@BlockClubCHI Why is block club providing this group of crybabies a platform

Logan Square renters are fighting to buy their building in a new test of tenant rights law. blockclubchi.co/4tpkrHW

@BrianCostin @JBPritzker @j_alexgough Doesn't jb pay his staff at least in part out of his own pocket? This guy slipped and said the truth, that they are answerable to the king of Illinois, not the taxpayers

Today, @JBPritzker’s comms director @j_alexgough said I shouldn’t weigh in on state finances. That’s insulting to every taxpayer funding this state. I'm not going to be quiet. Why is Pritzker the worst governor in America? I’ll go first 👇 💰Worst Overall Tax Burden - @wallethub 📉Worst Bond Rating - @FitchRatings, @SPGlobalRatings, @Moodys 🫣Worst Fiscal Transparency - @truthinacct 🏡Worst Property Taxes - @TaxFoundation 🚔Worst Public Corruption - @thisisUIC 🏧Worst Pension Debt -@ReasonFdn

@David_J_Bier I don't hope for violence on anyone but maybe someone you know and love being hurt or killed by an illegal alien is what you need to wake the fuck up you absolute degenerate

"Otherwise inadmissible" is what Bill Melugin calls legal immigrants. Literally everyone is "otherwise inadmissible" until they qualify for entry. Dystopian abuse of the language like "legalized illegals." Deregulating an overly restrictive legal system is GOOD.

@David_J_Bier @BillMelugin_ Do you have some kind of punishment or humiliation fetish bc I'm thinking that must be the only reason you keep dishing retarded takes to people that don't and never will buy your bullshit grift

@BillMelugin_ x.com/David_J_Bier/s…

The CBP One app was originally created to streamline trucking cargo for vehicles crossing the border. The Biden admin altered it to allow 50,000-60,000 otherwise inadmissible aliens from around the globe to enter the U.S. every single month for two years straight.

@GPIngersoll Crazy eyes moron who probably didn't have shit to say about the anti Semitic demonstrations at ucla during the entire Biden admin

A quote from a university professor’s email about Bari Weiss giving a talk: “I think it is disappointing that we are platforming a woman who has helped drive the narrative that universities are not places of academic freedom” This is the intellectual capacity of the people you pay top dollar to educate and credential your kids.

@Noumenon72 @arctotherium42 You're right they shouldn't have printed the spies who lie fake debunking That's what you're talking about right?

@arctotherium42 I did kind of buy the rationale that you shouldn't just let go viral whatever claim comes out right before the election with dubious sourcing.

I forgot just how insane the NYP Hunter Biden laptop story censorship was; it wasn't just suppressed you couldn't even send DMs about it on Facebook and the New York Post itself was banned from Twitter for posting a link to their own, true story.

@Libs_OfChicago @BenBradleyTV Good thing you're safe to dabble in puddle deep political coverage from the safety of your whiter more affluent suburb

A large portion of Napervilles population are ppl who left Chicago for a better life. The issue is many of them brought their nonsense with them which will ultimately drag Naperville into a hole.

Small town near Big Lake north of Missoula, MT While eating dinner Jane and her husband came in for dinner. They have a ranch had a ranch nearby. The owner came out of the kitchen not to greet but tell her to leave…now Jane responded “I don’t think you know who I am”, the owner replied he does and demanded she leave and not come back. I was there

My favorite Jane Fonda story: "In 2005, Michael A. Smith, a U.S. Navy veteran, was arrested for disorderly conduct in Kansas City, Missouri, after he spat chewing tobacco in Fonda's face during a book-signing event for her autobiography, My Life So Far. He told reporters that he "considered it a debt of honor", adding "she spit in our faces for 37 years. It was absolutely worth it. There are a lot of veterans who would love to do what I did."

@DailyTaxMemes I refuse to believe this... but I do sadly believe it. fa is dangerously incompetent

Woman who questioned our 2k tax prep fee has an advisor paid 30k annually and said advisor doesn’t understand why 100k in CGD from her basic bitch Franklin Templeton active managed mutual funds generated a bunch of unforeseen taxes

@jess_ann_pin @Pat_Stedman You're the female version of a white knight simp

@Pat_Stedman Dude what? Men don’t know how long you made other women wait. How long I have made men wait has no correlation with whether we ended up in a relationship. None at all If men want to wait they should make women wait

