The new pope, formerly Robert Prevost and now Pope Leo XIV, is the youngest of three boys raised by a school superintendent father and school librarian mother in south suburban Dolton shawlocal.com/the-herald-new…

The first American Pope, and he's from Chicago! What an incredible story.

God Bless Pope Leo XIV!

@MaryAnnAhernNBC @nbcchicago What an incredible experience! Safe travels, and let us know when the white smoke rises! 🙏

There may be some Illinois politicians relieved for the next week… On way to #Conclave @nbcchicago

Following today’s announcement from Sen. Durbin, I’m preparing to have conversations to consider the potential formation of a tentative exploratory committee to look in to the possibility of floating my candidacy. I hope to have potential decisions narrowed down sometime within the next 12-24 months. Get ready to stay tuned.

1/ 🚨 We just added two heavyweights to our policy team: Former State Reps. @TomDemmer and @mbatinick are officially joining us as policy advisers. Here’s what you can look forward to—and why we're very excited about it. 🧵

"The citizens of Illinois have a right to honest, clean government," he said. "...They have a right to trust and expect that in public officials.  Michael Madigan breached and violated that trust over and over again."

Goooooooo Dayton Flyers!

@MAGAeducator @SafeSuburbsUSA Your new state rep is probably Brad Fritts or Tony McCombie, depending on where you live in my old district. I’m no longer in the House, my last term ended about 2 years ago.

@SafeSuburbsUSA My state representative @TomDemmer posts about once every 3 months. No activity whatsoever. It’s hard to understand, unless it’s intentional.

Donald Trump and most, if not nearly all, leading Republican and conservative voices have used X heavily for their campaigns and messaging. Yet in Illinois, we have found most Republican campaigns, officials, and organizations are either not on X or they barely use it. Why? Illinois Republicans face a huge money disadvantage. Why do more not take advantage of this free platform that thousands of politically minded people are on everyday?

🚨 DAYTON TAKES DOWN NO. 2 UCONN For the 3rd straight outing the Huskies fall, this time at the hands of the Flyers 🤯

We’re having a great night at John’s first @Cubs game!

The @IMA_Today is proud to be part of a broad coalition of business, labor and public interest groups pushing for a new affordable housing tax incentive. As my friend @TomDemmer from Lee County Industrial Development Association opines, "new affordable housing options will provide thousands of Illinoisans with good places to live and support the revitalization of communities that have been stagnated by the housing shortage. And as site selectors and developers evaluate potential project locations, new homes and residents will give Illinois communities a real competitive advantage." #Manufacturing #housing illinoisdelivered.com/2024/05/17/tax…
