Avondale parents feel blindsided by plan to use park as migrant respite site – CBS2 (Chicago)

brands-park.jpg On Tuesday, when parents picked up their children who attend after school programs at Brands Park, they learned the program is being relocated abruptly. Even worse, parents were told the summer programs they and other families rely heavily on have been canceled.

Lightfoot’s thank you to Avondale residents, who clearly didn’t vote for her re-election. Lots of payback. Revenge is a meal best served cold, or in this instance, revenge is when your summer camp program is abruptly terminated.

I was on Avondale St. today, near Avondale, and I saw a couple of lingering BJ signs on some big fancy victorian homes. Reminded me why I left Chicago – the city is unsalvageable.

The People’s Republic of Evanston is not far behind:

Woman pulls knife on man at library
“A half-dozen Evanston police units responded to a disturbance call at the Evanston Public Library about 1:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Polic Cmdr. Ryan Glew says a man and a woman got into a verbal altercation inside the library that escalated when the woman pulled out a kinfe.

Nobody was hurt in the incident, and Glew says police plan to charge the woman with aggravated assault.

Glew says the argument was not a domestic dispute. It’s unknown what prompted the disagreement…”

It is the old “Not in my backyard” deal.

It will get worse–way worse if these stories have some credibility.

Here’s one saying that when Title 42 ends there could be a rush of 700K to 1M at the border. It is in the middle of this story. I believe this is according to Sen Andy Biggs of AZ.

Reports are they are flying in from every third world backwater to MX to join in with the bull rush of our border that Biden and Leftist Democrats has dismantled. Look for many to come to ‘Sanctuary’ states and cities where the handouts are best.

Hmm, pay taxes so illegals can enjoy the amenity. That’s cultural unenrichment!

You know, back in the 50’s, the four richest countries by per – capita income in the Western hemisphere were the US, Canada, Venezuela, and Cuba… the latter two are not a real good advertisement for socialism…
