In a ranking of Star Wars films, Governor JB Pritzker listed The Rise of Skywalker as the worst one, so yes, he pretty much has my support if he runs for President.

🧊 ICE is going after sick or injured patients in Chicago hospitals!

🏥 We need a model citywide policy to protect patients, families, and staff from harassment or unlawful detention + rebuild public trust in our health institutions as safe havens FOR ALL.

Chicago is choosing justice over fear, as it has in the past
In 1850, the federal government deputized local officials to enforce slavery. In 2025, it demands cooperation in deportation. Chicago resisted nearly two centuries ago, and it still is today.

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law.

Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois.

And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

She basically invented astrophysics.
She proved the laws of chemistry, quantum mechanics, and statistical mechanics, not just gravity, applied universally.
She determined the composition of the sun and primacy of hydrogen in the universe.
She advised the PhDs of Frank Drake and Frank Kameny.
Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin ✨ figured out what stars are made of ✨ when she was just 25. 🔭🧪

Her PhD thesis basically established the Harvard astro department — at a time when Harvard didn't officially allow woman students.

I wrote this little profile to mark the 100th anniversary of her thesis:

It's a sad & harmful day for patients & health care across the U.S., & its impact will reverberate for years. This bill moves us in the wrong direction. It will make it harder to access care & make patients sicker because the lifelines of Medicaid & CHIP are severed. http://spr.ly/633284mR2n
