What does Chicago’s school board do? Why do we have so many school board members in Chicago? Which district am I in? Why is November’s election considered historic and unprecedented? The answers are here. Dems 45 will continue to share information with voters ahead of this important election.

Happy Juneteenth! Today we celebrate the ending of slavery and the freedom of Black Americans. We must also reflect on the legacy of racism in the United States and the Trump administration's ongoing campaign to erase Black history. The work to dismantle white supremacy continues.

Mueller fucked up by not compelling Trump to testify in the Russia investigation. Barr fucked Mueller by keeping the report secret and letting Trump off the hook. The media fucked Mueller by buying Trump's exoneration spin. Dems fucked Mueller by not finishing the job in 2021. So we're fucked.

Want to know the real reason property tax bills went up in Cook County? Corporate tax breaks. Companies hire property tax lawyers who donate to county politicians, then those politicians give BIG tax breaks to commercial properties. It’s pay-to-play. They get rich, you pay more.
