Chat is it good to spend gobs of union money fighting against the other major union in local education?
from candidates to themselves.

So far, the Chicago Teachers Union and its related political groups have spent $276,000 on Dominguez, according to Illinois State Board of Elections records. The Service Employees International Union gave Jessica Biggs $160,000 and a related PAC, Brighter Futures, has spent another $237,000 on ads supporting Biggs.

Once allies, the CTU and SEIU became estranged after CTU organizer Brandon Johnson was elected mayor SEIU Local 73, which represents CPS support staff, accused the CTU of using its newfound power to try to raid its members.

Coming up on 3 weeks with a broken neutral wire hanging off a tree and wildly fluctuating electricity through our home, everyone agrees this is an emergency but comed apparently takes 30-45 days to address this kind of thing? Love it, excellent.

This is fucked up and I don't believe any politician who claims to oppose this unless they call for prosecution of the people doing this, and I think pseudo-opposition to this is part of the problem.

Much of our sitting government is in office because it ignored rape or committed rape. At times, it seems like a job requirement. Much of our media has learned to ask evidentiary standards of survivors that they’d never hold a powerful man to.
