As soon as it warms up the Mayor loses control of the city. Just wait until this summer. The convention is going to be a shit show.

It’s official, the cheerleader of the Chicago Left has turned on Mayor Johnson. Funding the Bears stadium is a bridge too far for Ben Joravsky. He doesn’t see how Progressive legislators can possibly support funding the Bears monstrosity on the lake.

With debt financing the total bill for the new Bears stadium is $6.9 billion. Brandon Johnson and Stacey can never say another bad word about Rich Daley, Rahm Emanuel and Lori Lightfoot if this proposal goes through. This makes the parking meter deal look fiscally responsible

What the actual F is this? Starting to see these pop up allover social media. Why do peaceful protesters need instructions for building trash can shields? I have been to dozens of protests and never required a shield.
File this in the can’t make this shit up drawer. South Dakota Governor and leading candidate to be Trump’s VP nominee, Kristi Noem brags about killing the family puppy. That’s right, Governor Noem blew away the family’s 14 month of puppy becuz she couldn’t train it to hunt.

Yes, the Mayor’s flip flop on public monies for sports stadiums is perplexing to his base. The stadium renderings are ugly. It looks like an amusement park on the lake. It is completely inappropriate for the lakefront. It will be the equivalent of a 30 story building.

This is a fascinating poll conducted by Harvard. The war in Gaza ranked 15th out of 16 issues polled. Shows how a small group of activists can drive media coverage without actually moving people’s views.

Lee Bey’s words are powerful. We will let them speak for themselves. “How can a mayor- an allegedly Progressive one, at that - allow a billion dollar football franchise to build what it likes on the lakefront, then charge taxpayers for the privilege. It’s outright ridiculous.”
Lee Bey is right. This stadium is inappropriate for the Lakefront. It is much better suited for the suburbs. Not to mention the Mayor has no business cheerleading this monstrosity. apple.news/AlDZX-lLmSk-I3…

Here’s some more word salad from the Mayor today. I don’t know if it’s Alex Sims or somebody else who is prepping the Mayor for these interviews but they need to get this under control. Who are the young people he is investing in other than rich, white people named McCaskey?

Our inexperienced or incompetent mayor (depending on your viewpoint per Chicago Mag) is desperately reaching out for help and has grabbed the hand of the Chicago Bears. This is an amateurish play to the masses and risks the Mayor’s credibility et al chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/202…
Remember back when Stacey and CTU opposed stadium funding. Now Stacey is attending stadium funding pressers w her Mayor pal.

Breaking News 🚨 At presser, Governor Pritzker points out that three professional sports teams want new stadiums and the Bears plan uses all the available funds in the sports authority.
Breaking News 🚨 Speaker Welch and Gov Pritzker throw cold water on public funding for the Bears stadium. The Speaker says a vote right now would, “fail and fail miserably”. Mayor says they have worked w state on funding. Governor says it never happened. Referendum please

@progressIL The Bears are playing chess here. No way they are putting in $2B to only play 8 games a year and get ticket revenue like they do today. The City gets parking, concessions, etc. The next ploy will be to build in NW Indiana as leverage to get taxes down and end up in AH.
@progressIL When I first heard about this I thought: there has to be more to the story and surely the media is spinning this. But no. No spin at all. 😡 Jesus. And dogs aren’t just farm animals like a cow.
Great. I'm glad that even @GovPritzker doesn't want to burden taxpayers with this project. Billionaires are against "socialism" unless it benefits their pet projects. Taxpayers don't want to pay for a new White Sox stadium, either. @ChicagosMayor, pay attention.
Breaking News 🚨 Governor Pritzker announces he does not currently support public funding for a Bears stadium. He says he is skeptical of the proposal and is not sure it is a top priority for taxpayers. Once again, the Governor is a better mayor than our actual mayor is.
@progressIL I know this is harsh but Trump is Israel's & Russia's useful idiot; Mayor Johnson & the CTU (if he doesn't back down) areThe Bear's.
Hey, @stacydavisgates what changed?
Several Chicago alderperson and other notables in the room for the Chicago Bears stadium presentation: Walter Burnett, Lamont Robinson, Pat Dowell, Kam Buckner. Stacy Davis Gates, Chicago Teachers Union president, is also here #twill
@progressIL He is too stupid to see that he is being used. He is the obsticle to getting it done amd will be the sole person blamed when it is ultimately built in Arlington Heights.
@progressIL Are you telling us Mayor Jitters is not telling the truth?
@progressIL Doesn’t even send his kids to their neighborhood schools. Do as I say, not as I do…..
@progressIL They should’ve went to Arlington Heights
@progressIL @ChiLastRespondr @btpanko @rothschild48154 Wait til Ben sees the similarities between Daley selling off the parking meters to plug a hole in the budget in his second to last year and Brandon borrowing $1.25 B at $81M a year in his second year to...what will be...keeping city afloat in next three. (Homeless Shmomeless)
@progressIL True and with Pritzker as Gov. this state has only grown stronger and especially the Chicagoland area.
@progressIL I guess they’ll pray over the CTA mess now looking for a miracle. Won’t happen.
@chicasde18 @progressIL It really doesn’t, at least not for me and the generalization is pretty insulting tbh
@progressIL Truth be told though, their brand of progressivism and commitment to Brandon stops and ends with bike lanes and mass transit.
@progressIL x.com/emikugler/stat…
@MaryAnnAhernNBC "Racist", only CTU know the word for argument... But CTU didn't support black teachers by the way
@progressIL Make no mistake, the Gov tells these guys how to vote. He is taking care of Mayor BJ and the CTU. Showing them who is running the (Shit)show.
@progressIL I love when @GovPritzker ruffles Branjo's feathers. I am surprised he doesn't do it more often.
@progressIL The Gov knows that the Mayor is a liability. He is going to start to expose him even more and will clean up parts of the city before the DNC as was done in San Fran.
@JimmDispensa @progressIL Thank you very much!!! I will pass this on
