Establishment Expands
- Following a path blazed by countless city snow plows, Kim Foxx found her way recently to the three-story, fortress-like home of powerful Ald. Ed Burke and his wife, Illinois Supreme Court Justice Anne Burke.
The rooftop deck of the Burkes’ 5,600-square-foot home on the Southwest Side was the site of a campaign fundraiser on Aug. 16 for Foxx, the Democratic nominee in the November election for Cook County state’s attorney.
Ed Burke had been a major supporter of State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez, who was unseated by Foxx in the bitterly fought primary last spring.
Neither Burke nor Foxx wanted to talk about their budding alliance. A spokeswoman for the 14th Ward alderman and City Council Finance Committee chairman did not return calls seeking comment Tuesday. And a Foxx aide declined to answer questions about the fundraiser, instead emailing a one-line statement.
So Prickwrinkle and Burke are playing footsie. And Mike Madigan was listed as "co-host." Funny how the media reports it yesterday when it was held on 16 August - a full week ago. If that doesn't tell you investigative journalism is dead in Chicago, we don't know what would.

Too bad the building was able to sustain all that political weight.
Why do I think she will be Chicago's version of Marylin Mosny?
Are you registered to vote?
Are your spouse, adult children and parents registered voters?
What about your friends and neighbors?
Get them out to vote Republican, Vote Pfannkuche!
If you don't like Trump, ask yourself? Do I want Hillary Clinton? Hell NO!
Your freedom may depend upon it.
Move Over Deeetroit!
Chicago is dropping through!
Ok guys/gals, I had this weird image pop in my mind when I was reading this story. Maybe someone who possesses an artistic touch can generate the following imagery into a digital poster of sorts ( think WW2 Propaganda Poster ). The heading reads "Beware The Foxx" with a picture of little red riding hood, perhaps donning some kind of checkerboard around her hood while walking through a dark urban landscape with a Fox like Caricature resembling a certain individual running for States Attorney lurking in the shadows. Can someone pull this off in photoshop? Ok too many IPA's for me, Goodnight and be safe!
If you think the machine will let this idiot run that office on her own you are sadly mistaken. Nothing will change. Still have the same inept states attorneys that graduated from John Marshall junior college prosecuting cases. And still trying to hang coppers out to dry.
Yep looks the masses are going to pull the same shit when Harold Washington ran for Mayor. This is really fucked up. Anita Alvarez is a fucking hack and did a shitty job. What did Kim Foxx do to any of you, oh wait........
Policing is over. For those who do not subscribe to this belief undoubtedly will, if and when Foxx gets elected. Combine that with BLM, Rahm, Preckwinkle and Hillary (if unfortunately elected) and her ilk. Criminals will reign supreme. Nothing will improve until everyone is victimized and no longer accepts criminal behavior as acceptable. Liberalism will equal death, bloodshed, exhausted resources and economic downturn. If there is any doubt to my predictions, just examine the current violent crime statistics. Facts do not lie. MSM and politicians do.
Kim Foxx will be our "Baltimore" Mosby as far as I'm concerned.
If you vote for her, you are a Moron. No, make that Moron Supreme.
Nothing else needs to be said.
Next case.
Would love to share this publicly as I am trying to help Chris. May I have your permission?
Preckwinkle sat next to Bill Clinton during the DNC.
Figure it out.
Rahm's kinda fucked.
And you'll still have cops in his ward vote for him.
Don't these guys see behind the curtains? "When you lay down with dogs, you get fleas!"
If the electorate chose its candidates on the basis of experience and merit, Foxx would not be in the running. Foxx lied about her experience as an assistant prosecutor. Pfannkuche is much better qualified to lead the State's Attorney's Office.
Thank you for that info I just gave $25 to his campaign. I know it will be a rough road. I vote Republican so I know the struggles.
Good luck
How nice, still makes my skin crawl that the two most corrupt politicians in the state hold a fundraiser for someone who is supposed to impartially enforce the law. This state/county is pathetic.
Vote for the Republican. It's law enforcement' s last hope in Cook County.
Chris was a prosecutor at Skokie court, he was very good and has probably tried hundreds of cases. He's worth a vote.
