I promise you, Ro Khanna, my daughter was scared when she was forced to take her last breath. I was not there to hold her as she slipped away. For years, Americans were told about “robust vetting” and “screening.” My family learned the cost of those false assurances when an illegal immigrant, driving intoxicated and in this country unlawfully, killed my daughter under the very policies you champion and still defend. Oh, and he got a release date — because of course he did. Katie got the grave. Katie’s family got a life sentence of grief while he got another chance. Your one-sided hyperbolic rhetoric would fit right in with J.B. Pritzker, his allies and the Illinois media that protects him. How far we have fallen when men like you are treated as moral leaders while families like mine are left with graves, not justice. Bang-up job sir!









What movie/movies should never be REMADE... I'll Start: Back to the Future


Film literacy among young people is at an all time low. My gen z students are shockingly unfamiliar with many key landmarks of modern cinema that were released in the 1990s



BREAKING: The DOJ has arrested a special forces soldier who made $400,000 betting on the removal of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, according to ABC. Federal investigators say the soldier bet more than $33,000 just hours before Trump announced Maduro's capture. The special forces soldier was reportedly directly involved with the capture. "The largest position -- a $32,537 bet that Maduro would be out of office by Jan. 31 -- resulted in a 1,242% profit of $404,222," ABC News reported. "Following his successful trading relating to Maduro- and Venezuela-related contracts, [Gannon Ken] VAN DYKE allegedly sent most of his proceeds to a foreign cryptocurrency vault before depositing them into a newly created online brokerage account. The same day of the operation, VAN DYKE withdrew the majority of his allegedly unlawful proceeds from his Polymarket account..." the DOJ announced. "VAN DYKE, 38, of Fayetteville, North Carolina, is charged with three counts of violating the Commodity Exchange Act, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison; one count of wire fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; and one count of an unlawful monetary transaction, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison."




Trevor @BauerOutage struck out 8 over 4 innings 3 walks 2 earned Runs in his @LIDucks debut. Would you pay or tune in to watch him pitch? Does he deserve a chance in the #MLB? He has been cleared legally, does that matter to you? Huge turn out to watch him in #LongIsland, abruptly left after he was taken out of the game.

who’s that one bust, that u will always believe in?
