PLEASE SUPPORT INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPERS!!
The fact that the legacy media is even having these event shows how little they understand the moment we are in. That they think “snubbing” Trump for a “toast” is a meaningful gesture makes me think they are hopelessly too far gone.
Support fearlessly independent media.

is this why Trump is defunding the National Parks? So folks can loot??
Illinois’ commercial fossil trade is alive and well thanks to collectors who are motivated by money, science and the hunt — and who test the outer bounds of legality.