More expansion Barry's lie about race relations getting better we have a public university room ra teaching how to stop white peoples because they are like cancer:

The liberal black problems getting worse protect your six! God bless the police everywhere!
Two of the biggest Dickheads you could ever meet in your life in the same place.
"Following a path blazed by countless city snow plows..."
That's beautiful.
I still remember Sandy Jackson, suddenly caught in TV lights, leaning out the window of the truck doing her street, "explaining" with a big smile that "she was personally supervising to make sure residents receive adequate city services."

Pfannkuche doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell. Save your money.
Now, THAT'S a switch. Burke and many others from the Machine couldn't bear to get behind Harold Washington after he won his first election as Mayor; some couldn't even say his name in tv interviews at the time, only referring to Washington as 'the democratic nominee.' My, how the times be a changing!!! Burke actually holding a fund raiser for a black politico in his own home, one of the few very white enclaves left in Chicago. Just amazing!
CHRISTOPHER E. K. PFANNKUCHE, I've heard that name someplace. For the life of me I can't remember where.... So what I and everyone I talk to is saying, Pfannkuche better get out on the campaign trail. He better start attending events, like block parties, picnics, parades, and social events. If he is serious about this uphill run he is going to need a head start. This Preckwinkle machine is strong, when you see the heavy hitters like Burke and Madigan jumping in line and saluting, you know it's not a fad. If for any reason you doubt this, call Anita Alvarez and ask her if she got the plate number of the bus that ran her over! I think few in the general public have any idea what is in store if Kim Foxx gets in this office, but they need to know.
Early voters start making their decisions now, and they want to see the face with the name when they vote. I hope this guys campaign manager is reading this, because your running out of time.
Back a candidate that will most likely overlook any criminal investigation that may be directed at your suspicious and questionable activities.
Seems like the Daley Family Outfit is finally no longer able to sustain immunity for City Hall insiders.
It worked for Clintons so far. Blago, not so much.
Corruption looking for a new stool pigeon.
These pukes will support anyone who will continue to feed their political empire. Democrats in Cook County should be charged with the RICO act.♠️
Chicago/Cook county will elect whoever is the "blessed " candidate of the democrat party in November. It's about jobs,money,corruption etc. If you think for a moment the interest of the people is what's considered you are a fool!Check the results of every election since the dawn of time,they have a lock on it because we have allowed it. Mr. P. might be a great choice for States atty. but that means nothing here. Please vote (early and often) but just look at the democrat ticket to see the winning office holders,judges etc.As the man said "Chicago aint ready for reform"
Kim Fox will be another Mosby from Baltimore. What a choice? Eddie was never the police and should stop claiming to be one. Another Daley that should be looked at by a special prosecutor. Their is no shame by these Democrats.
Snow plows. Lol nice touch SCC
Fuck Burke he has done this before and he just can't stop himself
Didn't he indict a copper from 009 when he was an ASA? Can any explain how he is different than Mahoney who prosecuted Leavitt from Northern ILL swat?
EXCLUSIVE: NYPD stops releasing cops’ disciplinary records; watchdogs call move blow to transparency
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/exclusive-nypd-stops-releasing-cops-disciplinary-records-article-1.2764145
Our politicians like the idea of body cams and tour of duty surveillance of police and the public. All of these important political elites like big police security details. Lets see what they do via body cams and dashcams in their public owned vehicles. After all why would those selected for your personal security be different than those who are entrusted with the security of the everyday people.
Let their videos and audio become publicly available via F.O.I. requests. The cynics could then see the valuable work democrats perform and dismiss any accusations of misconduct, contract steering and corruption. I'm sure after seeing the difficult jobs they perform, we would stop the accusatory nonsense and appreciate the work they do for the little people.
After all, why exempt your personal police bodyguards from surveillance and oversight. Taxpayers need to know the professionalism on display by elected officials or those who are amassing wealth through dominance and control. After all we are told public employees are held to a higher standard of conduct and have no right nor expectation of privacy.
You mean this Kim Foxx?
http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/ward-room/Cook-County-States-Attorney-Candidate-Kim-Foxx-Fined-After-Violating-Campaign-Finance-Law-370673791.html
Cook County state’s attorney candidate Kim Foxx was fined nearly $20,000 Monday by the Illinois State Board of Elections after missing a variety of deadlines for filing campaign disclosure forms and failing to report a substantial donation from Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle.
