"Peoria Heights Fire Dept falling apart....
https://www. centralillinoisproud.com/ news/local-news/peoria-he ights-fire-aid/
So now the City Fire Dept will automatically respond to all Peoria Heights emergency calls.
If there is 1 thing that Peoria County can do as a whole is screw up interoperability. Police, Fire, events, it doesn't matter. These agencies just CANNOT work together the right way and it's going to get someone killed.....oh wait, that's already happened...."

"State champion girls basketball coach resigns from Notre Dame
https://d1fa xni2kverf5.cloudfront.net /forumimgs/Peoria251007cu 1r.jpg
The girls basketball coach at the catholic high school RESIGNED? Uh oh. He didn't retire, nor did he just step away from, or pause, he RESIGNED. There's got to be more to this story. I wonder what he did, or more likely, who did he piss off at the Diocese? They have their own way of dealing with things. Did they force his hand? Is there something we're no..."

"AG Pam Bondi Senate Hearing
Held today in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee. She answered questions to a bipartisan committee. However, when testifying before Senator Durbin, she tended to deflect from answering his questions.
Don't believe it?
Here's the link to an UNBIASED source STRAIGHT from the DJT Government:
C-SPAN. And it's the full hearing, with transcripts below the video box. NOTHING edited out of context, and not fake news.

"Cool off with Ice
Not talking about an cool drink in a glass with ice cubes. How about using ice to cool your house instead of traditional A/C or Central Air? Well, maybe not yet, but new buildings, and existing ones, including hospitals are installing a new system.
Every night some 74,000 gallons (280,000 liters) of water are frozen at Norton Audubon Hospital in Louisville, Kentucky. The hospital used to get all of its air conditioning from a conventional system found in most U.S. buildings, but now..."

"Things I noticed this morning.
While out and about, I noticed that Kroger on Lake has taken out its fresh meat/seafood display/sales area and replaced it with stand-up coolers. That doesn't surprise me as the last few times there, the selection of individual offerings were pretty scarce.
Across Lake Street, after months of renovations due to a car crashing into their building, Sweet Basil Cafe must have decided against re-opening as a "Space Available" banner is hanging from the building...."

"Congressional Hypocrisy
A new Democratic House representative was elected from Arizona is a special election from about 2 weeks ago. She takes over from her dad, who passed away.
The issue: Speaker Johnson refuses to swear her in, even though tradition is newly elected representatives, especially from special elections, get sworn in right away.
Johnson wants to wait until the full Congress reconvenes, perhaps Tuesday or Wednesday this week. He wouldn't do it last week because Congress was in a 'pro f..."
