More Downgrades - Rahm is Angry
- Moody’s Investor Service dropped the bond ratings of Chicago Public Schools and the Chicago Park District to junk a day after it did the same for the city of Chicago.
For CPS, the downgrade doesn’t trigger any new payments to financial institutions, but the worsening of CPS’ ratings could potentially affect negotiations the district has entered into with several banks over those “swap” termination fees.
Moody’s dropped CPS’ rating three notches to Ba3 from Baa3, with a continuing negative outlook. The Chicago Park District saw the same three-notch slide to Ba1 with a negative outlook.
Rahm is not happy at all:
- Mayor Rahm Emanuel ripped Moody’s Investors Service on Wednesday for dropping the bond rating of the city, the Chicago Public Schools and the Chicago Park District to junk status and denied that his negotiating position with police and fire unions has been undercut by an Illlinois Supreme Court ruling overturning state pension reform.
Emanuel portrayed Chicago’s economy as “strong and getting stronger” and said City Hall is making good progress in pension reform talks with police and fire unions. That includes the possibility of lifting the hammer hanging over the heads of Chicago taxpayers: a state-mandated, $550 million payment due in December to shore up police and fire pensions.
Someone correct us if we're wrong, but didn't Ramh make his millions in the world of high finance? He's at least passingly familiar with inflow and outflow as it pertains to money? No? Well then how did he make $11 million in such a short amount of time? Oh...right...the same way Hillary turned cattle futures into a pile of cash.
Side note - Dean, you've got Rahm over a barrel. Literally. You've got four aces. Any "progress" Rahm says he's making with the police and fire pensions is contingent entirely on the goodwill of the membership....and guess what? We don't have much. He's been fucking us since day one. Time to fuck him back. Here's a suggestion or three:

He's been fucking us since day one. Time to fuck him back. Here's a suggestion or three:
- Miss a few meetings. Daley and Rahm's negotiators were famous for that. Schedule a meeting, then call it off the day before without giving a reason.
- Demand the moon, stars and the sun. What have you got to lose? Time? Time is his enemy, not ours. Talk to the CFD guys and get those casino suggestions we made a few days ago written in blood, preferably his. Demons don't like contracts written in blood.
- Show up, order coffee, a lunch or two, dinner if you drag things out, stiff Rahm and his negotiators with the bill. This opportunity may never present itself again. Drag it out all summer and all fall. Who cares? Then when December rolls around, walk away. He wanted to make firefighters bleed? He wanted to "stick it in the cops' ears?" Fuck this jagoff. You'll get our $550 million with or without him. He's up against a state law to pay.
Don't fuck it up Dean. Do not fuck it up.

Hey Dean, here's an idea, call Brock Merck in 014. He'll negotiate on our behalf, and we trust him.
He's just acting like he's pissed. He doesn't give a flying fuck.
Drag it out?
All the little retiress in FL and AL will be worried that Dean-O is going to rip them off. Don't doubt the ability of Rahm and the Democrats to say you are going to throw granny off the cliff. This is Democrat Playbook Act #3.
#1 is call you racist.
#2 is say you will force them to cut school funding.
#3 is accusing you of throwing mama from the train.
Good advice SCC. Anyting less and it will prove that Dean is Rahm's bitch.
Dean, if you sell out the membership, fuck you!
Rahm will pay off the Fire and Police pensions with millions of dollars in Chicago Municipal bonds. What could be better than having your pension invested in your own city?
A few years back had a burglary in progress at the former bakery at garfield and state. The parking lot was turned into some type of storage for trucks. There were some guys that broke into the building. The nightwatchman was hesitant to let the police in to the building. Once the police got in they saw the building had a race track for R/C cars, a skateboard track and pallets of school supplies. Some with school names on them. Textbooks, crayons and chalk. The owner of the property showed up. I'm told that he sits (or did) on the police board. I see that now the yard is used for storage of feld trees. Maybe from the last big storm.
Wait until Moody's Downgrades the State Bonds too.
