Bears asking to pay less taxes than a Nordstrom and cheesecake factory and I'm supposed to blame the state for saying "hold on man"?

I think the next mayor of Chicago should make 5-day work weeks illegal between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Give the people a summer Friday, we only have three months of glorious weather like this

Hundreds of Chicagoans from the South and West sids ran three miles Saturday along 103rd Street to spark a conversation about how vacant lots along the corridor could be transformed into restaurants, gyms and community centers. wbez.org/transportation/2026ā¦

Deeply disappointed in @TheTRiiBE for refusing to respect its workersā wishes to unionize and for this alleged act of retaliation against @corli_jay. I support the workers

I'll say this... I'm not surprised many people here on X are celebrating the termination of several great journalists at WGN. Most of those posts are from anonymous keyboard warriors, typing and replying feverishly with slop, it's impressive to be honest.
But Chicago has prided itself in true *local* journalism. And Chicagoans have gone to their favorite channels for news for generations. Whether it be "Chicago's Very Own" or @ABC7Chicago or any other station here. And these terminations set a dangerous precedent.
Those who don't live here will applaud the loss of these great people, many who are household names in this city.
I just want to wish all those fine former employees well. I'm hopeful all of you find success again. Just know our newsroom sends love and support. We know it's a brutally tough day for those who remain at WGN and we are thinking of you too.
Don't let the slop here on X bring us down. Let them scream into the void as you'll now see in the replies below this post. Local journalism is not dead but it's no doubt changing rapidly. We are not going anywhere anytime soon! šŗšø

Illinois was ready to move this bill forward.
After a productive three hour meeting yesterday, the Bears leaders requested the ILGA pause the hearing to make further tweaks to the bill.
This morning, we were surprised to see a statement lauding Indiana and ignoring Illinois.

Da Bears have released a statement seeming to commit to build in Hammond after Indiana passed the Hammond stadium bill.

Stopped by Vice Chair Rita Mayfieldās office, she was not there. She is coming in later for some sessions. According to a staffer in her office, the meeting may have been canceled because itās still early in session and more witnesses and work can still be done on various bills.
