FOP Shitshow
Fun times at the Board Meeting last night.
Catanzara requested (demanded?) the Board hire a lawyer, but not just any lawyer - a lawyer with experience dealing with federal investigations. Now who would be under a federal investigation and why would the Lodge have to pay for that lawyer? Unless the Lodge itself was under investigation?
He also fired the First VP (Mette) from his Field Rep spot. As readers may or may not be aware, the Field Rep spots are filled at the direction of the president, meaning if an opposition candidate won a top seven spots that are traditionally also Field Reps (Pres, VP1, VP2, VP3, Recording Sec, Financial Sec or Treasurer) the President can (and has in past administrations) frozen out opponents to put lackeys in.
If we aren't mistaken, there was a By-Law proposal to lock in the top seven spots as Field Reps since members voted for them to be there, but it was shot down by either Nolan or Donahue so they could control who was detailed to the Lodge.
Mette is still First VP, but he'll be back at his regular assignment when the paperwork clears downtown. That's what happens when you're the one filing the charges against the president.
Strap in boys and girls - things are getting interesting, and not in a good way.

Wow.
Bending over and boning the guy who could potentially bury you is certainly a bold strategy.
Let’s see if it pays off!
Is there no sanctuary from the human species cravings for drama?
Besides the grave?
Sorry you getting treated like that Mike. How did that song go : whistle while you.....$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
AI Overview
John Pallohusky's cell is vacant down in Taylorville.
Hang on to the soap TIGHT in the shower ASSHOLE.
Catanarza coulda been great for us, now not so much.
Sad....
Mette is no hero. He and every member of the FOP board should be fired. For all these years they looked the other way and let John lie, steal and cheat. They have no loyalty to the union members. They are selfish cowards and users.
Nolan was a total sell out as was Donahue. Both self serving. Remember when everyone thought Donahue was gonna get these great contracts along with 89/20? All a joke. And which tool was it who decided to forgive $10 or $20 mil in pension debt owed by the city. Thst reallt paid off, our contract was especially shitty that round. FOP and pbpa are an absolute joke.
Can we as members vote not to pay for an attorney to represent John? Something along the line of he pays up front and if found not guilty he can be reimbursed
No one at all should be surprised at any of this.
Cat has been a disaster for the FOP since he was
first voted in. Welcome to the party!
John Catanzara brought in Brian Hlavin an attorney to explain why it was important to hire another attorney recommended by Local # 150 who specializes in basically corruption . The rumor mill is churning stoked by John’s downstate field rep confidant Mikey Cos ( Pinocchio ) . He allegedly told the Board that numerous people have been interviewed by Federal agencies in relation to the inner workings of Fop .
When asked by the 1st Vp of why you needed an attorney Catanzara’s barked back “ why don’t you tell us who the target and scope of the investigation is about ?”
Paranoia ,
Denial , pride and ignorance has crept into the President office and he convinced the Board to hire this attorney to “ protect the Lodge !”
You go into executive session so that there is no record or anyone outside the executive board to hear what you are talking about .
After the meeting concluded Mike Mette was approached by Catanzara who told him he was not a field rep anymore and to contact labor relations for his next assignment. When asked why his reponse was “ I don’t have to tell you !” Maybe JRat wasn’t aware that you need two thirds majority vote to expel
A field rep but hey when did John start following rules .
They kicked the can down the road trying to delay the audit of the credit cards and are now suggesting the Audit Committee review the credit card receipts prior to that happening . Dave Trisanti the one who collected the money for the Miami cruise heads this committee. Throw in Harold Brown and you get the picture .
When there is an investigation for financial malfeasance that is active no lawyer will be able to obtain info about it . This is a waste of Lodge money 💰! Throwing Mette under the bus 🚌 is the latest snafu by King John .
Please attend
The next meeting on the third Wednesday at noon . Go to the microphone and ask specific questions of which you will receive answers such as “ you are out of order “ and “ I’m not answering that !”
We don’t need a soap opera we already have one ! John this isn’t a bullshit Police Board case this is the Feds wrapping
Up an investigation which in all likelihood end
Up with you and some of your cohorts in handcuffs .
