Disgraced former US House Speaker Dennis Hastert died at 84. Here's a bad pic I took of him leaving court in 2015 after pleading guilty to banking violations over hush money to cover up sex abuse of hs wrestlers. @WBBMNewsradio

Today, I’ll cast my first Senate vote since I took a bad fall back in June. I’m really looking forward to being back on the Senate floor and seeing my colleagues.
My recovery has been a long and often frustrating process, and the lingering effects of childhood polio haven’t made it any easier. I’m still not quite back to 100%, but I’ve assured Leader Thune that, as I continue with physical therapy on the advice of my doctors, I will do my best to be present for tough votes when our Conference needs me.
Elaine and I are very grateful for all the continued well wishes from our fellow Kentuckians, and I’m glad to get back to more of business as usual on their behalf this month.
Ending months of questions and speculation, Brandon Johnson is announcing he's running for re-election.

Gloria Steinem, the pioneering journalist and activist who became one of the most influential figures in the modern feminist movement, has died at 92. Steinem died peacefully Wednesday at her home in New York City surrounded by loved ones, according to a statement on her official Instagram account.
Over decades of activism, she championed causes including reproductive rights, domestic violence prevention and gender equality in the workplace.
Maybe we'll see her again