Do not be nice or even trust any politician. They will stab you in the back. We pay into the pension every two weeks with no say. They mismanaged the pension. They caused the mess. The bill is due and they have the money. The seem to find the $$$$ for every other BS project they want if it gets them reelected. The anger needs to be directed toward Daley. He caused this then walked away with his fortune. He made so many deals to keep the machine running knowing it would break later on. Someone in the media needs to do a 2 hour investigative documentary on what Daley and his crew did.
Will there ever be outrage directed at what Daley did to this city? Will the media ever start blaming him? Come on now! How are all his pensions?
Don't hold your breath, SCC.
FOP could fuck up a one-car funeral in Chinatown.
Just shows the how the minds of politicians work, and their attitude.
SCC, please run for FOP President.
Deano isn't going to do anything to piss his puppet-master off. Deano has a few corrupt reasons why: 1. Meritorious Promotion for Deanie Jr. 2. Deano has his disability scam hanging over his head. 3. Deano is angling for a high-paying City of Chicago job with the minimum of hard work to do..Deano is by nature a lazy bum,unless he can scam some money out it. Dean Angelo will intentionally fuck up and when he gets called on his bullshit it will be all twisted up semantics and lies for the gullible few. In advance,Deano,Deanie Jr and to all of your asskissing Corruption Crew: Go Fuck Yourselves...
Can somebody clue me in here?
Pension "reform", aka cuts, has been vehemently struck down by the Illinois a Supreme Court yet Rahm is still repeating his mantra that he won't raise taxes, find extra revenue etc. until he gets his pension "reform".
On top of Rahm's idiocy you've got Dean, yes sir Rahm, Angelo saying he won't negotiate on pension "reform" until Rahm makes the city's required $550 Million deposit into our pension fund.
Memo to Dean: there's nothing you should be negotiating as far as pension reform. You've got Rahm and his yes men by the short hairs. Ignore them, fuck with them, bad mouth them..... you know do all of the little things Rahm has repeatedly done to us.
Don't fuck this up Dean.
He will FUCK it UP... Guaranteed!!!
How about making sure that we do not go to 10 hour days and for free health insurance once you retire regardless of your age, why should someone get free health care( or 2%) if they only worked 20 years and retire at 55, yet an officer who retires at 50 - 54 with 29 years gets shafted and must pay upwards of $1400 a month?
He's tied to the top of Sears Tower you grab him by the scrotum and leap off!
Thanks for the suggestion that the FOP ask for the stars, moon and sun. I'm hoping that some of your readers who are unfamiliar with labor unions and collective bargaining will realize that CTU has to do the same thing in order to get a few crumbs.
It's a death spiral.....and it's speeding up.
ChIraq ChIraq
Rham you got your wish Mayor of the garbage Heep
I think we all know whats going to happen. He will sell us out like he did with the contract. If you expect him to be on the membership side, you are wrong. It was evident when he opened his big mouth earlier this week about property tax increases, which was none of his business. He needs to keep his mouth shut. But he won't. He will sell us down the river…..again.
HAH! Dean will fuck it up.
Good advice. Does Deano have the balls to do it?
Funny how our fop never uses the media to refute any negative press we get. They say the media doesn't contact them or return their calls, but all off a sudden the media is right there when the fop wants to make us the bad guys with a temporary property tax.
Dean instead of asking for a temporary property tax in the media, you explain to them how the city and state created this mess!
Rahm was at Fop last week. Saw him come out of Fop offices and get into his ride. Then Dean comes out with the Sun-Times report wanting to raise taxes. We all know the city has to raise taxes, but why is our goof the one in the news suggesting it. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
The US dollar in many parts of the world is worthless. In Europe today, they'd rather you pay in Euro's not dollars.
Listen up Flop. Dean had it explained to him when he had his splinter meetings trying to get us to accept this contract. Dean you have injured this body by accepting terms because, as you put it ......its gonna happen anyway.....you could have not allowed to put an end date on the 55 with 29 and a day on the covered insurance. Never....NEVER had we had a contract that stopped a benefit on a specific date. Normally a contract continues until a new one is ratified. But you had to burn all those from the 1985 exam that were hired in 88, 89, 90 etc who entered the academy under 25 and won't have completed their 29 years and a day until 2018, 2019, 2020 etc. We have worked the same amount of time as those we were hired with who were a year or two older but we do not get the same benefit. How do you burn those who have worked equally not get equal benefits......oh yeah you got yours.

