Conehead Lied Again - Cuts Coming
Wasn't it just a few weeks ago that Conehead left skidmarks in his underwear backtracking on the press release that said the Police Department wouldn't be affected by hiring freezes and cuts to their budget?
The Contrarian discovered differently:
Here is some chilling news for Chicago.
Despite @ChicagosMayor's claim a hiring freeze would not affect CPD, we've learned no training classes will be accepted to CPD academy until December.
CPD is also preparing for massive cuts — defund-level cuts — to the police budget.
And the rate of retirement is still quite high as the classes of the middle 90's max out and leave.
"defund level cuts" sounds ominous, demonstrating the need for a recall mechanism for voters to get lying sacks of shit out of office.

What a ghetto piece of ignorant shit.

he's right along with Tiffany Henyard of being one of the worst mayor's in America
Last one out, please turn off da lights.
Been fun, they want to be in control, fine, i moved to the country a long time ago.
Miss you guys and girls!
Has everyone received their "2024 Assessment letters" from the Cook County Assessor for their Property Taxes by now? They came out 2 days ago.
HOLY SHIT!!!
Some property taxes are doubling !!!
Chicago is a BILLION in the hole and this BASTARD is just a bitch for the teacher's union. We are screwed!!
https://www.cookcountyassessor.com/
Current 2024 budgeted positions:
Commander 48 - 43 are current : 5 openings
Captain 39 -30 are current : 9 openings
Lt 291 -262 are current - 21 openings minus who’s in training
Sgts 1417 - 1248 are current 168 openings minus who’s in training
Detectives 1292 - 1102 are current : 190 openings
So we will have to check what spots will be budgeted for in 2025.
Remember that little survey the fop did few years ago asking what 12 hour shift you’d prefer but never released the results. If city continues to cut officers, and with retirements, city will try to push for 12 hour days to help cover the man power shortage.
He’s on the warpath.
Get your overtime while you can I guess. Live within your means. Sell your second wife/house.
Its a little late for a recall but what do I know.
You have no recal options in Chicago. He is a Democrat do you think replacing him with another Democrat will make things better? If so your delousional.
Amazingly he has 100 million for illegals in the budget ahead
But who's going to step and pass a bill for recalls? That's the question...
The mayor of Disaster makes his final move.
This idiot is about to drive the school and city budgets off the cliff.
A complete moron who is the most fiscally incompetent person elected to office.
He is in the pocket of the CTU. He has no leadership skills.
Let us thank governor Pritzker and board pres Preckwinkle for helping to put this moron into office.
The Democratic party has put this city in the fiscal toilet every one of these elected morons should should be fired or indicted.
does the hiring freeze also include the useless "violence interrupters" ???
Our founding fathers were against election recalls. So it will be ruled unconstitutional. The best we can do is beg and plead Paul Vallas to run again. Paul Vallas is the only one who can save us.
Not going to sit well with people who just got their property reassessments in the mail. Get used to seeing the police in parades and funeral processions only if you live in a few of the good neighborhoods still left.
As we approach the one year anniversary of the October 7th attacks on Israel by Hamas. A terrorist attack in the United States is very likely. Pray for the U.S.A. and Israel.

We have to face it, the buffoons that run Chicago, NY, LA and other Blue State Cities aren’t smart enough to design this suicide pact with their Dem sheep. It’s much bigger than that and is born out of a true mission statement to internally destroy our big cities. Each city has the exact same mantra and it’s pure evil.
If the pension was 80% of pay if you retire at 65 there would be no problem reducing the hiring for 5 years. It would also help the pension because men will still die at 85 and women at 89.
No training classes til December… awesome!!!!!
I have my 29 years but not 55, give me medical insurance until Medicare kicks in at 65 and I’ll happily leave, no I’ll run out of here… I no longer enjoy going to work, they ruin everything!
Does this surprise anyone?
They are also telling the D unit to cut back on all OT
Almost all of those hired in the 90's should be retired. Why stay?
And the rate of retirement is still quite high as the classes of the middle 90's max out and leave.
"defund level cuts" sounds ominous, demonstrating the need for a recall mechanism for voters to get lying sacks of shit out of office.
Something is amiss to the body of this paragraph..?
Create and execute the agenda. Allow 20-30 million illegal aliens to illegally enter the country. How much taxpayer money has been given to these illegal criminals? How much money could have been deposited into the underfunded pension systems in Chicago instead of giving it away to these criminals?
The overt agenda has always been to defund the police.
The covert agenda within the defund the police movement has always been bankrupting the pensions. They just can’t say that out loud.
Cutting the police budget is just one way to achieve the agenda.
Conehead is becoming totally unhinged. He's in way over his head. God only knows what other stupid and dangerous ideas he has planned.
You would think that Democrats at the county and state level can see what a trainwreck Conehead has become. And its only going to get worse. It would take more courage and moral fortitude than they have shown in the past to enact a state wide recall law. According to this web site https://www.ncsl.org/elections-and-campaigns/recall-of-state-officials, 19 states have recall laws.
