“The costs of things are absolutely the first thing people talk about, but also it’s their pay not keeping up with the cost. It’s a double whammy.”

[ABC News @ABC]

Filling up a Ford F-150 truck now costs about $100, up $30 from a year ago. Mortgage rates have jumped to levels that have depressed home sales. And for the past 12 months, consumer prices have risen faster than paychecks, making the average family poorer. https://t.co/oe5FIOFYfk

It’s official. I’ve submitted my petitions to get on the ballot for Mayor, Chicago ❤️

We delivered my petitions Chicago-style: in a tamale cart. Thank you to Jorge Haro and La Casa Del Pueblo for providing delicious tamales this morning.

I’m running for mayor to give small business owners, entrepreneurs, working families and all Chicagoans a voice at City Hall.

Ours is a people-powered campaign. Thank you to all the supporters who came out - I couldn’t have done it without all your hard work.

And thank you to every Chicagoan who signed my petition and took a bet on a brighter future for our City.

PR pro-tip: Don’t blame your earpiece or the connection to dodge journalist questions during a live media interview. As this exchange shows, such an evasion speaks volumes and can do more damage to your credibility than a straightforward answer would have.

Yes, and it ended the cold war.

"Talk about an October surprise."

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

CNN: This gas price spike is stunning. Voters were already very mad about high gas prices. Now they're going much higher. Talk about an October surprise. Two days ago, the average in Michigan was $4.44 a gallon. Look where we are now. $4.77 a gallon. That's a $0.33 increase. Look at Ohio, another major battleground state. We're looking at a $0.39 increase in the last two days.

Honoring the life of Iron Mike, one of the game’s greats and a Chicago legend.

Good news from the Vatican today on the health and recovery of Pope Leo XIV

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

Pope Leo XIV’s doctors have confirmed that the tumor removed on October 13 was a lung adenocarcinoma and that the disease was localized.

Dr. Luigi Carbone and Professor Stefano Margaritora said on Wednesday evening that a subsequent oncological assessment has confirmed that “no further treatment is necessary.”

One White House podium, four press secretaries, and a new face now taking questions.

Katie Zacharia makes her debut as President Trump's latest press secretary, just days after stepping into the role.

Her first appearance puts the spotlight back on how the White House introduces its chief spokesperson to the press, from Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre under Biden to Karoline Leavitt under Trump.

See how their first moments behind the podium compare, and hear more from Katie Zacharia tonight on 'Hannity' at 9 p.m. ET.

@LeighGiangreco It is amusing when it’s played, though. Like the effect of blaring “Fortunate Son” on the Fourth of July.

Prayers for Pope Leo XIV and his full recovery.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

Pope Leo XIV's surgery confirmed that he has lung cancer and he had the lower lobe of his right lung removed, the Vatican said Tuesday.

The tests confirmed a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma, the Vatican said in a medical bulletin after the surgery. It said the diagnosis had been suspected by preoperative tests and was confirmed during surgery.

[Adekunle @Gotimehomie]

This is how every man should play the game Gaby really fell for it.🥹📺🍿
