Naperville mom. progressive.

@SteveP468 @DuPageCountyGOP You’ll have to forgive Kevin Coyne, Steve. His only form of political action is being butt hurt about Republicans losing DuPage Co. He has no sane Republicans left to endorse his crazy candidates.

@Austin__Berg @uscensusbureau Not all areas of the state are losing people. Places with good schools & safe communities are & good jobs are growing - suburbs & some city areas. Downstate is bleeding people. So is south side of city. Fix city pensions & support public education across state.

@nacho32 @SafeSuburbsUSA Naperville is run by Republicans at the moment. Try again.

@SafeSuburbsUSA Glad you think people being casual with their guns is a problem. Now let’s talk about why you think what you posted is a problem but you’ve never mentioned that this pic is a problem. Hint: they’re both a problem. But if you only think one is, then racism is another problem.

@Quietmum If you are a solid D voter, this is them trying to muddy Dem primaries. If you are a sometimes D sometimes R primary voter, it may be a legit attempt to dram more moderate Rs into running in their primary.

@Quietmum Republican State Rep. Chair of Will County Republicans. Funny they are stealing the “big tent” line.

@SafeSuburbsUSA SAT logic quiz!

Teachers are to AFT & NEA as cops are to…

Kevin Coyne answers: “proud boys. & oath keepers”

Come on man. Do better.

@SafeSuburbsUSA “States rights” on this has effectively turned into “whole cloth ban” for millions of women in the last few years. If Republican campaigns aren’t opposed to abortions, they’re doing a damn good job hiding it.

@hartwillco @Kellywtp @SafeSuburbsUSA The young ones, especially. The ones who want the baby but there’s something devastatingly wrong with it - that’s not enough time either. Come on. You’ve got to know this doesn’t make sense.

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

@hartwillco @Kellywtp @SafeSuburbsUSA The current Speaker of the House wants no abortions after six weeks w/ criminal penalties for doctors who perform abortions when there’s a heartbeat. You’re a woman. You know women who’ve had abortions. We all do. Does make that sense to you? Most don’t know they’re pregnant.

@BurnFBDown @WillClownCar @SafeSuburbsUSA “Out on bond” means he PAID BAIL. Pre SAFE-T Act. Great example of how cash bail doesn’t keep criminals off the streets. Now under Safe-T Act judges can keep dangerous criminals in jail - they CANT pay their way out.

@crampell A lot of folks saying they’re preparing to flee. I’m building the resistance. Stay & fight with me. ✊

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

@APuppers80 @SafeSuburbsUSA Then I guess the “right” made the man who stabbed & killed the Palestinian child in Plainfield hate him? OR, how about we not politicize murder & brutal slayings of children?

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

@SafeSuburbsUSA Referendum should be used in only incredibly rare situations, as dictated by law. We elect people to make decisions. If you start the “referendum for everything” BS it’s a different - & chaotic - form of government. Don’t like the decisions electeds make? Vote differently.

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

Oof Chicago city council out here looking like will county board. Calling special meetings, not being able to count, voting on things that don’t change what they want to change. What’s wrong with elected officials these days? Do the work, not the show.

[Ald. Raymond Lopez @RaymondALopez]

Thank you all to those who stood for democracy!

@BravoTitan9 @GiwedinAnangKwe I was raised by my dad. He loved women. Dated them. Talked about them. Had them on TV constantly. Had pictures of them. Took me to meet them.

I still ended up liking boys. Go figure. It’s almost like my main parent demonstrating their sexual preference didn’t change mine.

@johnnyc129 @JaymalGreen @CPD1617Scanner Profits made by American citizens. Jobs created for American citizens. Wages paid to American citizens. You may not like their business but you’re quantifiably incorrect that the money is being invested in illegal immigrants. It’s quite literally going into American pockets.

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

@Lanceholt9137 @JaymalGreen First: most people do not work 11 hours day so you’d have to adjust your annual salary calculation for that. But, it’s prolly not 1 staff per child so your math is off anyway. I think cost is high but you’ve helped underscore my point: the original post is not a good analysis.

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

@Lanceholt9137 @JaymalGreen Look closely. It’s for 24 hours. 2 people for 24 hours.

[Emily Addison @EmilyAddison75]

@jay_j_jace @JaymalGreen Yup exactly.
