#lasallestreetblues Google will open a second regional headquarters on Chicago’s deco-studded La Salle Street in 2026, but some anxious developers question the city’s commitment to the street’s revitalization. @ChicagoMag @mrbachtell #tombachtell #cbot chicagomag.com/chicago-magazi…
BREAKING: President Biden just forcefully demanded Speaker Johnson bring the Foreign Aid package to the House floor. Retweet to ensure the whole country knows Donald Trump, Mike Johnson and Republicans are obstructing American national security interests.

Bump and Grind nybooks.com/articles/2023/… via @nybooks. Drawing by @mrbachtell “…It’s that all of this drags us back into Trump’s territory. This episode comes from, and gives new life to, the world of performative politics in which he remains the leading player.”
Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida is riding the politics of a mythic past to woo a benighted and aggrieved Republican Party base. Good luck with that. He’s branding himself into a political corner.

Legal experts in Georgia caution that jury selection in the Fulton County election interference against Trump is unlikely to follow the quick pace of jury selection in Manhattan. tl;dr We do things more slowly in the south. 11alive.com/article/news/s…
It's an art, if I may say, to write a column about Dante and have it lead Chicago Public Square. chicagopublicsquare.com
Joe Biden is busy running a country and campaigning coast to coast. Donald is sleep-farting in a Manhattan courtroom 4 days a week and golfing with all his free time. Who's the old man?
What are the odds you’ll have to pay Trump for your pregnancy monitoring?
BREAKING: New reporting is exposing the fact that the Communist Party of China paid Donald Trump $5.4 million while he was in office. This needs to be a much bigger story.
This is crazy. On so many levels. These students have taken over and are illegally occupying a university building, and they damaged that building in the process of taking it over. It’s crazy the university hasn’t immediately arrested & removed every one of them. And it’s crazy…
Reporter grills Columbia student after she demands the university help feed protestors occupying Hamilton Hall: "It seems like you're saying, 'we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take over this building, now would you please bring us some food'."
This was so smart.
The Biden-Harris campaign is out with a new video responding to Trump's abortion comments to Time Magazine
“On Tuesday, a court of law held a former president of the United States in criminal contempt. In 235 years of American presidents, this has never happened before. With today’s contempt order, we are all witnesses to judicial and presidential history.” slate.com/news-and-polit…
I have no clue who these people thought their audience was. Both left, right, and center all are pissed at them. I guess America can still unify.
Cheers from the crowd as protesters from Columbia University are arrested and transported out of campus via NYPD bus.
Ruby Bridges Reflects On 1960 School Integration—And Slams Book Bans Trying To 'Cover Up History' comicsands.com/ruby-bridges-b…
The law-and-order guy found in contempt of court. Let me say it again: Contempt. Of court. Contempt. The times we’re in. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Tribune Op-ed nails it: With Bears, Chicago’s cheerleading mayor hasn't secured fair deal for taxpayers chicagotribune.com/2024/04/30/opi…
I fear that whatever political damage is being done to Trump by the trial in lower Manhattan is being overwhelmed by the boost he's getting nine miles to the north on the Columbia campus.
Trump deleted 9 posts from Trash Social today, but you know he can't keep it together. He'll violate the judge's orders again. He lacks disciple and character.
Look who I ran into at a party for Clive Davis:), in NY- Ari Melber, the fabulous Patty Smyth, and her husband and my friend, Johnny Mac:)
Trump wants to "monitor women's pregnancies" to arrest them if they seek abortions, while Kristi Noem thinks 10-year-old rape victims should be forced to give birth, or be jailed. This is the mainstream Republican Party, where cruelty is the platform
“I’m a little embarrassed to say that I voted for Donald Trump in 2016; by ‘18, I realized I made a terrible mistake…. I’m sorry that Joe Biden is old, I wish he was 10 or 20 years younger, but that’s our only option. So we need to get behind him.”
I am saddened to hear of the passing of Michael Cuscuna, a longtime friend who produced my second album, Give it Up, in 1972. He was smart, funny and brilliant -- one of a kind. (1/4)
For all those who hate big government, know that it becomes super powered under a dictatorship. No aspect of your life will be without a long list of freshly minted requirements and rules thought up, on-the-fly, by crazed partisan imbeciles. Minority rule requires control.
