WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump walked out of his negotiating meeting with congressional leaders Wednes- day — “I said bye-bye,” he tweeted soon after — as efforts to end the 19-day partial gov- ernment shutdown fell into deeper disarray over his de- mand for billions of dollars to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.

Rex W. Huppke

President Donald Trump forced his way onto network television Tuesday night and delivered an address that looked for all the world like an unfunny “Saturday Night Live” skit aimed at mocking President Donald Trump. His voice droned. He sniffed and sniffed. He squinted at the teleprompter, sleepily delivering lies about immigration and immi- grants and the ludicrous border wall he will never see built. The wall will pay for itself! (Nonsense.) There’s a crisis at our border!

SPRINGFIELD – As Democrats bolstered their numbers in Springfield on Wednesday ahead of Gov.- elect J.B.

Targos said that along with fellow furloughed workers, contractors they work with won’t be able to continue their work. She’s also concerned about con- struction projects that could be pushed into 2020 after a late start. “The people I work with are so proud to do this work to protect human health and the environment the best that we can,” she said. “What kind of job do we do? We work for the public interest. We’d have to go into a different sector.” Targos said she would have been in the office Tuesday. Instead, she went to O’Hare International Air- port to stand in solidarity with other workers affected by the shutdown. “I’m really concerned about what he’s going to do tonight in his address,” Tar- gos said, about Trump’s address to the nation planned for Tuesday night.

Development proposed for McDonald’s Plaza site By Chuck Fieldman Pioneer Press

A proposed mixed-use development at the McDon- ald’s Plaza site along the north side of 22nd Street at Spring Road would bring retail stores, restaurants, of- fice space, condominiums, luxury rental apartments and park space to Oak Brook. Hines, a 63-year-old pri- vately owned global real estate investment, devel- opment and management firm with a presence in more than 200 cities in 24 countries, gave the Village Board a preliminary review Tuesday of the project.

Fire debris needs to go somewhere Officials scramble to find a place that will take tons of rubble By Laura Newberry Times

LOS ANGELES — The long road to recovery in the town of Paradise starts with removing millions of tons of charred rubble left in the Camp Fire’s wake. But the question remains: Where will it all go? Disaster officials are scrambling to secure a place to sort and process the remnants of nearly 19,000 structures destroyed in the wildfire that began Nov. 8 and killed 86 people. The mammoth undertaking has been slowed by opposition in nearby communities eyed as potential sites for a temporary scrapyard, which would receive 250 to 400 truckloads of concrete and metal each day.

He suggested a deal for his border wall might be get- ting closer, but he also said the shutdown would last “whatever it takes.” He discussed the pos- sibility of a sweeping immi- gration compromise with Democrats to protect some immigrants from deporta- tion but provided no clear strategy or timeline for re- solving the standoff, accord- ing to senators in the private ALEX BRANDON/AP session.

But the old Chicago isn’t a distant memory, either. The fiefdoms and inside deals that squeeze and abuse taxpayers still exist. Can machine politics be destroyed? Will Chi- cago ever go completely straight? With one allegedly corrupt alderman awaiting trial, the dean of the City Council accused of wrongdoing and an election approaching, fed-up voters will get their say in rejecting unsavory tradition.

OP-ART JOE FOURNIER Chicago Tribune | Section 1 | Thursday, January 10, 2019 19 PERSPECTIVE

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Shutdown’s the greater danger Many a U.S. representative or sen- ator has had to wrestle with deciding between doing what is right for the nation and doing what he or she thinks is popular with the voting base. Senate Republicans are currently dealing with this problem. The current shutdown is the third one of 2018, with this latest one flowing into 2019. They know that the president’s demand for a border wall is fiscally unsound. They have seen the pictures of closed national sites and garbage piling up in sites partially opened. Will air traffic con- trollers and Transportation Security Administration agents continue to report to work? This shutdown is more dangerous to our national security than the lack of a wall. Sen. Mitch McConnell said he would not put forth a bill to reopen the gov- ernment that the president is sure to veto.

Three days after this year’s wild-card round, in which the Eagles eliminated the Bears 16-15 at Soldier Field, Nagy is in search of a new defensive coordinator. The Bears sought to replace Fangio with former Jets coach Todd Bowles, but he chose to rejoin Arians in Tampa Bay. It’s a good problem for the Bears to have. Broncos President John Elway wouldn’t have hired Fangio if the defense hadn’t been impressive the last few seasons. In fact, it was dominant this season, ranking first in scoring defense and leading the league in several key statistical categories, including run defense, takeaways and opponents’ passer rating. Fangio doesn’t leave after a Super Bowl title, as Ryan did, but the defense is young with foundational players at all three levels, meaning the work Fangio did since arriving as the coordinator under Fox leaves the Bears well-positioned to excel CHRIS SWEDA/CHICAGO TRIBUNE for seasons to come.

