@LauraKev1truth@FrankCalabrese Giannoulias is the Secretary of State. An entire state and he has NEVER publicly stated he is running for Chicago mayor, but people are so thirsty to jumpstart this mayoral race that it has become the norm to put people’s names out for reaction…
@LauraKev1truth@MaryAnnAhernNBC Reading is fundamental! Yusef Jackson told Stratton that he and his dad endorsed her! They also endorsed others! Period…
@MaryAnnAhernNBC@JBPritzker@nbcchicago Interesting that last year when JB hadn’t donated to Stratton’s campaign, people were saying he’d dumped her. He’d put her out there and left her high and dry! NOW, however as he IS supporting her fully, people are bitching and questioning his tactics!!!
Another $250K in support of Robin Kelly from the political arm of Indian American Impact, which has endorsed Raja Krishnamoorthi in the #ILSen race. The group has now spent $1 million on the race — $500K for Kelly, $250K for Raja and $250K against Juliana Stratton. #twill
We spoke w/almost a dozen former Krishnamoorthi staffers who described a nearly round-the-clock fundraising operation, working 80 or 100 hours a week, in which some workers burned out after only a few months.
My latest for @chicagotribune w/@PetrellaReports and @ad_quig
Been busy lately!
I’m always so grateful for the chance to meet and talk to so many Illinoisans, and this weekend was no exception. Onward to March 17!
@allymutnick So, was there really an expectation that a Governor would be neutral and not support his Lt. Governor for higher office. I imagine it’s like members of the CBC not supporting one of their CBC members for higher office!!!
@FrankCalabrese Juliana served one term in the House but seven years as Lt. Governor, JB Pritzker chose her to be his running mate! We won’t let these liars try to steal Illinois…
Big #ILSEN development here >>
The Impact Fund, a group that is backing Rep Raja Krishnamoorthi, is spending $$ to boost Rep Robin Kelly in the Dem primary
This appears to be a play to siphon votes from LG Juliana Stratton, who is the biggest threat to Raja in 3/17 primary
@Nettexan@ChrisCillizza@benshapiro Well then at least she has a winning strategy unlike that fellow running around ducking from a debate he agreed to do…
Rumors are swirling throughout Chicago the CTU will allow protesters use of its union hall as a hub for demonstrators to mobilize during the DNC.
This means the CORE caucus will be aiding groups which will be registering rage and hurling anti-police invective at CPD during protests.
@IsIllinois I think what he’s saying is Black people are not stupid enough to vote against their best interests for Trump, but if any do vote for Trump they probably “just turned Black” a few years ago!!!
@fireguy1447@MaryAnnAhernNBC@GovPritzker Most people with money are still right here in Chicago adding zeros to their fat bank accounts! And even the ones who have moved out of the city still have considerable investments here, so much for this lawless dumpster that keeps making them money!!!
Ingraham: Why not debate Kamala Harris?
Trump: Because everyone already knows everything
Ingraham: They’re saying you’re afraid of debating her
Trump: I’m leading in the polls
