The Center for American Progress says that our recent big deficits are due to Republican tax cuts.

Spending ...continue reading "Yes, of course big deficits are due to tax cuts"

ALTON - The Alton Redbirds girl's soccer team can consider themselves lucky that they have such a lethal attacker on their side. That would be none other than senior forward Emily Baker. She burst onto the scene last season with an impressive 31-goal campaign. She is already off and running this season with eight goals in just five games. For her continued success, Emily is an Auto Butler Athlete of the Month for the Redbirds. Usually, the fastest player on the field, Emily uses her speed and agility to get behind defensive lines constantly. Whenever she is on the field, the other team must know where she is at all times. Saturday, against the defending two-time IHSA Class 2A state champions Triad Knights, Emily scored a brace to get her team back into the game. Alton went down 2-0 after the first half, but Emily's two second-half strikes, one being a penalty, tied the game back up at 2-2. Although the Redbirds went on to lose the game, Triad head coach Matt Bettlach still praised
