This platform has become rather dark. Where are the knights?

Getting ready for your July Fourth weekend? We are still soaring from our Grand Opening ceremony – and enjoying this video of an unexpected guest with a birds-eye view.

A few of our eagle-eyed guests caught sight of an actual bald eagle flying overhead during the ceremony.

There’s more to learn: Some bald eagles are known to be nesting at Park 597 near the Calumet River, where two eaglets were recently spotted.

Be sure to send us your nickname ideas for the bald eagle, along with any sightings of your own!

And Happy Independence Day!

The fact that more people are being priced out of affording a home and that it's getting harder for families to buy their first home is "unimportant" to the president.

@RpsAgainstTrump Make it make sense. This is idiocy on purpose.

@McFaul He said, " I want 10% ownership...". That's dictatorship, not communism.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

State ownership of companies is communism.

Shocking to me how passive Republicans have reacted to these Trump actions. I thought they believed in capitalism, free enterprise, and the like.

GrabAGun, aiming to be the "Amazon of guns," could benefit from proposed Trump administration changes to gun regulations.

Donald Trump Jr., a board member, stands to gain from these changes. https://t.co/dA3p1a23qG

[Rolling Stone @RollingStone]

Trump said that his children have access to "inside information" due to his presidency and then likened their woes to buying a frosted pastry

This is outrageous. American taxpayers just shelled out hundreds of millions to renovate a luxury jet "gifted" to Trump by a foreign nation where his family has active business ties. While inflation on your flights and at the pump is costing working families, he's flying in opulence on your dime.

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

Wage growth is down compared to last year just as inflation is spiking. That means workers' real wages are shrinking.

To restore purchasing power, Trump and the Fed must act to reign in the price spike caused by the Iran War.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Attendees aren’t impressed with Trump’s Great American State Fair:

"I've been to state fairs all throughout the US. This is terrible. It's a program length advertisement for the president”

"I'm totally underwhelmed. It's part-political…This is so bland”

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

The Freedom 250 rehearsal stage falling apart is the perfect analogy for the Trump administration.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

This is huge! Trump appears to have committed wire fraud in essentially stealing American tax dollars for his "Freedom 250" scam.

LOCK HIM UP!

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Huh???

UN commission of inquiry says Israel committing genocide in Gaza by deliberately targeting children https://t.co/v7Cul4wHzP

[Rep. Summer Lee @RepSummerLee]

The Pentagon is the only place in America where you can fail 8 audits in a row, admit you’ll fail the next few & still get handed more money than you asked for.

But let a family need help buying groceries and suddenly it’s a lecture about hard work, responsibility & bootstraps.

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

Trump’s national guard really threatened a Swedish journalist for touching the reflecting pool water.

[Reuters @Reuters]

Israeli authorities and security forces deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in Gaza, and war crimes in the occupied West Bank, an independent UN inquiry said https://t.co/61poVhRzmR

NEW: Iran is publicly calling out Donald Trump and JD Vance for LYING, directly contradicting key claims the Trump regime has made about the U.S.-Iran agreement.

After Trump claimed that any released Iranian funds would be tightly controlled by the United States and used only for approved humanitarian purchases, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson flatly rejected that characterization:

“Regarding Iran’s released assets, previously illegally blocked by the U.S., WE will decide how to utilize them as we deem fit; there are NO restrictions in this regard.”

Iran also pushed back on Vance’s claims about future nuclear inspections.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said:

“Iran has no plans to allow IAEA inspectors to enter nuclear sites that were damaged during the war.”

[Steve Rattner @SteveRattner]

The Trump admin waived Russian oil sanctions to mitigate the disastrous impact of the Iran War on energy markets.

Russia made about $22 billion from that 98-day lapse, and roughly 40% of that likely went to fund its illegal war in Ukraine.
