This is the most accurate description of @ChicagosMayor we've seen yet. "Loves the limelight but hates accountability." "Mayor Failure."
This is the most accurate description of @ChicagosMayor we've seen yet. "Loves the limelight but hates accountability." "Mayor Failure."
"He just ran." Another immaculate example of how @ChicagosMayor is ruinously unprepared for office. Johnson isn't at the CTU anymore, where he can simply retreat to the world of Narnia. As mayor, he owes the public answers. Video: @DariusJohnsonTV.
The dam bursts: A Trustee at the CTU pension fund has asked for an outside probe over threats against her and mismanagement of teacher pensions. CORE is trying to its hands on teacher pensions. Does anyone @CTULocal1 have anything to say about this? secondcityteachers.substack.com/p/chicago-teac…
A morning post on mental health. Any comment, @ChicagosMayor, on the arrest of the man suspected of murdering Ofc. Luis Huesca?

Jack Lucey examines @ChicagosMayor's grating habit of blaming others for his own failures. Of late, Johnson is hysterically shifting the blame for the failure of BCH on Chicago's "menacing" Right-wing. chicagocontrarian.com/blog/chicago-n…
Sans masks and keffiyehs, here are the faces of "the revolution." Expect to see more than a few of these violent agitators descend on Chicago for the DNC.

Good catch. Looks to us as if Calvello thought this would slip under the radar.

Anyone else notice how DSA aldermen — @Andrefor40th, @CDRosa, @RossanaFor33, @DanielLaSpata, and @ByronSigcho — have been silent on the capture of Ofc. Luis Huesca's killer?
@ChicagoContrar1 And just in case something happens while in custody, we're ready.
The look on your face when you realize fatally shooting a Chicago Police Officer was colossal boo-boo.
A new photo of Xavier Tate taken immediately after his arrest has emerged.
With a cop killer now in custody, this website would like to both praise and thank the Chicago Police Department's Fugitive Apprehension Unit and the U.S. Marshal's Fugitive Task Force for their impeccable work. We cannot thank these ladies and gentlemen enough.
We may frame this one.
You will never admit it, alderman, but Brandon Johnson's term thus far has been a slow-motion car wreck.

Fine. Lower it, Mr. Vasquez. Lower the speed limit from 30 to 25. And when enforcement begins, you'll start hyperventilating about "racist" traffic stops.

Quick note that @ToniPreckwinkle, a major influence on Cook County's criminal justice system during her 14 years as board prez (she gave us @KimFoxx, for ex.) has said NOTHING about Ofc. Huesca's murder or the capture of his killer. Dead silence for two weeks. She is horrible.
CPD says Xavier L. Tate, 22, is charged with first degree murder, aggravated vehicular hijacking with a firearm, and possession of a stolen firearm. He is set to appear in court tomorrow for a detention hearing.
This has to be one of the more bizarre moments ever seen from a Chicago mayor. A boilerplate answer would have sufficed. Instead, he runs from reporters asking basic questions and basically giving him a chance to display some grace and support. Instead, he literally runs away.…