Maybe they need to start moving some of those “Be change” progressive officers out of their cushy 9to5 made up jobs (family liaisons) and put them on midnights in 5,6,7, 11, etc. or send them to ride the red line and stand on CTA platforms.
Are they letting people stay till 65? Has anyone stayed yet past the 63? Not saying I would but I know more than a few that definitely plan on staying. Gotta get your 3 CTA days at 64 years old lolol
Also upon and forthcoming '04-'05 groups which were huge hiring times that are at or hitting 20 years soon. How many are pulling the plug?
Well, they are having promotional classes though.
There's always a few that frequent the casino's regularly
This has been talked about at length per 35th St source. They are pushing hard for 12's but equipment and logistics are slowing it down but its coming sooner than later. Please don't think FOP isn't aware of it, they are and not much they can do to stop it. This isn't a contractual issue, the city and department are ready to show the data that its an emergency manpower issue.
google mitch vexler, we all need to take his advice on real estate taxes
we all need to unite and demand it!!!
What's been going on with his mouth lately? I'm not talking about all the deal flowing from it, but the mouth twitching and puckering. Tardive dyskinesia maybe?
To the smartass who belittled my comment from a few of weeks ago about this same topic and said I needed to check my reading comprehension skills, guess what junior…you don’t know as much as you think you do. Never underestimate what the city is capable of
Brandon will replace the school board members with CTU stooges. He will get his "short term" high interest loan to pay for their salary increases. Only problem is where is the money to repay the loan going to come from? Defund the police? Not enough money their. Springfield does not seem to interested in bailing out Chicago. Washington? Don't count on it even with a Hamas Harris win. Harris will have to spend on the migrants to groom them as Democratic voters. The sink hole in Ukraine drains billions. Significant tax increase, sell assets or bankruptcy are the options.
12 years today 05OCT for the 12-4 class. Congrats to all those who are riding this shit storm until retirement.
You just figured that out? Welcome to the shitshow
12 hours does not make up the shortage. It's still the same amount of coverage just different schedule. Unless you mean 12 hour days exceeding 40 hours per week every week. In order to cover the shortage, they would have to have us work more than 2080 hours per year, basically more than 40 hours every week.
Still better than Lori, he has my vote
Let’s see what Units he starts to cut. Start getting rid of all these inside spots.
From where I sit. The chumps in Chicago ain't had enough yet. I used to sit and bitch until I said fuck you and left.
Yep, went up 25%. That’s the asssssment. The tax multiplier will also in crease because I’m sure the taxing agencies will be raising their requests to the maximum allowed by law
You might have to be a pension donor for a few years, plenty of guys in that boat but you'll get the 3% COLA yearly when you hit the button which is huge.
Every politician is a liar the job is about money and power watch George Carlin on YouTube about political hacks
My assessment went up 65% and the house is falling apart.
Det s class going in Oct 14.
Heard at HQ all OT will be slashed including Special. All Detective and Unit OT will be slashed and back to being approved by a Deputy Chief.
Unfortunately Vallas is a loser. Good policies but can’t win an election
My unit is dominated by civilians and I was told I may have to go back to patrol.
Maybe the superintendent should do his part on cutting back on o.t. by not canceling everyone’s days off every time there’s something going on here. Wouldn’t be surprised if he cancels everyone’s rdos w/12hr days starting Thursday-2nd watch Monday because the marathon is Sunday.
the plan all along of the demwit party is create a federal police force...just like europe....which these traitorous bastards have been trying to turn the USA into for decades now. I may not live to see it, out in 2010, but the FNG's might.
I'm still wondering how a commander racks up 850K in debt. Did he realize that the skim in narcotics is not what it used to be?
They try that every now and then. Instead of having 2 Dets continue a homicide investigation its passed off to the next watch, then the next, and so on. What happens is when it comes time for court you now have 8 to 10 Dets instead of 2 being called to court. The dept one time tied to get tricky and not notify all the Dets so it would cut the court OT. Some judges were pissed and 1 even had a SIU Sgt brought into court to explain why not all the Dets were notified on a Child Sex abuse case.
Meanwhile the academy staff works about 3 hours per day. Come in late, work until lunch and then go home...
I'm going to set up a Go-Fund me account to pay for my property taxes...
this assumes, of course, that the voters are actually putting these people in-office. I suspect, in-spite of the dumbbell Chicago population, that most of these officials are installed and not elected.
I don’t know what the rotation, but my old outfit ran a two week schedule where we had every other week a three day weekend off . Almost as good as fire.
The 12 hour day has been the agenda since LittleFeet’s reign of terror. Bureau of Labor Management has been onboard all along. Who runs that unit? Who was on 005 when they moved to the 10 hour day? 💡💡💡
Pray for the people, not the corrupt governments run by the intelligence agencies.
over promoted moron cmdr of A2 cut OT 6 mos ago thinking it would get her promoted. shes already overpromoted and dumber than a bag of dildos.
