I registered this account freshman year @SIUC_SoJ. And while authenticity is as dead on this app as the name "Twitter," I'm taking the tremendous joys, lessons, and friendships with me.

@mariecarnes Good morning ☕️

[Capitol Fax @capitolfax]

Gorgeous city visuals and an exciting, new type of NASCAR race. Plus, Chicago watches when they’re the center of attention. Huge number of eyeballs and that drives ratings. NASCAR needs to up the payout tho. A lot. Chicago is now essential to its comeback. $$$

Former president Donald Trump used the first public appearance since his federal indictment to ratchet up attacks on the Justice Department, accusing prosecutors, without evidence, of a politically motivated campaign to keep him from the White House https://t.co/iFcmOA5PPG

Proud to represent @CDLB and take home first place for my division’s Feature Writing and News Reporting-Series awards at the Illinois Press Association Awards.

Or, and hear me out on this one: Republicans could hire black America for real policy-setting positions instead of explaining it to them.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

Republicans need to come to Chicago, sit down w/ the black community, listen, & explain how our policies will benefit black America.

Now is the time.
