@shauncooley Comparing disasters is never good, but it's not even close to comparable. Chicago's fire left 100,000 homeless, about 1/3 of the population at the time.

@CTULocal1 Can you explain why busses are being provided for this event, yet my daughter has had no bus to get to/from school for the past two years? @Parents4Buses

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

@SarahisCensored $700 cash is the most federal disaster assistance can provide, per the Stafford Act. Perhaps you should lobby Congress to change that, because Biden/Harris can't legally do that.

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

I strongly support both unions and teachers, but it's clear that @CTULocal1 is a simply a political organization that only focuses on political power at the expense of our children.

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

@ChicagosMayor Make it make sense Brandon. Why don't your focus on integrating neighborhoods? Because that is the only way to desegregate neighborhood schools.

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

@ChicagosMayor Maybe you should go back to statistics class. The selective enrollment schools are literally "more integrated" based on the infograph you just posted.

@OGFC3 I guess the only question now is if 'Fred Collins works for @JimmyPatronis or if it's @JimmyPatronis himself. Imagine a state's CFO picking this hill to die on... 🤡

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

@OGFC3 @JimmyPatronis Have your employees fighting your twitter battles for you now? 🤡

@cta: every weekday morning, without fail, there is a 30 minute gap without bus service on the 8 bus at UIC-Halsted northbound between 7:30-8 AM. Can you look into this? Thx

@YankGeordie @ariksavage @CPD1617Scanner If you think Little Rock is any safer than Chicago, you are very out of touch

@StaceyBacaABC7 Congrats Stacey!

@Fire_Alerts911 Looks big on radar

@ChiPhotoGuy My guess is different species. Also could be partially caused by urban heat island in the suburban area. Would keep night lows slightly warmer than the forest and could cause a delay in color change. Doubt it would be that pronounced though

@RepLarryBucshon You'd think a genius like Dr. Larry Bucshon would understand the principals of supply and demand.

@CDCgov 👋 professional science communicator here. I get modeling and confidence intervals, but if you want to establish confidence with the general public that you know what you are doing, tweeting a range of 25K-162K cases without additional context is not the way to do it

@ChicagoParks @ABC7Chicago @MaggieDaleyPark Can I 'book' some time for my kids to play at their neighborhood playground that has been closed for the last 10 months? I'm all about COVID precautions, but schools are open again... @chicagosmayor @chicago

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

Can anyone at @chicagosmayor's office or @ChicagoParks answer why outdoor playgrounds are still closed? It's puzzling considering many have indoor spaces that have reopened. Not to mention bars....

[Troy Christensen @Warmsector]

@chicagosmayor Now that we know this is disease is primarily spread through the air and indoor spaces are slowly reopening, why are outdoor @ChicagoParks playgrounds still closed?