In the words of JRat “ this is disgusting “ and “you should be ashamed of yourself !”
Mette will get a soft landing at EAP when Graham has to retire. People were coming to see their Dr. at Fop because they didn't trust EAP. Which is funny because NO ONE At FOP trusts Graham working at EAP. Graham was owed by the city when he got caught in a residence beef and wasn’t fired. Rahm sav.ed him which sucked because the mayor owned the Fop president for three years. That’s why they hate John. He’s a wild card every day and no one owns him. This is a bad Greek tragedy. No one at Fop understands how/why Mette got involved with Graham. I’d give this 6 weeks or so and let’s see who is the evil wizard behind the curtain.
We need all new people in FOP.
Tik tok Johnny
Why are you fools allowing the automatic payroll deduction? You lodge is crooked.
JCat actions demonstrate a troubling pattern of overreach and inflated ego. It is imperative that his conduct be thoroughly examined. A full investigation should be launched into all alleged criminal activities, with particular attention to his financial dealings. Every personal record and cash transaction must be audited to determine exactly where the funds have gone. Mette needs to file a grievance and whistleblower complaint ASAP. JRats revenge abuse has no boundaries. He targets someone every year.
JPussy, digging his own corrupt grave, one shovel full at a time. Enjoy prison.
What ever happens never vote for KG or EJ.
Mette single handedly destroyed the FOP.
Voted for John twice because at the time he really was the real deal. But clearly he's changed his ways when he sampled the unlimited FOP credit card and started buying 10k paintings to "beautify" the lodge. Myself and many other officers believed he overstepped his spending authority by purchasing that painting. New truck, 100k hot dog trailer, 10k paintings, weekly $1000 union business steak dinners, what else is there?...
Open the books, FOP!
not good
jcell#9 better hire a team of lawyers because jackstabbitch and harold are already singing in the wind
All John has done is take our money and waste it.
Where's our painting?
How the hell is useless Harold Brown still at the FOP? That’s exactly what’s wrong, people associated with the fop for decades breeds corruption. Term limits!!!
Mark Donahue…..
Oct 1st wherer is the indictment? This BS is like listening to Global Cooling, Global Warming, No, I mean Climate change Al Gore conspiracy shit. Keep crying wolf MF’s. (Cat is still there) Gretta Thuneberg is still an ugly propagandist conspiracy peddling whiny bitch (just older) and the world has not ended. Im still voting for him!
He hasn't changed one but! How bad of an Officer are you that you didn't recognize this guy is a CRIMINAL! You're one of these Coppers that couldn't find Narcotics at the Crime lab!
Just remember you can always call the Lodge and request to be a fair share member until Catanzara is removed. They are only providing you with an attorney the first time you make a statement! But look at this Gypsy.
Everyone is feeling bad for Mette. You guys know why he filed charges right???? Mette knew the Feds were investigating. None filed charges so he would look like the good guy, the whistleblower who had nothing to do with it. This was his last ditch attempt to save his own skin with the impending investigation. He figures he looks like the clean guy in all of this if he files charges. It’s been years and years Mike. Too little too late. It’s like fatstavich who all of a sudden pulled all those pictures off his Facebook page of his lavish dinners out. He just pulled them all down in the past few weeks.. way too late, if it’s just coming out now that the fbi is investigating then you are about a year too late, I guarantee they have been working on the background for at least a year.. that’s how the Feds do it. Mette is no hero, just a guy who is trying to not be the last guy without a chair but it’s way too late… Mette has known about the spending for years and did nothing until they knew they were screwed
💯 agreed. Everyone needs to go now!
Mette and everyone you mentioned in the post should be fired. They each betrayed the members.
If there was an investigation im pretty sure the feds would have sent target letter demanmding that no correspondence or evidence be destroyed or tampered with. The feds dont do phone interviews as alledged either. So to the bots posting The sky isnt falling and the only colusion is your fingers pleauring yourself as your mind believes this crap is real
Firing M. Mette was not a bad move. Mike was okay with everything as long as JC was giving him a freehand to do what he wanted to do.