The financial guys who understand this and put their money and reputation at risk are saying Chicago is fucked!
It is time to scramble and scavenge for the crumbs.
Beat the others to the casino revenue and volunteer to reform by elimination of double dipping and gold braid pensions to get some measure of goodwill and then say we have done our part, now eliminate some aldercreatures.
Every year we wait, the greater will be the cut we all face.
Anyone saying to not reform our pensions is ignorant, short sighted and a math illiterate.
Great suggestions also lets not forget that Teachers will go on strike because the had the balls to challenge Rahm and we need to back them. They stood up to the bully and we watched from the side!! That's not right. That's not what I do.
"Do not fuck it up Dean. Do not fuck it up."
He'll fuck it up. They always do.
Virtually all of the active service FOP members were born after 1955
Restoring the 3% COLA for those born after 1955 needs to be priority #1
Dr Dean is soft!
He is happy to be raking in the cash as FLOP president.
He will take what Rahm gives him with a future favor for the future.
Could be a private sector job!
I crack up seeing Donahue the former prez at meeting trying to stay relevant playing grab ass with the pizza squad that yaks during meeting in the bar area.
Dean keep your trap closed don't even mention pensions!
Rahmmie the Commie, expert on communist re-distribution of wealth.
Read today's Sun Times where it says Rahm is in negotiations with police and fire unions over pension reform and the negotiations are going well. WTF Dean say it isn't so. Tell us Rahm is lying and there are no negotiations. Tell us you are not that stupid to negotiate anything after the Supreme Court ruling came in our favor. Tell us something, stop talking to the press and the City and talk to us the police men and woman who voted you in as president. Don't do it Dean, don't fuck with our pensions.
Don't fuck this up Dean!
If chicago or illinois were a business... those life long democrap politicians would have been fired decades ago.
Dean if you give in, promise you this the membership will at the next meeting after you screw us will remove you and your crew understand?
Absolutely unconscionable that Rahm blames Moody's. What is worse, none of the news outlets calls him on it. And then he uses the old excuse that others are doing it, how come they're coming after me. He wants to know how come they are lowering the city's rating and not the state. To Rahm, the only thing that should matter is the CITY"S RATING along with the Park District and Schools. And again, no one calls him on this.
I posted about pension fund problems and general financial problems of the city in 2008 when I retired. There were many comments directed towards me that were not very complimentary.
One of the biggest problems the city faces now is their swap agreements. I do not know what the agreements are but knowing what Daley did ( always the easy way out), these agreements are probably very costly. If these agreements are triggered, bankruptcy is a real possibility. I hope all of the active members saved their Retro money.
Stay safe.
old retired guy
yeah Rahm Moodys is the problem... he sounds like China or Russia, when ratings services call them out these countries prosecute the ratings agencies.
It hurts all of us on the job when the city credit rating is reduced. I wouldnt be so happy about it.
Get Rid of the Employee head Tax for Business,Another Daley Moronic Idea.
Just before Rham was elected the first time, a retired alderman ( and buddy of the mayor ) gave him the names of a couple of retired guys who could show him how to save a little money (millions).
He came into office knowing the city was in trouble. so you guessed it. He blew off the retired guys and listened to some of his slick buddies, who compounded the problem.
Way to go Rham!!!!
Needless to say, its also a slap in the face to the alderman who tried to halp.
The banks have figured it out. If you give Chicago wiggle room, Chicago will borrow more money. If you leave CPS with a better rating, Chicago will fund their graft there and use back doors financing. If the park district has a better rating, then fund the city there. If the city was a private company, it would stop all non essential projects.
How about an executive airport on the lake? You can charge premium landing fees and soak the rich. I know a great place for one.
Dean will fuck it up.
"Miss a few meetings. Daley and Rahm's negotiators were famous for that. Schedule a meeting, then call it off the day before without giving a reason."
