Great reporting here from @jimdaleywrites, just in time for today’s City Council meeting. ShotSpotter simply doesn’t work—don’t be swayed by right-wing voices who want to spend big to bring it back. southsideweekly.com/shotspotter-ro…

NEW: Chicago spent $129M on overtime for members of the Chicago Police Department during the first 6 months of 2024 — nearly 30% more than the City Council set aside for CPD overtime in the city’s 2024 budget, I report with @JaredRutecki for @WTTW News. news.wttw.com/2024/09/30/chi…

BREAKING: @CCJLoyola reports on #Illinois’ Pretrial Fairness Act, which eliminated cash bail a year ago. Among findings, the percent of defendants detained at initial court hearings plummeted (see below), jail populations shrunk and crime didn't surge. pfa-1yr.loyolaccj.org

Can’t think of anyone less qualified to “moderate” this forum than Gardiner—the guy who spends thousands of public tax dollars on private religious schools, and who welcomed a new public charter school to his ward last year.

If an alder said this about Israelis and Isr soldiers after HZ or another group/country attacked thousands of them at a time and blew up their devices while out and about with their families, killing at least 2 kids and injuring many more civilians, many would demand they resign

Mariah Woelfel@MariahWoelfel

Though Chicago @AldReilly refused to explain his pager tweet to WBEZ, in a separate post he wrote “Karma’s a b*tch” in response to whether he agreed with Israel’s attack that killed dozens, including healthcare workers and children.

A Chicago alderman tweets a... joke?... about attacks that killed dozens, including a 10-year-old girl, and wounded thousands. The City Council has been extremely vocal condemning antisemitism. What should we call the contents of this tweet?
