Milton Friedman Quotes@MiltonFriedmanW·
Milton Friedman: “What the governmental system abounds in is expansion of the mistakes.” “There is no mechanism for eliminating governmental agencies which are no longer needed or have behaved perversely.”

Back when Chicago was great. WXRT would play songs you would not hear on any other radio station like "One More River to Cross" by Canned Heat. This is a great song. On another note, let's make Illinois great again and flip it red.

Back when Chicago was great. Highlights from a 1971 Bears victory over the Saints include a fake rollback punt run by Doug Buffone. A halfback pass resulting in a touchdown by Don Shy to George Farmer, who was my grandma's neighbor. Gale Sayers first game back from his two knee operations. Also included is quarterback Kent Nix making his first start in three years. On another note, let's make Illinois great again and flip it red.

Pete Kastanes is a Chicago legend. @RaymondALopez let’s get an honorary street named after Pete.
Chicago History ™️@Chicago_History

This Afternoon, Chicago lost a real hometown legend. Pete Kastanes of #VanishedChicagoland sadly passed away. Pete was the essence of Chicago. His ultimate goal was to share Chicago History with our City & Chicagoans around the World. Pete's Vanished Chicagoland Group on Facebook and across social media was definitely a huge influence for us, in doing what we do daily. Our thoughts and prayers are with Pete's Family and Friends. We hope to do our best to keep Pete's legacy remembered for lifetimes. Pete Kastanes was, is, and will forever be #ChicagoHistory.

Josh McBroom Naperville City Council
Last night, while driving south on Washington through downtown, my family witnessed the “teen takeover” forming near Rosebud that many of you have heard about. I know there’s a video circulating. Seeing it firsthand was unsettling. A squad car was already on site as the crowd began to grow. We’re still waiting on a full report, but I understand arrests were made related to fights, and several trespassing citations were issued. This problem isn’t unique to Naperville, but it is a real issue that impacts our businesses, residents, and overall sense of safety downtown. Our police department is working proactively to stay ahead of and deter this behavior, and I appreciate their efforts. It’s also worth noting that under the Illinois SAFE-T Act, trespassing is generally a non-detainable offense. That limits a tool officers previously had to immediately address situations like this. While this isn’t something I can change at the city level, it does affect how these incidents can be handled in real time and last night is a clear example of that.

🚨Property taxes in Cook County, Illinois have exploded 182% over the last 30 years, and school districts are the main culprit. That’s more than double inflation (less than 91%) and faster than wages grew (161%). Treasurer @themariapappas just released a bombshell study calling for real reform now. Homeowners: Repost if your tax bill has skyrocketed too. 🔁

Bing Crosby's nephew once asked him a simple question on a golf course. "What was the hardest thing you ever had to do in your entire career?" Howard expected Hollywood stories. A difficult director, maybe. Studio pressure. The grind of fame. Bing didn't hesitate for even a second. December 1944. Northern France. The war in Europe still had months of blood left to give. Bing Crosby was overseas on a USO tour - not because anyone made him go, but because he'd tried to enlist and been turned down. Too old, they told him. General George Marshall put it plainly: "We don't need you on the front lines. We need you keeping these men alive on the inside." So Bing went. At his own expense. No toupee — he called the thing a "scalp doily" and refused to wear anything fake in front of men who had nothing fake left in them. And when the brass tried to claim the front rows, he shut that down immediately. Front rows were for enlisted men. The ones who'd actually be in the dirt. That night, they set up an open-air stage in a field. Thousands of soldiers gathered in the cold. There were laughs, there were jokes, there were moments where the war felt briefly, mercifully far away. Then came the last song. White Christmas. Since 1942, that song had followed American soldiers everywhere. It played on Armed Forces Radio. Men who hadn't seen snow, or their families, or their front porches in years would hear those opening notes — and completely fall apart. Bing looked out at the audience as he began to sing. Every single one of them was crying. Thousands of men. Combat soldiers. Men who had seen things no human being should see. Weeping openly, without shame, in a cold field in France, listening to a song about home. And Bing Crosby had to finish it. He had to hold his voice steady. He had to keep going, bar by bar, note by note, while thousands of men wept in front of him. He told his nephew it was the single most difficult thing he ever did in his life. Not a film. Not a performance. Not anything Hollywood ever asked of him. Just a song. Just a field. Just the faces of men thinking about home. A few days later, those same soldiers were sent into the Ardennes Forest. December 16, 1944. The Battle of the Bulge - the largest, costliest battle American forces fought in all of World War II. A surprise German offensive that would leave tens of thousands dead before it was over. Many of the men who wept in that field never came home. After the war ended, Allied troops were surveyed: who had done the most for their morale? Bing Crosby. Ahead of Bob Hope. Ahead of President Roosevelt. Ahead of General Eisenhower. He wasn't a star to them. He was a piece of home that came to find them when they couldn't come home themselves. 🙏♥️🇺🇸
