation they called her back and wanted to do another round of interviews with the two finalists. In the end she said thanks but no thanks. There were too many red flags. The person who got the job lasted less than a year before moving on...

We’re being “governed” by children and the messes are cheering. Let them all eat cake. Take away their pensions

Just a few points on the "Are you better off" question with a few facts from JVL (Bullwerk) https://plus.thebulwark.com/p/the-definitive-answer-to-the-question?utm_source=substack&publication_id=87281&post_id=142360180&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&utm_campaign=email-share&triggerShare=true&isFreemail=false&r=45wcm&triedRedirect=true Crime??? In Trump’s 2020, America became a criminal hellscape the likes of which we have never seen. Under Joe Biden, the murder rate has fallen every year—and the drop from 2022 to 2023 is one of the largest declines in the murder rate in American history. And it’s not just murder that’s down: Violent crime is down across the board. One more thing: In 2020, 8,600 American troops were in harm’s way in Afghanistan. Today that number is zero.³

I don't think the former governor/ambassador is actively involved with this. I don't think she'll quash it either https://www.semafor.com/article/03/06/2024/pro-haley-super-pac-relaunches-as-haley-voters-for-biden?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email A super PAC that urged non-Republicans to cast primary votes for Nikki Haley is pivoting to November, urging Haley’s voters to support President Joe Biden. Starting today, Primary Pivot will become Haley Voters for Biden, and urge anyone who supported Haley in a swing state to stick with the president in November. “This is an effort from people who have actually supported Nikki Haley to try to guide as many of them as possible toward the candidate that respects democracy, even if they may disagree with him politically,” said Primary Pivot co-founder Robert Schwartz. In a statement, Primary Pivot said it would focus on Haley voters in states where they could be counted — nearly 300,000 in Michigan, and nearly 250,000 in North Carolina. The super PAC, which started by urging New Hampshire Democrats to temporarily switch their registrations, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to activate potential Haley voters in South Carolina and Super Tuesday states.
