I’m calling about Father Michael Pfleger calling out Walmart for closing their stores because they’re losing tens of millions of dollars. Pfleger says stop blaming the theft for the reason that the stores are closing. The truth is never an insult. Why are there no Black business millionaires like the Jackson family or the Higginbottoms investing in stores in the African American neighborhoods? I think we know the reason.

To YCM from Orland Park, Willie Wilson would not be dumb enough to invest his money in those neighborhoods. He didn’t become a wealthy businessman by being stupid. We all know the reason why all these stores fail and go out of business but everyone is afraid to talk about it. Don’t worry, the Democrats will figure out a way to waste more money trying to figure it out through wasted studies and investigations. Wake up people!

Over 45 Cook County employees are suspected of defrauding the federal Paycheck Protection Program, Some of them have resigned or were fired. The issue is why weren’t these people prosecuted for fraud. I know Kim Foxx would not prosecute fellow county employees, but this is a federal crime.

OK, our former president sues his past fixer lawyer for $500 million; is his coffers from his supporters getting low? And it amazes many folks that when donating to his cause is simply donations going to offset his legal bills. Imagine that.

To those unaware of how the law and court system works, information and evidence regarding an active court case is secure and not for public publication. Also, doofus Jim Jordan has no jurisdiction over the state of New York’s court and legal system. He should go back and revisit his sexual abuse scandal days as a coach and member of the Ohio State wrestling program.

To Bill of Plainfield in response to his comments regarding climate change and how it takes eons and not decades. Wow, who knew? And aren’t you still wondering why Columbus didn’t fall off the edge. Curious.
