US Rep. Underwood Announces $1 Million In Funds To Oglesby For Pipe Replacement Infrastructure improvements are never cheap. Oglesby is getting help from the federal government in paying for a clean water project.

Everyone deserves access to clean drinking water. I secured over $1 million to replace water pipes in Oglesby impacted by lead.

This company should be nationalized, torn apart, and sold back to the industry as spare parts.

Yes. This is transparently the plan. It is a destructive and unconstitutional plan. And it can be stopped. It can even be turned into an electoral issue that hurts Trump. But only if we face this now.

Trump’s military excursion, into an abyss The evident fact is that the president is nuts.

β€œThere’s no reason to expect that Trump’s Iranian debacle will prevent him from lighting yet another match of chaos or conflict. In fact, experience teaches that Trump bristling from a failure makes him more, not less, likely to do something equally stupid, and to do so soon.”

Update on this class: the person we're studying was a Christian anti-communist preacher who ran a training camp for Klansman & neo-Nazis in Colorado in the 1960s. We struggled to nail down the site of the camp, so one of my students emailed the county clerk & got the plat maps for it. I'm kvelling.

As a public service, I’d like everyone to know that you are still *legally allowed* to say these 14 factual things about General Q aka Mike Flynn.

You’re welcome.

Screencapture images of CBC and NYT using a file photo of a body of water that vaguely resembles the left-to-right shape of the Strait of Hormuz, but which is visibly not nearly to scale. This is clearly a river or estuary system (complete with visible floodplains) and not the Strait. It is missing several cities that would be clearly visible at this scale. The photo was also taken from high altitude but clearly not from outer space, making the angle of capture impossible to fit Hormuz into the same frame.

So, I've seen this image come up twice now in news coverage of the Strait of Hormuz.

First it was The New York Times' "The Daily" podcast.

Next, CBC News' generally excellent "About That" webseries.

Folks, this is not the Strait of Hormuz.

The Trump WH is starting to reap what it has sown in terms of screwing over counterparties:
-Iran can't trust a negotiated settlement so why reach one?
-Ds in Congress can't trust Trump to follow the law so why bargain w/him?
-Universities see past deals leading to future shakedowns so why make one?

Interesting how all the right-wing and pro-Israel accounts here remain obsessed about Mamdani and his wife but barely a peep about the Manhattan Institute poll that revealed a majority of young Republicans are Holocaust deniers and love Nick Fuentes, who praises Hitler and is an open anti-semite.

The GOP is aggressively becoming more Nazi every day, literally sharing talking points, conspiracy theories, and supporting people who love Hitler, but we keep treating them like a normal party, and you have some Democrats who still preach civility and bipartisanship.

Amazing.

Elon Musk is now worth $845 billion.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025.

Meanwhile, nearly a quarter of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and household debt has risen to a record high.

See the problem here?
