    2025/01/30
    We can like or dislike our second time President Donald J. Trump. But we better, we all better, listen and pay attention to everything he says, because he’s changing the ways we are living our lives, most dramatically changing the way he’s dealing with our immigration crisis. President Trump is dispatching federal agents, mostly armed […]

    2025/01/23
    I am sure that I am not the only person having had enough, enough, enough already of that Zuckerberg guy. Mark Zuckerberg, the multibillionaire who owns and operates Instagram and Facebook. In case you’ve missed it, Mark Zuckerberg is changing the way he operates Facebook. He’s now permitting messages to be online before they’ve been […]

    Walter Jacobson’s Perspective 1-9-25: Politics have no place in schools
    2025/01/09
    Well, finally, finally, we now have only a few days to wait for the first meeting of Chicago’s first-ever publicly elected Board of Education.

    2024/12/19
    Considering my very sad but nonetheless much-loved Chicago Bears, I’m wondering right now what I’ll do this coming Sunday, knowing very well what I’ll do is what I do every Sunday this time of year: Make myself a chicken salad sandwich, say a prayer to the gods of football, sit down in front of the […]

    Walter Jacobson’s Perspective 11-14-24: The media helped Donald Trump get reelected
    2024/11/14
    My computer this morning, along with everything else I’m reading, is loaded with news about Donald Trump creating a new White House administration.