My first advice is that no one in CPD write any tickets. My second advise is that who can get out, GO.
Someone has to pay for the illegals that are here!!
If retirements continue I can see them do away with the 55 and out
👍👍👍
It’s a person power shortage!!!
Get rid of the motor cycle unit! Units that are not needed need to go! And no one will be doing 12 hr shifts will cost more money in injuries medical stress etc either keep the horses or the cycles not both save that money
BIG NEWS SCC, Just found out through a couple reliable sources that COPA KERSTEN's c ontract is about to expire and she will be replaced by guess who....KIM FOXX !! WTF?? We are sooo screwed.
I’m surprised that the CTU has not adopted our police academy’s style of teaching. 4+ teachers to teach in 1 room per day. Each teacher teaches 1-2 hours a day and still makes $100+ k a year.
The motorcycles are a great public relations element. Everyone loves a cop on a motorcycle.
Whatever that means…?
This incompetent, corrupt CTU fucking puppet is the final straw ! Chicago is fuck up from the floor up all complements you dumber then dog shit democrats ! Reap what the fuck you morons have sown !
He cut his 200+ Chicago police detail? What about all the vehicles that he has for his detail that are all gas guzzlers costing taxpayers millions of dollars every year what about the unlimited overtime for his elite dummies that work for him?
Sorry you didn't make the unit.
The dumbed down populace doesn't care. The college loans were paid off, the bad guys were never jailed, they got more government hand-outs. Police/Law are not high values in the hood.
No prob. Hey Boss I have this Child Abuse Hotline and I have to check on the child/victim. What? Send the next watch when they come in in a hour or 2? What about the kid/victim? Ok, Mayor BJ needs the money for the illegals. Sorry kid, the Democrats in charge of this city don't care about you unless you can be used as a martyr.
The funny thing is that 99% of the department has no clue as to what a hot line is, nor do they understand the risk of not/or delaying a detective heading out to check on the child.
I was wondering the same. How on earth can someone, with Commanders pay, be so much in debt?
The trick to making up a fake rumor is to make it somewhat believable.
Bring back the wheel. Was great in the summertime.
Everyone knew he was a defund police, BLM supporter. Vallas likes police , would slash CTU , close schools with few students. People failed to vote allowed democrats to steal the election.
The federalization of local policing is going on right now but is hidden in plan sight. The plan uses consent decrees to mandate control to the federal government DOJ to run local police departments.
12 hour days will just drive more people away.
Jan doing what Jan’s do
You my friend are an imbecile
Good!! Send the over bloaded academy back to the districts.
I was hired in the 90’s—- I’m not 55 yet… it’s my choice to stay until I’m eligible for retirement health care
3% Cola huge? Far from it. It is a simple cola not a compounded one. So, not huge!
Vallas has never been elected to an office in his life. Always appointed. Has no idea how to connect with voters & run an election. Look elsewhere if you are serious about bumping the Cook Co Dem Party out of City Hall.
Healthcare - see comment above. The same problem as most working Americans.
Mandatory retirement age is 63 in the CPD.
No one here has any idea what you're talking about, 10:22. Grudges are bad for your health, chill out & let it all be water off a duck's back, you'll live longer & happier.
Bulnes has ran that place into the ground with all of her racist nonsense. She is the dumbest boss to come through this place. Overpromoted hack. How are you a dc of the training academy when you cant formulate a coherent sentence or speak in public?
They're not migrants, they're ILLEGAL ALIENS
Is it okay to chase someone on a horse? Asking for my trans blind date.
How many times a year are they used for 20k a piece.
Some inside spots are important. I know mine is.
Will the illegals be needed after the election?
So begins the winter of my discontent!
Why is this unbelievable? It fits the communist playbook.
That is the million dollar question for a lot of us in that bunch. Quite a few say they’re leaving at 20, they’ve been stuck in that no-man’s land for the last 4-6 years.
When push comes to shove will they hit the button? Only time will tell.
But most are cut from a different cloth than the previous “I need to stay till I’m 55” or “I need to get to 29 years” generations. They don’t seem to mind getting to 20 and seeking other employment after the city.
Good. The days of hiding in a spot that can be civilianized are finally over.
Did you sign up to be a policeman? Or a secretary?
9161s should be performing law enforcement tasks, period.
If you wanted an office job, should’ve went to the private sector.
Brandon Johnson is a serial liar and deceitful to his core.
Horses got problems. Multiple cr's against the lt. Sgt's and po's leaving. No body happy.
"It's inconceivable," fire department union president Patrick Cleary said. "I've been doing this for 37 years and have never heard of running our of rigs. We're one of the larger fire departments in the country and we don't have enough rigs to fill our firehouses."
It's huge if you were born after 1965.
Since there will be no academy classes, can Recruitment and Retention officers come back to districts. We can use the bodies.
Johnson cancels 2 months of police academy classes, orders layoff lists to cut $75M
3% for life is far better than for 20 years. Its more than the working police will be getting every year so pretty damn big.
65 now .Changed it a few months ago
