If a more innovative and risk-taking singer-songwriter than Rosalía exists on the contemporary pop scene, they’ve yet to appear in Chicago. https://t.co/utiQXQY1D3
This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”
Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”
Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”
Silence.
The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.
50% of Americans don’t have a passport.
The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.
The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.
This is not voter protection.
This is voter selection.
And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.
That’s the Senate in 2026.

Watch this video. Republican Sen. Katie Britt took a story about a woman’s sex trafficking ordeal two decades ago in Mexico and blamed Joe Biden’s immigration policies for it. Republicans lie with such ease.
As more than 10,000 migrants have come to Chicago since August, overwhelming the city's social services, nonprofit organizations and faith-based groups are stepping up to help the government respond.

There are so many reasons to grieve the death of Harry Belafonte.
And yet, grief cannot be separated from gratitude, or from the worlds of good Belafonte did for so many, across a long, rich life, writes @phillipstribune. https://t.co/vBcuN9ueJT
@SamFeldtMusic Winging it for the win. Hard to argue, it’s a great name. What’s the discourse on this, @SamFeldtMusic fans? Is it all about the name, like should I have become a DJ?
@SkyKintzel And that ending feels like it was very chopped up. There’s got to be more there than the reveal and the shriek that didnt make it out of the studio.