The exact same tactics that Rahm's team is using in negotiations with faculty at the Shitty Colleges of Chicago. Another session blew up on Tuesday. All told the city has stalled negotiations for about five months by canceling or postponing meetings on short notice, sometimes when the bargaining team is waiting in the conference room.
He will go kicking and screaming to the T.I.F. Funds, and use them to do what should have been done years ago. This is an enormous problem he inherited but has done nothing to correct. Our Unions should be calling for a Federal Inquiry to force the books open and demand accountability and transparency.
All I can add to that wonderful rant is to stand behind Rahm every chance you get, turning an imaginary crank sticking out of his ass and making calliope noises.
Some people never learn:
'The same dudes you abuse on the way up,
You might meet up,
On the way down.'
I am willing to wager that Dean will indeed fuck it up. He is in cahoots with the mayor. The city's political establishment probably offered to take care of him and his whole family.
It is time for us as a union to watch over Disability Dean. He needs to be reminded that he is supposed to work for us and not for Emanuel. If there is any inkling of him tilting towards the mayor then we need to take proper action. If we don't then we have no one to blame but ourselves.

I love it when Rahm fakes his anger. Just look back all of the times that little twerp has acted angry. Then the media carries the water for him by writing ridculous headlines: "Mayor Emanuel Angry At City Unions", "Mayor Emanuel Upset With Big Banks", etc.
"Politics is like wrestling, it is all fake"- Jesse Ventura.
I notice that in almost every post about finances or pensions, someone mentions the city can't touch my deferred comp. Think again, if you research the facts deferred comp, even though you contribute and it's handled by private company, REMAINS AN ASSET OF THE GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY. This is part of the law regulating such plans allowing you to defer income tax on that earned money. Although it would be a set of drastic circumstances for the city to take possession of the funds, they have the legal right to do so. When Washington got elected and was fighting with the city council this was mentioned. Several of us checked with deferred comp and we were told ,no, it's your money, when pushed, we were finally told, yes it remains an asset of the governmental agency until you begin to withdraw your funds upon separation from governmental employment. Several of us were afraid of Washington, Jarrett his chief of staff, and the city council games and stopped contributing. Hindsight shows it was a mistake on our parts. However, when commenter states it's our money, they are flat out talking out their butts.
The last time Chicago had a Republican mayor was one year before Al Capone went to prison for tax evasion.
Know it all,
Rahm was at FOP for the Memorial. You left that piece of information out . Next time why don't you come in and respect our fallen.
Dean does not have Rahm over anything. Legislator could pass the enabling legislation for bankruptcy. Then, the bankruptcy judge decides where any money goes.

You won't believe this then. In Britain, they'ed rather you pay in Pounds. in Switzerland, Swiss Francs.
No, Rahm is not a financial whiz kid. He doesn't even have an MBA (should be a prerequisite for mayor). He obtained, his multimillion windfall on insider information, the kind that put Martha Stewart in jail. He hired Amir Ahmad from Ohio to come in and adjust Daley's City Hall ledgers, unfortunately he was sent to jail for a previous civic manipulation. Wonder how the new Treasurer will last or how much he has to cook books.
So now after 30 years of trying to screw over the retirees and pension system, the can has reached the end of the road and nobody is left to blame?
Rahm didn't think this day would come while he was still here, or is he now betting H will rescue his ego.
More show biz from 9.5. He needs the downgrade to raise taxes instead of redirecting the funds from pet projects to current liabilities. Forensic audit!
And the nerve of Rammy to declare he hasn't ruled out bankruptcy,he's warning the public to brace yourselves for increases upon increases,taxes on bottled water is truly ridiculous,and a 7 mile radius to include city taxes in surrounding suburbs,this guy just dreams and hopes it comes true,I bet in his dream he the judge,jury and the monopoly guy!
*** PAY ATTENTION FOP MEMBERS ***
Dean Angelo has NO AUTHORITY to negotiate pension changes. The pension is NOT PART OF OUR CONTRACT. IT IS STATE LAW. Dean has no authority to negotiate this...just look into our FOP constitution and by-laws! By negotiating, Dean is stepping into a precarious legal area called "consideration". This is the legal loophole the Mayor is using for changes to the Municipal Workers pension changes. DON'T ALLOW THIS! THE NEXT FOP MEETING IS TUESDAY AT NOON! BE THERE!
