If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.
Now that summer is over, Chicago is still on track to have fewer homicides in 2025 than almost any other year since 2001. This is especially impressive considering that the five most violent years of the 21st century have all been in the past decade.

it has been a while since i've done this (like, probably 4-5 years) but i am going to do spot reactions on every single free agency deal in the NBA this season. for those who do not know me, i used to be a blogger and now i am just a crusty old hoopshead that hasn't written in a decade.

Worth a watch:

Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

one of those posts where the original poster never replies or admits they’re wrong, just disappears for a while to write the “bluesky is full of mean people” article for, like, business insider
I guess I’m on team “not Cuomo” but if the choice to lead America’s single greatest city is down to “inexperienced socialist” and “corrupt sex-pest” maybe we need to have a hard conversation about the Democratic Party’s bench problem.

it's great that everyone is happy but yes sorry a big part of what I want right now is to see bad takes from horrible cuomo supporters and i do have to go to twitter for that

If people really find this to be such an easy conclusion, then Congressional authority should be easy to get.

So why don’t they insist on a vote?

They know this isn’t “progressive” resistance. They want to marginalize it as such because on top of this war being ILLEGAL, it’s also deeply unpopular.
CNN’s Van Jones urges “progressives” to “get on board” with bombing Iran:

“I think progressives underestimate how dangerous Iran is. Iran is not a normal country,” he said on air.

Jones did not share whether he considers Israel—an apartheid state currently committing genocide—a “normal country.”

Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.

gregg popovich is the best NBA coach of all-time. his ability to adapt to his talent, teach up his guys, earnestly give a damn about every guy, and achieve buy-in from the whole squad is absolutely unparalleled. rock solid coach and an even better man. love you, pop.
