@dfranco3211 @Chicago_Goofies And here you are continuing to amplify it…missing the irony there?

At yesterday’s City Council meeting, I was proud to commemorate May as Asian American, Native Hawaiian, & Pacific Islander Heritage Month.

Especially great to celebrate the work of 34th Ward neighbor @VietFive!

Senator Dick Durbin calls for Ricardo’s release, says: “Cases like Ricardo’s are one of the many reasons why Senate Democrats continue to fight to rein in lawless, rogue ICE agents, including by making sure federal agents follow the same standards of law as state police (do)”

Be sure to pay attention to the alders who voted no on banning Chicago police officers from actively participating in extremist and anti-government groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers.

Barry Butler just casually drops the most breathtaking Chicago images known to man every week. Legend.

These “conservatives” went from bashing welfare to providing welfare for traitors. That’s Trumpers for you. No actual values, no patriotism, just lemmings who repeatedly fall for an apex con artist.

Mayor Brandon Johnson is on the verge of losing more control over CTA. Before that happens, he’s making a last-minute if ill-defined push to name a permanent CTA leader. Our story with @talia_soglin

NEWS: A federal judge has ordered Liliana to be released. The son’s habeas case is ongoing. Good news for the family, although they remain separated.
