Respect for Cheney and Kinzinger
I respect Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for standing up and saying how they feel about Trump’s stupidity in the Jan 6 episode. They knew their political careers might be over, but did the right thing. You can’t always be true to your party when these horrible things go on! How can you turn the other cheek like most of them did, so the “Donald” doesn’t get mad at you?
Waukegan bridge needs repairs
Want to get rich? It’s easy. Anyone can do it. Just take a walk across Waukegan’s Grand Ave. bridge over the Amshutz. Miss a step or slip, and fall into this bad guardrail repair. Then sue the City of Waukegan for neglect and public endangerment (since the bridge has been like this for almost 10 years). You can make millions. And anyone can do it. In fact, everyone can do it until it’s fixed.
Missing the real concerns
As I read the TOTC there is hardly any comments etc. on our County. Its Politics etc. Cheney, Trump etc. What about the gas prices, Food cost and Illegals? Cheney says her mission is to destroy Trump, an American. What about the Illegals? Your taxes support them in our schools. Think about that. We pay higher gas prices than five miles down the road. Crime a whole other question. How about working on our Community and yes County? It’s obvious it won’t get fixed from the top down. And the New Inflation Bill or whatever you want to call it, but my pension no help.
Why take the 5th?
From the horse’s mouth nothing truer could have been spoken: If you have nothing to hide, why plead the 5th? How very true.
Beware of political fundraising emails
More Top Picks Best Large Dog Crates
Republicans who give money to the grifters, the emails are being sent out. Uncheck the box so that they don’t recur your credit card or your bank account on your debit. Beware Tammy Faye type grifters are at it again.
They’re all the same
They’re all in the swamp together. They’re all sleeping with each other in each other’s bed. That’s Republican so-called Democrats far left, whatever you guys want to call it. They passed the spending bill and the ones that are going to be paying for it are the working class citizens. Working class citizens. So, folks what I suggest you do is quit your job and go get as much as you can from welfare.
Referendum means more taxes
TOTC reported on the recent news for District 121 IE Referendum etc. Please keep in mind it passed per the paper by 53%. That seems somewhat suspect to me. But regardless keep in mind that means more taxes. Supposedly passed for services for Low Income. Well again think about that Gurnee, Illinois. We live here because why? Low Income housing etc. Don’t think so. Well that maybe what is going to happen. Remember we live in a school district that has a Coordinator that hires from Overseas for students that do not speak English. (Specifically from Spain and Mexico) Mind you Paid. So where are your taxes going and funds? Illegals, not Americans.
Not as much mentioned about Chicago deaths
Did you know that on the same weekend of the Highland Park shooting, 76 people were shot (5 died) in Chicago? Didn’t see that on the news did you?
