IL GOP talking about “keeping communities safe” and then…selling ICE merch.

Hope they’re all getting primaried.

Announcements like these make me miss Twitter 🙄

Spooky “Truth. Always. Wins.” graphic in the middle of the “Chicago Politics” section of the 45th Ward alder’s newsletter. Neighborhood news with a sprinkle of whiny drama. 🙄

Vallas has opened ~12 militarized charter schools (privately operated/publicly funded) nationally & cozied up Sarah Huckabee Sanders for AR Military & First Responders Academy. Wonder what she’s saying about a charter school she supported in her state being forced to close after two years?

Makes me think back to this troubling Indeed review from an Arkansas Military and First Responders Academy employee. Seems like there may have been deeper issues that forced Vallas’ military charter to dissolve after losing its non-profit status than just a “clerical and paperwork issue ”.

Disturbing doomsday SAT test prep ad in my feed. “Maximize the time they have left” Also, whose living room is this guy in?

It kills me that Chi Public Schools created an anxious looking little mascot for high-stakes selective enrollment elementary school placement results. Ugh.

And how much will Jim Gardiner cost Chicago tax payers?

Bets on when he’s turning himself in?

Show or tell me something that makes you happy!

I’ll start. Here’s our dog looking very thrilled to be carrying around a bone. She will carry a bone around for several hours and continuously re-bury it around the house before deciding to eat it.

Are there any Gardiner campaign donors who care how he’s spending contributions? As of Q4 2024, he’s sitting on ~$300K and it does not look like funding has slowed over time. illinoissunshine.org/committees/3...

Social media acquaintances, who give the vibe that they voted for DT, have been posting this a lot lately. lol

Right on @npeaction.bsky.social!

“When you defend public education, you defend American freedom. You defend tolerance. You defend an America where children learn that those who look, worship, vote, or speak differently than their families are not the enemy but a treasured part of the community…”

Response from Quigley (IL-5) re: email asking him to not vote for Rahm for DNC chair. 🤨

Rahm was the only one the survey asked this question about:

🚩 New political survey

Maybe DNC got the message Rahm shouldn’t chair, BUT #Senate26 is NOT a consolation prize.

REPEAT: No Rahm anywhere, ever!!

p.s. @julianastratton.bsky.social all the way!!

It’s time Illinois stops the archaic, expensive, and harmful requirement that an individual must publicize their name change in a newspaper. Ask your state senator to support HB 5164: shorturl.at/RuQxi 🏳️‍⚧️ #EqualityIL

Public schools are the heartbeat of democracy and at every turn Rahm Emanuel, as mayor of Chicago, used his power and privilege to destroy them. I’ve got the receipts (protest signs) to show he shouldnt lead the DNC. thehill.com/homenews/cam...
