Johnson’s administration has argued the 1% city grocery tax is necessary as a state grocery tax that sent revenue to municipalities ends. But Ald. Brendan Reilly accused Johnson of sneaking the ordinance’s introduction during a meeting to avoid legislative pushback, in what he characterized as a violation of the Open Meetings Act.

Mayor Brandon Johnson’s chief operating officer, John Roberson, is leaving the administration, ending weeks of speculation — and pushback — over his potential appointment to lead the CTA. https://t.co/ZsBoUi31Wi

More of the fallout over the ICE CityKey subpoena from those who worked on the data piece: https://t.co/cm55M1D5MD

UPDATE: Mayor's office issues new statement clarifying earlier Law Dept answer on whether the city complied w/ the ICE subpoena and says it did NOT. "Mayor Johnson will continue to resist any attempts by the federal government to violate the rights and protections of Chicagoans." https://t.co/yq7dWzqDGV

flag debate aside, i don’t think some people get how decentralized most of these demonstrations are lol like you can’t just call up the Supreme Protestor and ask them to pass along some pointers on optics

It’s not about ICE being on your side. It’s about every suburban mom and dad seeing videos of working folks wrapped in American flags getting gassed and saying “that’s just not right” How do these people not understand this?