Jrat was NEVER gonna be great for us. He ran his campain while on the medical. Not going to work but going to every district while his opponents wrked everyday. Should never have been allowed. John has been lazy, loud, childish and selfish the entire time. Treated so many like garbage while his team giggled. Demanded total and complete obedience by his team, held being kicked out over their heads constantly. Field reps up there scared silly, yeah Gorman, talkin bout you. The whole group is ridic, sold their souls to jrat. Isnt this his last term anyway?? Graham is no angel but what jrat did to him over some bs camera, that the hunchback had installed, is sick. Shut this whole shitshow down.
They’re also the ones who brought the clown, aka Murray, into fop.
Start with the walking corpses like harold brown and his ilk
They were stealing and cheating as well.
Thank goodness the Fop contract is online. Try contracting the Fop for a contract booklet or to ask for clarification regarding something in the contract and discover very quickly that no one in the office has fully read the contract. They have no f-cking clue.
Mette was pulled in by the clown (Murray) who sold graham on having a big name. Mette, after serving time in prison gave the clown some street cred to fop. The clown used Mette.
Hey BJ, get off the blog or you’re gong to miss the cop murderer’s funeral.
Had Dennis McGuire been auditing the books, instead of turning his head none of this would be happening.
Backstabbich did with his lunch bill.
He sure did! Mette stood silent for 5 years and out of nowhere he filed charges against Jcat. Never had one discussion with the board his whole time. He never voted against John’s over spending. Only came forward when he decided that he wants to be next fop prez.
Hey BJ, you open the city books first.
Can we get some representation without ASKING for it? Can FOP just DO their job? PO’s get screwed weekly if not daily.
Backstabbitch thinks fr Perez is bugged.
How was the pizza?
Decertify the fop. They have been useless from the start. A fraternal org is fine but no way a bargaining union. Every fop crew is in it for themselves first always has been that way and will continue if they aren't disbanded
True statement. You helped create this clown.
Mental illness is alive and well in the FOP. They should have a wellness seminar just for the people who work there. Complete embarrassment.
Hey JBitch, enjoy the stress, keep looking over your shoulder, when you get to the joint keep your back to the wall.
Mette did not, and I repeat did not destroy FOP. JRat’s total abuse of power and aggressive influence over his mafia thinking cohorts is what destroyed FOP. Mette has a conscious and did the right thing. Mette’s rule!!
The Mob kills anyone caught wearing a wire. They kill any one THEY THINK is wearing a wire. This department MIGHT dump you for wearing a wire. Usually PROMOTE you for wearing a wire..CYNTHIA WHITE FOR EXAMPLE.
He’s never been the real deal. Always out for himself. Just a big mouth
What about piñata???? Won’t someone please think about piñata!!! SAVE PIÑATA!!!!
This should be happening to Stacy Davis Gates. The Chicago Teachers Union cesspool makes FOP look like a lemonade stand. C'mon Trump!
Yes
I hope all the retirees on the BOARD OF TRUSTEE know they can veto the move. But most just love the 800 a month to VOTE yes on everything.Keep in mind a few of the trustees are legal INCAPACITATED PERSONS. Add in the SECRET CAMERA I SLEEP ON MY MOMS SOFA ex president begging for power to be relevant. In the end member on hook for all lawyers...
What is 89/20?
Nope. This is how weak, fallen human being have acted throughout human history.
Mette’s biggest legacy is being a weakling and a rat.
He will be in EAP as soon as Graham finally retires. This is all planned.
Mette got used as a tool by Erin Jones, Pat Murray and Kevin Graham to try to take John down. And for what it’s worth, John may be a prick but the city hates him because he won’t back down. Graham was owned by Rahm and Donahue was owned by Daley.
Wake up and see the biggest picture.
FYI…Graham never got caught in a residency beef. He lived in a condo on the north side. They investigated him. His family can live wherever they want.
Greed will send you to hell
If not guilty he still should not be reimbursed. He can petition for his attorney fees to be paid by the prosecutor.
This has nothing to do with on duty police investigation or suit. Anyone on the board being investigated should be paying their own maternity fees, not us.
This is a DiSanti comment no doubt.