In February, the Illinois State Board of Elections ruled unanimously that Foxx violated campaign finance law by not disclosing a $25,000 donation from Preckwinkle. The donation was used to pay for a campaign poll.
Can't wait to hear HER tell some cops they broke the law and deserve to goto jail......
Just to say thank you to off duty CPD copper that caught that 18 year old black thug doing burglary yesterday on beat 811 also thanks for quick response from our beat officers we support our police and the neighborhood appreciation for what you do is overwhelming. Drive around we support our police signs, blue ribbons blue lights thank you!
Better vote for the republican Chris Pfunchke for States Attorney in cook county
Ed Burke was employed by the CPD as a patrolman but was never a police officer. From the moment he got out of the academy he was given special treatment. He never worked the street. There are many non street assignments in the 001st District. He worked them all. He is the perfect example of who do you know. In his case it was his father. It must have been nice not to work a beat car and hid.
Ed Burke and his father gamed the City by having the City pay for this chiseler's law degree. He never did a days police work. This is from one of his classmates.
So he has been fleecing the city since his early 20's. He is the poster boy for "career politician". Any decent man would be embarrassed to do have his life's work be that of a low life thief, but Ed is proud of it. He should be. Only Madigan has been a bigger weasel. If you are going to be a thief, do it big.
Ed, you aren't fooling anyone. We all think you are scum. Only your sycophants lick your boots. The rest of us hate you.
SCC. - Sorry for posting my comment about Burke on the three years thread. I propose we stop referring to AlderCrook Burke as a former policeman. He loves to let people know he was on the job. In reality, he was an officer working an inside job while attending law school. His time on the street was limited. Since his actions - not words - demonstrate repeatedly that he no longer supports the police, let's hurt him where it hurt will hurt the most - his ego. AlderAss or AlderCreature are two suitable monikers, but AlderThief or Crook is more appropriate.
Former police officer/firefighter should be reserved for Ald. Napolitano or Sposato whose actions, not words, prove their loyalty.
Retired .38 spl +P

F*** off asshole, what are you 90 years old? Google it moron.
Vinyl Fence Guy
Go with Freeman Fence. Good work and pro police.
Chairman Burke has done many a citizen and nobody copper' many favors. His late father was the same way. Making bull allegations about him is not right. Eddie could not put his name on a ballot to get elected to alderman, and the ward citizens would write him in with a landslide.
Ed' wife have silently helped many real deal org', that helps so many people out to no end and someone else takes the credit.
The chairman works 16 hours a day and always dropped a check to copper' getting killed in the line of duty and for copper' and other city employee' needing help.
The shit with Mayor Washington was only a ploy. The good mayor got along with Eddie and fast Eddie quite well.
Please don't start ranting on Mayor Harold. He died with $ 30.00 bucks in his home. Harold was a good man. He paid back the Daley' for years they fucked everyone and dumped 25 commander' in CPD. Harold was well loved by all ethnic' of the city and it was good times when Harold spent the day in the N/W side of the city !! Daley fucked Mayor Lady Jane thinking he would win in a three way race. Daley hated Jane cause of the affection his father showed to Lady Jane when she worked for him !!!!! Daley and his wife bleed the city of nearly dry, selling and destroying landmarks and great revenue to the lowest bidder. Daley sold the Sky Way and the meter' for spit. It was said the value of these revenue makers were sold at 15 percent of their real value. The Daley' have no souls. Beautiful Miggs airport/field is now a swamp with Daley' old lady wanting it for a haven for rats !!
Rahm has a long way to go to catch up to the midget being the biggest Jag mayor. Rahm is gone after this term and will land on his feet with Hillary. The republicans are done with, the good days of having a president like Reagan is over. Trump is whacked and the silent majority will not even vote this November.
12:38 on 25Aug-
You sir are a real jagoff. The man asked a question. If you don't know the answer just remain silent.
90 years old? No sir, just seeking out advice from my brothers. My bad, maybe I should have posted some rant about some sgt. Who is mean to me on the watch or how I hate this job and this city etc...