CHIRAQ CHIRAQ I vote Spike Lee for Mayor,at least the truth be told,Rham says the names offensive,but so is running red lights and at the same time trying to rip off retirees and have the Supreme Court step in,on top of an increased murder rate, and claiming your broke but buying luxury items like Maggie parks and not paying your bills,no different than a ghetto rat,I'd say!
TIF funds? A billion at most-- city is almost 60 billion underwater.
the time for a Forensic Audit is long over do , go back the last 12 years
So who is left on the FOP Board of Directors which allowed Daley not to pay back $29 million he borrowed? Can we obtain a transcript on the Board's votes? This will show us if both sides of the toast is buttered!
In today's Sun Times Rahm says it's important that labor( Police and Fire Unions) show that they're part of the solution by negotiating pension reform instead of putting it all on the taxpayers.
Excuse me but who put it on the taxpayers? Wait for it....... yes the lying, thieving politicians like Daley and Rahm and their ilk.
Even if Rahm was sincere about this, and you know damn well he's not, there'd be no reason to negotiate pension reform with a weasel like him.
Rahm could give a slithering snake an inferiority complex and we're supposed to negotiate reform with him? To show the taxpayers we want to be part o the solution?
Hey Rahm... go fuck yourself.
Dean you better not enter into any serious pension reform talks with this completely untrustworthy jag off.
He will go kicking and screaming to the T.I.F. Funds, and use them to do what should have been done years ago. This is an enormous problem he inherited but has done nothing to correct. Our Unions should be calling for a Federal Inquiry to force the books open and demand accountability and transparency.
5/14/2015 09:53:00 AM
I wholeheartedly agree. The TIF funds could change everything yet Rahm absolutely refuses to consider that option.
He wants his pension "reform" and he wants it now!
Your president has been helping fuck you all out of your pensions for years now. Why couldn't he work a desk job at callback?
Spike Lee appeared Thursday on Chicago's South Side with parents whose children were victims of the city's gun and gang violence. Lee has been criticized for the title combining the names Chicago and Iraq from aldermen and Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who told the director that the title was unfair to residents.
Rahm Emmanuel is unfair to the residents not Lee
Chuy did not have a budget plan neither did Rahm. Ya big winnies!

Remember boys n girls. We let this happen. If we were smart and stuck together, we wouldn't be in this mess. Look at New York's pension. 80% after 20 years??? No matter what the age. We short change ourselves then bitch and bitch but do nothing about it.
Maybe bankruptcy is the whole point. Let it go until some judge has to clear up the mess, and Rham and his political buddies get some deniability.
Don't screw this up dean because there will be a riot in your front yard. Lol

Go ask any teacher with at least 10 years on what they thought of their last contract - they got nothing for walking out. Looked good on Tv though.
Well, everyone voted for him. And I'll have to pay for it.
For get the freekin infrastructure. Put the money in the pension.
Right on ! Take the fight to him ! Send a message!
Hey Dean, here's an idea, call Brock Merck in 014. He'll negotiate on our behalf, and we trust him.
A little early for the single malt, isn't it?
It seems that when I call for legal representation from the FOP for duty related type of things I can't ever get a lawyer to be sent with me. I have had to call on others and then they call on my behalf and finally I get representation by the FOP. Has anyone got the same type of problems? I know that some in the past have been told that representation will be sent by Kathy, then they check prior the date of representation and there's no record of their call or request. I feel that only some get the FOP representation and others like me that rarely call and do need them, I just can't get them to help me.
We are going to loose everything. Because once people get elected or get to work for the FOP they get taken care of and then forget about the rest of us. Must be nice.
The words of the modern day prophets are written on the subway wall. Chicago is in Deep Doo-Doo!!!
Can you read the writing???
If Dean Angelo intentionally fucks this up?