FINDING VIC FANGIO’S REPLACEMENT

“(He) knows in certain situations what to do. He knows how to game plan. So as much as I’d like to say it’s not going to change, I would think it’s going to change a little bit.” — Brian Urlacher, to WMVP-AM 1000, on Vic Fangio

Defense on spin cycle

By Rich Campbell and Dan Wiederer | Chicago Tribune

Vic Fangio is moving on. The Bears defensive coordinator is leaving Chicago to become the Broncos head coach. And now general manager Ryan Pace and coach Matt Nagy face their first major challenge in trying to sustain the momentum of their breakthrough 2018 season. Over the last four years, Fangio lifted the Bears defense from near the bottom of the NFL, molding that unit into one of the league’s most respected groups. This season, the Bears led the NFL in takeaways and points allowed. But with Fangio heading west, that leaves Nagy with big shoes to fill as he searches for a new coordinator. Every candidate will present strengths and weaknesses. Here are five questions to consider as the Bears search for Fangio’s replacement.

BULLS NOTES LaVine attacks rim, searching for more calls By K.C. Johnson Chicago Tribune

PORTLAND, Ore. — Zach LaVine is shooting a career-high 87 percent on a career-high 5.9 free-throw attempts per game. That’s the good news. The bad news is that LaVine believes he should be going to the line even more often. In part by following Jim Boylen’s preferred philosophy to drive the ball instead of settling for jump shots, the 6-foot-5 guard is attacking the rim. A lot. There have been several recent in- stances when LaVine has raised his hands in protest, thinking he drew a foul. In other words, LaVine — and the Bulls — want LaVine’s free-throw attempts to rise. “I think I’ve done a good job of finishing through the contact,” LaVine said. “It gets frustrating, but it’s part of the game. You can’t dwell on it. Get a tech here and there, maybe.” LaVine, who has drawn only two technical fouls this season, chuckled as he offered that last thought. His serious approach is to keep doing what he’s doing. “I think in the first 20 games, I was top 10 in free throws. I haven’t really changed my approach or any moves I’m doing. It’s got to be a respect thing,” LaVine said. “But every game is different. The consistency will come eventually, especially when you get to that level of being known as one of those dudes who gets to the line and gets fouls. I’ll keep doing the same thing.”

Rotation roulette: As the morning shootaround ended, Boylen sat next to Jabari Parker, showing him film clips on a laptop. Could Parker, who hadn’t played in 10 of the Bulls’ previous 11 games before Wednesday’s because of coach’s decision or illness, be getting a reprieve? “Shaq’s still the backup (small forward),” Boylen said, referencing Shaquille Harri- son. Boylen said he merely wanted Parker to watch some clips with him. “We’re adding things,” Boylen said. “We’re refining things as we get to know each other and play together and get healthy people back. I want him to have a feel for what we’re trying to do. He doesn’t get all the practice reps because, obviously, he hasn’t been playing. So we watched a THEARON W. HENDERSON/GETTY couple of his defensive situations and we The Timberwolves were treading water with Tom Thibodeau, an unpopular coach who alienated the business side of the operation. watched 15 offensive clips of the position he would play or the position he was VIEW FROM MINNESOTA playing in that clip. Just try to help him, coach him through.” The defensive-minded Harrison closed Friday’s overtime loss to the Pacers, while Boylen opted for the more offensive- minded Antonio Blakeney in Sunday’s loss Fast Thibodeau firing to the Nets. What drives that decision? “It’s just gut, a feel, a matchup situation, who’s on the floor,” Boylen said. “All those things play into it. I like both those guys, was actually overdue and they both bring different things.” By Chip Scoggins Minneapolis Star Tribune Backcourt’s shot

MINNEAPOLIS — The Timberwolves’ to prove itself decision to fire Tom Thibodeau midseason after two consecutive wins came as a Bulls, from Page 1 shock to many inside and outside the organization. Yes, indeed, the timing of his “If we keep working,” LaVine said, dismissal Sunday was surprising. before making an important addition. “But What took them so long? you’re not going to be mentioned as one of Thibodeau’s ouster was inevitable after the best backcourts unless you start getting his bungled handling of the Jimmy Butler some wins.” fiasco. Team executives already knew they The Bulls have now lost five straight, had a “Thibs problem” going back to last and the remainder of the trip doesn’t get season, when the T’wolves finally ended a any easier. lengthy playoff drought and yet everyone This game turned late in the third seemed miserable and Thibodeau’s quarter.

Bulls’ second unit 56-41. Thibodeau looked out the window and Thibodeau felt he needed Butler to win big. Coaches McCollum finished with 24 points, said, Ah, what a lovely day it is. tend to operate with short-term blinders. They live in while Lillard added 16 points and 10 assists. Thibodeau was done at that point. Wendell Carter Jr’.s 22 points led the Owner Glen Taylor, who also owns the self-preservation mode.

