I used to be able to see the golden dome of Notre Dame University from the tollway. Also traffic was reasonable coming and going back. A few years ago my wife and I went to see her cousin near Waukegan, WI. The traffic was so bad around Chicago, it took over an hour to get around it. Also, the trees along the highway blocked the view of the dome. Disappointing.

Trump’s Golf Costs: $102 Million And Counting, With Taxpayers Picking Up The Tab
Trump promised never to golf. Instead, he’s spent more than twice as many days golfing as Obama at the same point, costing taxpayers over three times as much.
By S.V. Date
Donald Trump’s golf habit has already cost taxpayers at least $102 million in extra travel and security expenses, and next month will achieve a new milestone: a seven-figure presidential visit to another country so he can play at his own course.
U.S. taxpayers have spent $81 million for the president’s two dozen trips to Florida, according to a HuffPost analysis. They spent $17 million for his 15 trips to New Jersey, another $1 million so he could visit his resort in Los Angeles and at least $3 million for his two days in Scotland last summer ― $1.3 million of which went just for rental cars for the massive entourage that accompanies a presi... less
The Southern Poverty Law Center says emails show Stephen Miller promoted white nationalist theories.
NOEL KING, HOST:... moreThe Southern Poverty Law Center says emails show Stephen Miller promoted white nationalist theories.
NOEL KING, HOST:
Several congressional Democrats are demanding that Stephen Miller resign. Miller, of course, is one of the president's top advisers on immigration. Here's what's going on. The Southern Poverty Law Center says it got a hold of hundreds of Miller's leaked emails. Miller had sent them to a former journalist at Breitbart, and in them, he talks about white nationalist ideas. The White House is calling this a smear campaign. And Miller, for the moment, isn't saying anything.
Jean Guerrero is a reporter at KPBS. She's been writing a book about Stephen Miller, and she has seen the emails. Good morning, Jean.
JEAN GUERRERO, BYLINE: Good morning.
KING: So what are the specifics here? What's in these emails?
GUERRERO: Yeah. So these are emails that were sent to Breitbart editors in 2015 and 2016. And to me, the most revealing part is that Miller recommended a book called "Camp Of The Saints." It's a racis... less
