Juliana Stratton, Illinois lieutenant governor and U.S. Senate candidate, talks with WCPT 820's Richard Chew about how seeing fellow Illinoisans show up and be active in politics kept her inspired throughout her campaign.

U.S. @underwood.house.gov (D-IL) slams Attorney General Pam Bondi for her role in defending the DOJ's handling of the Epstein files so far. "She continues to insert herself as a main character in this story, not on the side of justice and the people, but on the side of the wealthy..."

Tennessee State Sen. John Stevens (R), the sponsor of a new Congressional map that will eliminate the state's only Democrat-held seat, claims to have no knowledge of the new district lines he drew.

Per WSMV: Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton (R) says he and Republican leadership will look into the consequences for Democrats who protested the GOP's new gerrymandered map on the House floor.

Minnesota State Sen. Torrey Westrom (R-Alexandria) opposes restrictions to high-capacity firearm magazines because "I know situations where the bad guy coming in, you need more than 17 bullets."

The four remaining members of the “Broadview Six,” who are being criminally charged for protesting at the Illinois ICE detention center, filed a motion urging a federal judge to release grand jury transcripts. They say prosecutors kept a felony conspiracy charge despite saying it was dismissed.

When legislators decide to police who gets to exist in public spaces, some people take that as permission to show up armed. Corey Williams, Miss Gay Ohio 2026, knows that firsthand. His response then and his words to the Ohio House this week are something everyone should hear.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker has a short message for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem after she was fired by President Donald Trump: "Hey Kristi Noem, don't let the door hit you on the way out." "Now that you're gone, don't think you get to just walk away. I guarantee you, you will still be held accountable."

Bill O'Neill, former Ohio Supreme Court justice, Democratic congressional candidate, and a Vietnam War veteran, tells WCPT 820's Richard Chew that the Iran War is a "rerun" of Vietnam. "We're doing the same thing all over again. I see Iran as a rerun."

Illinois State Sen. Cristina Castro (D) tells WCPT’s Patti Vasquez about the Interchange Fee Prohibition Act (IFPA), a bill she sponsored that will ban companies from charging businesses swipe fees on the sales tax and tips portion of credit card bills.

I hope she's right, that this is the Confederacy's last dying breath that we're experiencing. But it won't be true unless actual consequences occur. This is the reoccurring sin of this country, evil is never effectively punished.

I’m often asked on the trail: how will we pay for health care and protect Social Security? The place I start is by rolling back Trump’s tax breaks for the richest 1%. In my lifetime, we’ve seen the biggest shift of wealth from middle class families to billionaires. #NHPolitics

Cosmic Fantasy 2's presentation added plenty of gloss over its gameplay, garnering fans and even a limited reprint years later for the Nintendo Switch in 2024. And like the TG-16 CD version of Ys I & II, Cosmic Fantasy 2 became another cutting edge example of the kind of CD magic that was possible!
