Clearly we need leadership from our federal government and it is frustrating to witness the continued lies coming from the daily White House press briefings. Seeing Dan Rather on one of the Sunday morning shows today, stating coverage of the White House press briefings should stop, was amazing. Our amazing IL JB Pritzker continues to apply pressure on the Feds to lead. JB's daily briefings, unlike those of the White House, instill confidence here in Illinois, transparency and hope that action is being taken.

We have been anxiously awaiting the season finale of Curb Your Enthusiasm tonight. We certainly are in need of a good laugh. We also are looking forward to the season finale of This is Us on Tuesday. It's the small pleasures each day and your friendship that enrich us and remind us of what's most important.
