When Trump officials want to censor speech, they don’t quite say “we want to censor speech” (after all, they pretend to be the party that “brought free speech back.”) Instead, they find ways to threaten organizations by pretending it’s got nothing to do with the content, even as they can’t hide their true intentions and […]

Facebook video link is here. LOUISVILLE, KY. - On Saturday, April 26, 2025, my daughter, Savannah Brannan, posted perhaps her greatest running accomplishment - topping 3 hours for a 26.2-mile marathon, an incredible feat. Savannah, 26, set this goal a while back and I hoped she would get it on Saturday and the good thing is she did, recording a time of 2 hours, 59 minutes and 46 seconds. She accomplished the goal through grit and determination. The 26.2-mile course was mostly flat, but there was a point of 3-4 miles of hills which made it more difficult, she said. When Savannah could see the finish line, she said she accelerated as fast as she could. Her last mile was 6:10, which I think at the end of a marathon is nearly impossible. She knew she had a chance and did it! It was so cool to hear the announcer recognize her and say that Savannah had broken the 3-hour mark, a huge plateau in female distance running. Savannah is incredibly humble, but she was thrilled to have broke

ST. LOUIS – The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) proudly joins community organizations, law enforcement agencies and public health partners in recognizing National Fentanyl Awareness Day, Tuesday, April 29. Fentanyl is the greatest drug threat facing the United States as drug-related overdoses remain the leading cause of death among Americans ages 18-44. The fentanyl crisis has touched every corner of the country and the Midwest is not immune. In 2023, more than 105,000 Americans died from drug poisonings with nearly 70 percent of those deaths attributed to synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. Provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) predicts a 29 percent decline in drug overdose deaths year-over-year in Illinois, while nationally, a 26.5% decline in drug overdose deaths year-over-year is predicted. Still, the DEA encourages communities to remain vigilant about the risks involved with synthetic drugs and the extreme threat
