No justification, no authorization from Congress, and no clear objective.

But none of that matters to Donald Trump — and apparently neither do the safety and lives of American service members.

NEW: CPS is projecting a $529 million deficit next year, and among multiple scenarios to close that gap, it has floated hundreds of potential layoffs of staff who work inside of schools:

Pedro could respond by canceling the last offer made to ctu and replace it with a wage freeze in order to afford the $175m.

The saga that ⁦@ChicagosMayor⁩ and his lame duck school board created is far, far from over!

What is over is ⁦@ChicagosMayor⁩’s ability to lead this city any longer

[Janice K. Jackson @janicejackson]

The CBOE and Mayor Johnson’s decision is downright disgraceful. The entire city is now bearing witness to this scheme as it unfolds. We will hold you accountable. Chicago is better than this! Our kids deserve better!

In the rush to adjourn after firing Chicago Public Schools CEO Pedro Martinez, the school board forgot to spell out the terms & resumed the meeting.

Martinez was dismissed without cause. He will remain on the job for 6 months & receive 20 weeks of severance. He makes $340,000.

We are deeply concerned about the potential employment action against CPS CEO Pedro Martinez and hope that the board leadership will delay this discussion until the full board can participate in January.

Beside the fact the vast majority of Chicago residents, parents & CPS Principals are opposed to firing CPS CEO Pedro Martinez for refusing to take out a dreadful $300 million payday loan, scheduling this important meeting during Shabbat is wrong. It needs to be rescheduled.

[Jesse Ruiz @JesseRuizEsq]

BTW, having been a @ChiPubSchools board member who was appointed Interim CEO in 2015, that was AFTER the then CEO stepped down. There were NEVER two people with CEO authority at the same time, IL school code does not provide for that.

We hrd from a former CEO @janicejackson , a nonprofit that supports principals across Chicago @TheFundChicago’s, from concerned parents, through @KidsFirstChi, and from local and State Officials like @50thWardChicago and a co-author of ESB @RepKamBuckner what else will it take?

@mmccabe Cc @chicagodems4edu has a list I believe also I think per board rules it’s a simple majority: https://t.co/56oOL16xjB
