Why do you need parking? There is the CTA Blue line right there as well as several major public transit stops and protected bike lanes. Which is much more than other neighborhoods of the city.

While you’re discussing new development at the church, take a moment to appreciate the nearly 120 year old building you will be meeting in. The basement needs some love but the stained glass in the sanctuary as well as the original organ is incredible.

In addition there are large celebrations throughout the city so I wouldn’t be surprised to see ICE raids happening there. Our Mayors office and the aldermen who are in predominantly Latin wards need to be prepared.

Waiving their Mexican flags and having a right good time celebrating. I guarantee that the MAGA media will make it out to be a riot and I have a feeling hell is going to break lose.

It’s chaotic, a bit of a headache with traffic etc. but no crime or riots and nothing out of the norm for Chicago during this celebration. BUT the parade will make for some great MAGA news because you will see cars full of people driving down the city streets - including downtown…

So here’s how it’s going to go down. They show up this week. Much like LA and DC, not much will happen. UNTIL the weekend of Sept 14, which as many in Chicago know is the Mexican Independence Day parade and celebration.

I too spent my day in #Chicago’s hellhole at the farmers market, walking my dog in one of the forest preserves, grilling with friends some of the items purchased at the farmers market then chilled around the fire pit (with a beer or 2) It was a dreadful day.

It’s about buying ad space in geo-targeted areas. I have a Roku and don’t see those ads at all here in Chicago. They are not right or left wing, they’re a business that will sell ad space to anyone who is willing to pay for it. The Dems in CA could just as easily buy ad space for Prop 50.

Someone should tell Vance the parable of the drowning man. God was listening and provided the means for the man to save himself he ignored the help and died. Similarly (divine or no)we have the means to prevent this from happening but our legislators are ignoring the sign right in front of them.

I can respect the fact that many people dislike Newsom, but stick a pin in that dislike until after 2026 and focus your rage on Trump and the GOP where it belongs. Dividing us is what they want because it’s the only way they can win.