He shouldn't know a good night's sleep for
the rest of his traitorous life... Let alone everything between waking up and laying down be full of the same grief and aggravation the blue shirted peons are contending with...
May be roll over in bed to gaze lovingly at whatever reward Rahm has promised him, only to lay eyes on
the grinning skeleton it really is...
...Don't you dare holler "Doctuh" Angelo.
Fucked up, traitorous choices have consequences.
Do not give our backs to Rahm or his money conjurer friends who are hot and greasy with lust at being so close to riding the anti-police/first responder pension agit-prop to "reform" us out of what we played by the rules and worked for.
This FLOP is not on your side. For Instance, I have a friend whom I've known for 40 years in the current FOP and asked him how to proceed on an issue . I was hung out to dry. This is nothing new, we haven't had a real union for over 20 years. Chicago politics at it's best.
What is lost in bankruptcy?
Your whole contract- wages, any assignments, overtime, if you have any time on the books- up to the judge, probably some holidays, seniority can be adjusted,.health insurance costs, pension contributions.
That state law that gives the money to the pension fund- up to the judge- he/she may give it to other parts of city government.
Unless you were shot , put people do disabilty back to work if they are able to drive their kids to and from school travel on vacations , sitting in a cramped jet for 3-5 hours .

Put them on first watch , first deputy office , back door public safety building , Holman square , Eros , crime lab . They are laughing all the way to bank , while driving kids to school , back home for a nap etc.

Dean, if you sell out the membership, fuck you!
5/14/2015 12:53:00 AM
He's already sold out the membership. Officers not receiving duty availability pay which is part of our salary is heinous. 10.5 hour days. Need I say more?
Wa Wa Raham
Time to organize a shadow fop board to negotiate the real desires of the membership with the current fop board. They do not listen to us and we need a group that will fight them for us.
Rahm IS a genius. What do you think will happen when Rahm decides to strategically default on all of these municipal junk bonds? Sell off Maggie Park and the Bean to repay it? Hell no! He'll renegotiate the bonds and consolidate them so he gets a more favorable, smaller, and more manageable pay outs.
There's a method to this madness you're overlooking.
Did everyone forget that
Nine-Digit-Midget and his band of thieves once lobbied Moodys to drop the bond rate.
Thst was like 21/2 years ago
Also does any notice that when the subject of pensions cones up
Bond rates drop?
This my fellow Officers is equal to a POLITICAL PONZI SCHEME all rat politicians should be in JAIL for misusing OUR PENSION money......no other way about it. We still paying into so PAY TO PLAY MIDGET PAY UP BICTHES!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dean dean dean do you hear us? Go back and hide in your office when we come to see you, the outside office door is locked, the receptionist goes into the secure prison area and comes out if "stalag 17" and says your in a meeting, not available, not here! Now do the same and STFU no pension negotiations goof!
Downgrades? What caused this? Thought rahm had "all the right people in place?" Err guess not! Could that be why his top guy Ahmed tried to escape? wonder how much of our money he absconded with?
Remember boys n girls. We let this happen. If we were smart and stuck together, we wouldn't be in this mess. Look at New York's pension. 80% after 20 years??? No matter what the age. We short change ourselves then bitch and bitch but do nothing about it.
The above post is not accurate. The 20 years any age is right, but the percentage is wrong. If you leave in 20 you get 50 %, which is still great if your 42 years old when you reach the 20 year mark.
He's angry! At Daley and his theft cabals! That's who propagated this, and yet you name a park after his wife. He needs to authorize a forensic audit and now, to prove how broke the city is, or is it broke? Why are the alderman not requesting this? None of them! That would be a great first step, to get taxpayers to have faith in the system, and show sunshine. As a matter of fact didn't dean our duly elected fop president say he was going to audit all monies if he was elected president? Bows the time, how's the time!
Unless you were shot , put people do disabilty back to work if they are able to drive their kids to and from school travel on vacations , sitting in a cramped jet for 3-5 hours .

Bring them back as City Workers, not necessarily on the Police or Fire Departments.. Have them report to work on Midnights, give them a mop and a bucket, and see how quickly these "poor disabled fakers" become well again
