They can’t get out of their own way.

Proud to be a Chicago area resident!

Dishonorable Mike Johnson the biggest liar this side of Trump.

Proud to be a Chicago area resident in light of the resistance to state terrorism perpetrated by ICE & CPB. ✊

He’s insane.

I used to be against Medicare for all, but as you say, the events of the past year or so prove beyond a doubt we need to have universal health insurance in the US. I’d add dental care right up front as well.

If it ends up like ‘08 (which it just might) EVERYONE will be screwed. As I mentioned in another comment why not just bring back hugely risky interest only mortgages??? That’ll do it! 😉

Tommy Tubesteak.

One of the few things on which I’d ever agree with him. And I’ve been paying attention since I first encountered his obnoxious persona in the early 80’s.

So now we’re insane?

Assume it was coming from Lake Michigan. As a lakeshore resident I couldn’t be happier!

Did anyone see that a couple days ago Pritzker threatened to leave the governors’ association if it didn’t condemn the national guard invasion?

Undoubtedly part of our punishment for being a Democratic city.

Those rich folks probably don’t use PP but it is an interesting thought.

Argentina Vs. Puerto Rico Soccer Match Moved From Chicago To Florida Amid ICE Fears Soccer fans who planned to catch the match with Lionel Messi at Soldier Field this weekend are out of luck. The change comes as Chicago has faced a surge in immigration enforcement activity.

It also makes me wonder how successful the “pay cut” will be if they really want/need to attract workers. I’d think at some point the market will take over.

So far it appears that’s what Chicago & vicinity is doing! 👍

And if you didn’t see it coming you were stupid or blind or both.

Virtually in my back yard…

Go ahead and do that. If you think you’ve seen violence before, you’ll see it like you’ve never seen it before.

If they were anything like the current congressional minority leadership they wouldn’t have any idea what to do with that power.
