Yes, the rumors are true. (Stop saying, “what rumors, who are you people and how did you get into my living room?”) This is the final episode of Sources with Knowledge. Eric and Joe reflect on the program, which managed to outlast both Illinois
After a mere 50 years in the Illinois General Assembly, Michael Madigan has resigned his seat. You just hate to see a career cut short like that. Eric and Joe discuss what this means for the future of Illinois. The media is not letting democrac
Is it just us, or was everything about the Super Bowl boring this year? The game? Dull and over before the 4th quarter. The halftime show? Only good for a new meme of The Weeknd looking confused. The commercials? Uninteresting and forgettable.
It’s Super Bowl weekend. How do we know? Because Tom Brady is playing. Is Saturday Night Live right that Tom Brady is the only thing left in America that still works right? And if so, shouldn’t we all be rooting for him? AOC inflates her Capito
The Biden era is underway with a flurry of executive orders. Queue the whataboutism. But what is everyone missing? This is all because Congress just won’t do its job. Hate the executive orders all you want, and do the dumb comparisons between T
Joe Biden is now President of the United States. I guess Q didn’t come through after all. Imagine that. Eric and Joe take stock of the beginning of the Biden administration and how, technically, for at least 9 minutes we had an illegitimate pre
Everything is happening while Eric and Joe are talking about it. First, impeachment. It was inevitable and it was well deserved. Trump will forever be known as the only president to be impeached twice. Now, on to the Senate. In Springfield, the
On the heels of losses in both Georgia run-off senate races, a gaggle of Trump supports storm the U.S. Capitol building and bring the counting of the electoral votes to a halt. Who could have guessed that being lied to constant for two months a
New year, new Proco “Joe” Moreno? Not so much. The former alderman was charged with DUI after doing a nice job of sideswiping 8 cars in the Gold Coast. It’s just the latest in a long line of crazy Moreno stories. New outmigration numbers are ou
2020: the year that will always feel like it was about 10 years long. Eric and Joe look back at the year that was … something. How will the Trump presidency be remembered? Initial polls show that people have soured even more on his one term, bu
President-elect Joe Biden has his pick for Secretary of Transportation: former South Bend mayor Pete Buttieieg. You know, since South Bend is so famous for its transportation innovation and such. But rest assured, he’s ridden Amtrak a few times
The latest entry in the annals of COVID hypocrisy from politicians: Chicago alderman Tom Tunney. Tunney kept indoor dining at his Ann Sather restaurant going even when all other restaurants are prohibited. Because he’s an alderman and the rules
Another week and another galling example of hypocrisy from politicians telling you to take COVID seriously while they clearly don’t. The newest example: the mayor of Austin, TX, telling people to stay at home while he’s vacationing in Cabo. But
It’s finally over. Trump lost. Biden won. Which those of us who were paying attention for the last three weeks already knew. But not before we got the wildest conspiracy theory ever: that Hugo Chavez stole the election for Joe Biden from beyond
Thanksgiving is here, but the political overlords in Chicago, Illinois and many other parts of the country want to make sure you ignore it. That is, of course, unless you're J.B. Pritzker – then the only question is which mansion should you enj
Former Vice President Joe Biden is now President-Elect Joe Biden. What can we expect from his presidency? Start off with executive order-palooza. Then the people who hated Trump’s executive actions will defend Biden’s and vice versa, as the hyp
That’s fine, America. We didn’t even really want a president anyway. Why are you laughing? We’re serious about that. The presidential election between Donald Trump is still officially undecided. Or maybe it’s not by the time you’re listening to
The end of the election is within sight. At least we think it is, unless Election Day turns into Election Month and the living begin to envy the dead. Eric and Joe offer their semi-baseless predictions for what will and will not happen as Ameri
It’s week two of the Hunter Biden story. Now that some, but not all, of the emails have been corroborated by a former business partner, what are we to make of this? There are three stories in one here: a media story, a legal story and a politic
The confirmation hearings for Amy Coney Barrett are … boring? Are they allowed to be boring? This is 2020, after all. The only mildly not boring parts were Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse’s conspiracy theory insanity and that Barrett said “sexual prefe
You’ve already heard the buzz about the vice presidential debate. We promise not to bug you about it too much. Yes, Kamala Harris larvae’d big charges against Mike Pence for being too MAGAt. Okay, we’ll stop with the fly puns now. Eric and Joe
Knock knock. Who’s there? Interrupting presidential candidates. Interrupting presidential canSHUT UP MAN. No matter how bad you expected the first presidential debate to be, it was worse. It’s almost impossible to talk about anything Trump or B
RIP RBG. The untimely passing of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is, for the stability of our political system, just that: untimely. Strap yourself in for the most starkly naked displays of lying, hypocrisy and exercise of raw political power you’v
If a major Middle East peace deal falls in the woods and there’s only minimal media coverage of it, does it make a sound? No idea, because that question doesn’t make any sense. But the Abraham Accords are a huge deal. And get this: you can ackn
Donald Trump talked to Bob Woodward for his upcoming book on the Trump presidency, “Rage.” This raises a very interesting question: WHY!? Over the course of those interviews Trump apparently admitted to downplaying the seriousness of COVID-19 a