Maori Davenport still spends all of her time in the gym. When she’s not in class at Charles Henderson High School in Troy, Alabama, or answering questions of probing adults at the grocery store, the U-18 Team USA gold medalist is on the court, trying to stay motivated, optimistic for a resolution that may never come. Since late November, Daven- port, a high school basketball star, has been sidelined for her senior season due to a disputed eligibility ruling stemming from a mistaken payment by USA Basketball. The Rutgers commit says she remains hopeful she can play with her high school teammates one last time. But despite national outrage from influential figures through- out the sport, the Alabama High School Athletic Association, the organization responsible for rul- ing on Davenport’s eligibility, is holding firm that she won’t. The AHSAA doubled down on its decision Monday, reiterating that based on AHSAA bylaws and rules, there can be no further action taken by the state associ- ation. “I don’t understand why it is so hard to change it,” Davenport said Monday night. “I feel like it is an easy fix. To be honest, I don’t care whose fault it is. I just want to play again.” Davenport was ruled ineligible for receiving and cashing a $857.20 check from USA Basket- ball for “lost wages” in the sum- mer while helping lead Team USA to a goal medal in the FIBA Americas U-18 Championship in Mexico City. Davenport and her family were unaware that by cashing the check — which USA Basketball offers to all of its players as a stipend for lost wages and to recover costs associated with competing on the team — she violated AHSAA bylaws and rules, until three months later, when USA Basketball contacted her. The organization stated that it made a “clerical error” by not confirming whether the AHSAA allowed such payments before sending the check, as it usually does with state associations to avoid creating any eligibility is- sues for athletes. The payments are permitted by the NCAA and some state athletic organizations. When informed of the error, Davenport’s mother, Tara Daven- port, immediately wrote a check to USA Basketball to repay the money, in addition to paying an extra $40 to send the check back in 72 hours. Tara said she did not question the check initially, be- cause it was from USA Basketball. In her eyes, the national organiza- tion was — and still is — trustwor- thy and reliable. Tara then contacted AHSAA to self-report the check and inform them she had sent it back. Howev- er, the AHSAA ruled Davenport ineligible, sparking an appeal process and, last week, a public outcry following a widely shared article on espnW. ESPN college basketball ana- lyst Jay Bilas was one of the first to rip AHSAA’s ruling, in multiple tweets that included: “Ridiculous.

HONOLULU — Patton Kizzire took longer than expected to reach the PGA Tour, but he figures every step was a learning experi- ence. That includes his first vic- tory, which came at Mayakoba, his six-hole playoff win at the Sony Open last year and even one of the more embarrassing moments last year. He played with Tiger Woods for the first time. Kizzire was so nervous on the opening tee shot at the Honda Classic that he hooked it into a palmetto bush and had to go back to the tee. He had rounds of 74-78 to miss the cut. “Right there at the top,” he said Tuesday. “At the time, I don’t realize how good it is for me, but things that get me so excited I can hardly even perform and what makes me better. That was one of them. As painful as they are, those help.” He had been a fan of Woods for as long as he could remember, and appreciated that he was the big- gest star in golf by some margin. Watching on TV was one thing. Being announced to him on the tee was different. “I’ll feel more comfortable next time I play with him,” Kizzire said. “I had a funny Instagram post after I played with him. It was like a first date with Tiger. I was pretty nervous, but soon I’ll be farting in front of him.” Kapalua changes The Plantation course at Ka- palua might look the same when Xander Schauffele returns next year to defend his title. But it probably won’t play the same. Kapalua is shutting down the course next month for Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw to begin a restoration project that will in- clude a new surface, new greens, bunkers, pretty much everything from tee-to-green. “Every single item on the golf course will be touched,” said Alex Nakajima, general manager for golf and tennis at Kapalua.

His frustrations with the game Animal Crackers By Mike Osbun had been overcome, once again, by his love for the game. North’s thoughtful bidding sequence let Tommy know that his strong club holding was opposite shortness. This devalued his hand and he pulled in the reins at game instead of looking for slam. The bidding: The opening club North East South West lead went to Tommy’s ♥ ♠ jack when East played 1 Pass 1 Pass low. Tommy ruffed his 2♥ Pass 3♣ Pass low club and led the 3♦ Pass 3NT Pass queen of spades to the king and ace.

Tommy was out of Prickly City By Scott Stantis practice, but he was sure he could find a trump coup and live up to his nickname. Tommy cashed the ace and king of clubs before leading a heart to dummy’s ace and ruffing a heart, reducing his trump length to the same as East’s. East had discarded a diamond on the second heart, but he followed to all the clubs, so Tommy was fine. Tommy was beaming when he led a diamond. It didn’t matter when East chose to win his ace. He would have to put dummy on lead with a diamond and the play of the fourth diamond would eventually give Tommy the last two tricks on a trump coup. “Ah,” said Tommy. “It’s good to be back.”
