Inspector General Deborah Witzburg’s determination that Gardiner violated the city’s Governmental Ethics Ordinance is the “first-ever finding of probable cause in an inspector general ethics investigation of a sitting member of City Council,” officials said.

“In addition, Chicago taxpayers paid $100,000 to resolve a lawsuit filed by a man who claimed he was wrongfully arrested at Gardiner’s request after finding a cell phone that belonged to a close associate of the alderperson, records show. That associate is now facing charges he tried to sell an illegal machine gun while working for the city.”

My wife has to spend a week in this cesspool next month for work.

I’d be happier if she told me she was deploying to Iraq for a week for ‘veteran’s outreach’.

She’d be safer…

OF COURSE! Anyone who is right of communist gets investigated by the Chicago city council. Keep in mind, City Council redrew his district, and he was STILL reelected.
