I voted for Jerry Joyce.
Bill Daley will be the next mayor, because we live in a 'fixed' City.
Bill Daley, Gery Chico. Toni Preckwinkle and Susan Mendosa are oligarchs. They are the ruling class in this Banana Republic.
Illinois, Cook County and Chicago are all rigged by the monied interests and there is not a damn thing my vote can do about it.
The GOP - formerly a political party for the privileged progressive few became nothing more than a name a few decades back under Illinois Governor Jim Edgar. Since then, The Illinois, Cook County and City of Chicago GOP has been an irrelevancy.
ILLINOIS GOP Clowns like Senator Mark Kirk stooge'd for the Daley family and helped shore-up its Russian investment empire that the Chicago media ignores.
Senator Mark Kirk appointed Efimova chair of the Eastern European Advisory Board. Three years later, she was appointed vice president (Midwest) of the U.S.-Russia Chamber of Commerce. It’s a 501(c) nonprofit established in 2009 to “promote business between Russia and the United States of America.”Through her work with Kirk, Bob Dold (Dist. 10, R-IL) asked her to help with his outreach to the Russian-speaking community for his 2012 campaign. She’s “participated in numerous interviews and promotions…and on mailers that were sent to every Russian-speaking household.” She’s worked on his last three campaigns.
Efimova was one of 70 prominent Chicagoans on the committee to host the 2012 NATO Summit in Chicago. The hosting committee was headed by Mayor Rahm Emmanuel’s wife, Amy Rule. That same year, Rahm sent a delegation of the World Business Chicago and CSI on a trade mission to Russia to “ establish relationships with Russian companies and spur new business development opportunities.”
Fred Eychaner's Terry Cosgrove and Planned Parenthood control erstwhile Catholic Democrat State Senators and Representatives like Bill Cunningham, Kelly Burke and Fran Hurley with such force that all common sense anti-abortion statutes will be eliminated from Illinois law.
In Chicago, labor caved to the oligarchs when the pipe-trades wildly endorsed Rahm Emanuel for his disastrous second term and doubled down with Governor JB Pritzker.
I am not cynical. Just reporting.
Vote. Believe.
The fact of the matter is this. Bill Daley will be Mayor. Abortion will rule Illinois, just like legal weed.
We can move elsewhere. We can hunker down and take it.
OR we can step away from the all you can can eat buffet of bullshit put out by the oligarchs' media stooges and start to listen to good people like
- Jerry Joyce - Get him in the Run Off
- Jeanne Ives - Help fight two evil pieces of legislation :HB 40 & SB 1407 i
- Rev. Corey Brooks - Demand that genuine voices of the African American Community get equal time against grifters and clowns like Blonde Jesus Pfleger and Jesse Jackson.
I plan to demand a town hall in the very Catholic parishes of each self-claimed Catholic Illinois legislator to ask why, Fran Hurley, Kelly Burke and Billy Cunningham offer fealty to Personal PAC Illinois that trumps Catholic doctrine on abortion and why their pastors aid and abet their hypocrisies. Just to keep them honest, or least outed in public. Hell, I admit my many manifold personal and public sins.
It is a small thing and the least that I can do; that and cast my vote upon the waters.
Go for it, Pat. Speak truth to power!