The issue is more the sense of double standards. Most guys get resentful when a girl that clearly likes them wants to hold off on sex, because they presume she didn't make other guys wait. This is especially the case with older women who are most angling for commitment. It feels like bad faith / manipulation to guys and they opt out of considering her for something more serious, in large part defensively because they feel she views them as a beta / will use sex to control them later Women have a hard time understanding this response because most of them will actually sleep with a guy they like less overall faster if he's hot enough and it's "right place right time". They know he has no future so they don't delay; the guy they want more seriously meanwhile they make wait because they "don't want to ruin it" and want him to invest more This dual strategy being revealed puts women in a bind, because the natural courtship process of delay and making the guy invest to have sex has now been undermined by her (and other women's) willingness in other scenarios to have sex opportunistically. They have inadvertently penalized the guys they want more, and these guys aren't having it The result is that women who don't want to be promiscuous anymore (and even to a large extent women who never were, because their chastity isn't believed) now lose investment from desirable men - only the desperate ones will wait. If these women try to counter this by putting out fast however these guys often devalue them anyway - it is the male sexual instinct to invest little in easy women This breakdown in trust has led to the destruction of polarity itself, and it is one of the major factors contributing to the overall collapse in the dating market. Exceptional personality chemistry is having to pull more and more weight to make anyone commit to anyone these days - everything else is commoditized So what I'd say to women who want to wait until commitment - first do not expect him to not see other women while you hold off, and second make sure you are bringing something to the table that is distinct and valuable to him in a woman besides sex. The problem is many women who want to hold off do not do this, they think sex with them is the prize, and unfortunately that is the furthest thing from the truth in 2026

@BlockClubCHI Maybe for every sad deportation story block club runs they could run a story on someone victimized by an illegal alien? Shit I'd settle for a 5 to 1 ratio

A student who inspired the city with runs through every neighborhood is being forced to leave the U.S. blockclubchi.co/4bWBNER

@NanoBaiter @DelhiPolice You are awesome for this

8/ @DelhiPolice people like Kabir are ruining lives! DM me for more evidence. Please step up and protect innocent people. If you want to see more investigations like this one consider following my account and leaving a like. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

1/ Meet Kabir Singh, an Indian scammer who impersonates Apple support and then rips off innocent vulnerable people. He tried to scam me......but instead of paying him money, I hacked into his laptop and redeemed $10,000 worth of giftcards live on webcam!

@NickKristof @benryanwriter @TomVargheseJr This might be the point where you recognize your industry committed economic suicide bc you just couldn't stop lying

@benryanwriter @TomVargheseJr No, i asked if she ever went to news websites, and she looked baffled. I asked her how she got news, and she said friends told her, or sometimes celebrities posted news on Instagram. I tried to figure out her politics, but she didn't seem to have any.

@s_bozzy @rank67503 @cbschicago Do you actually think you need to have the entire purchase price up front? Jfc

@rank67503 @cbschicago That’s the point….🤦‍♂️ They don’t have the money, otherwise they could just go purchase. They literally are complaining about the cost of housing. If able to pool $3.4m for an apartment building, than all of these folks would have been able to by a place already anyways

Tenants of an apartment building in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood spoke out against their landlord Sunday, days after the property was put up for sale. cbsnews.com/chicago/news/t…

@BrandiTrueBlue @kim_chee27 @BringelsonE @therealbriaklei Adjudicated rapist lol Tds

@kim_chee27 @BringelsonE @therealbriaklei They haven't been found guilty of anything. You support the adjudicated rapist in the white house, which makes sense that you would support Bailey. He does, too.

Shut TF up. It's about the principle that Illinoisans get nickle-and-dimed to death on every freaking thing. And if you buy a significant amount of paint, like say 18 gallons to paint your house, it's nearly $18 (95 cents per can). And what if one's livelihood is painting? This state has gone to shit bc of flippant attitudes like yours.

@BrandiTrueBlue @kim_chee27 @benjaminuover The irony of saying this when it's the bankrupt entity imposing the tax... well I'm totally sure that irony is lost on you

@kim_chee27 @benjaminuover My God - you'll probably have to file for bankruptcy after paying that extra 45 cents.

Paint tax started January 2026 for Illinoisans, courtesy of Fatso, FYI.

@dear_bryan30728 @libsoftiktok @jacksonpCTU look it's you!

LMAO 🤣. No kings protester completely LOSES IT and STORMS AWAY when the interviewer points out that nobody voted for Kamala and she was installed as the nominee

Illinois has the most state pension debt in America — by a wide margin. How bad is it? IL Pension Debt: $145.49B The bottom 41 states combined: $145.77B IL population: ~12.7M Bottom 41 states: ~180M And Pritzker and his allies in Springfield are considering pension sweeteners that could add $76B+ more in costs for Illinois taxpayers. This is not sustainable. This is a crisis.

@adamwren @RahmEmanuel Was writing this difficult since you were on your knees the whole time?

How @RahmEmanuel eats a salad. politico.com/news/magazine/…

@allenanalysis Did he have anything to say about the way that Loyola student was treated by the illegal alien that MURDERED her?

Charles Barkley on CBS tonight: “The way some of these immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace. What we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants is really unfortunate and really sad.” Charles Barkley is not a politician. Not an activist. Not a Democrat. He is one of the most beloved sports figures in American history saying this on national television.
