Show Notes

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker vowed not to back down after President Trump posted on social media that the governor and Mayor Brandon Johnson deserve to be jailed. Demolition of the historic Damen silos resumed. Local artist Tonika Lewis Johnson is among the latest class of MacArthur “Genius” Fellows, which were announced this morning. Plus, if you look closely at a map of Chicago, you can see a hole on the Southwest Side in the 19th Ward. It’s a part of the city that’s not officially part of the city. Curious City has the story behind that hole.