Want to get someone in there that will do the job? 2 options make the pay what a PO makes with a little bit of a bonus. Or hire a full time labor lawyer cut a bunch of the nonsense inside spots. He runs the union but needs a majority vote to make any decisions.
Stand Tall Mike. You're a Man not easily defeated. Your heart is in the right place.
As Ive always said when I was on the job. We own 50% of how the city treats us because we dont stand together. It always amazed me how certain people could be bought. When I couldn't be bought that dickhead meeler integrity checked the shit out of me. But... I always did the right thing.
EAP is a fucking joke. Seek help outside of the department. Its safer
Oustanding. I applaud Mette!! Got your 6 Mike
Fatstabitch and Mcguire should also be charged
Well now we know why Catanzara was so obsessed with Kevin Graham's camera!! Can you imagine what would be on those videos?! 🤔
So if I get all this right. John spent about $700 over his allowed limit without board approval on a painting for the national FOP. Did he not reimburse the acct or use the painting at his own home? I think there’s more nonsense being pushed by people who only want to see John out. I get the Mette thing, why keep someone around if you can’t trust them. Mike and John could/should have figured this out without bringing this to everyone’s attention.
graham was voted in beating Dean Angelo. we had high hopes for Graham but soon realized he did not have a spine nor any leadership skills. (basicially a pussy). because he was so incompetent, it caused those on that board to splinter into groups and attempt to push several voices in different directions. It was a mess. Election time came, few wanted Graham back which split the vote. Since JCAT was in call back and on the medical he was free to go to roll calls and preach his gospel. no one stopped him. He got his message out. He sounded great. "Hey this guy will fight for us". By all accounts anyone with any sense will tell you he was the best choice. Graham sucked, Prieb sucked, It was done. Jcat had gone all in on the election squatting in his foreclosed condo and won. a star was born. he portrayed himself as a fighter of unjust persecution as the city had suspended him many times put him through a few police board cases and was ready to be general Patton and lead the fight. What some of us knew and what most of you younger guys and gals dont is that Jcat is a FRAUD. He was a bad Police Officer, lied cheated, scammed and stole anything he could to benefit himself because he felt the city owed it to him. 700 days on the medical from 1995-2005. I think JCAT started out pretty good, as Mette will tell you, he has done some good things for Lodge 7. However, as with any narcissist, when things dont go as you want them to go. you start to fight instead of negotiate, you character assassinate, instead of talking and you burn bridges. then you surround yourself with those who continue to hold your water. He pushed out the womens auxiliary, and alot of others over the last 5 years. He bagan to believe his own bull shit. It starts with a meal, then a bottle of booze, then a 100 here and a thousand there, then 10,000 from the state lodge to run for National president which never happened and didnt return the money. Lodge 7 gave him money too which weas not returned. Now your pocketing 9000 in cruise money, buying 10,000 dollar paintings buying trucks all through raising the dues of members and not re-imbursing the Lodge because no one is challenging you at the regular meetings. Now the storm has hit the Lodge. All those that backed Jcat and encouraged this will pay a price even though most will say "i had nothing to do with it". "i never backed this guy" BS. those that will pay the hardest price will be the membership who are on the street day after day who pay their inflated dues, who come to the FOP for guidance and protection when the city comes after them. Our reputation will be damaged. I personally dont blame anyone who voted for Jcat the first time. Only time will tell how deep this goes and how much damage has been done.
The only one worth a damn over at FOP is Danny G.
Sad to see what’s happened to the “leadership” that’s supposed to look out for us.
In the end, they always seem to sell out towards the end.
I think if you put up reputations, Mette's reputation far exceeds Jcat. this is not about Mette. Its about John stealing.
You obviously didn't know John. This has always been John. He didn't change, he just got caught.
I wonder if part of the investigation has anything to do with shady political campaign donations. Especially the one involving a certain detective’s campaign for senator on the Northside.
No cells in Taylorville dorms only he was a total jag bag while incarcerated claiming he got bad counsel and was innocent
Tell you what I have zero confidence in this union and want to get the fucking teamsters or someone that knows what they are doing involved in taking this over. We’ve shown over and over that coppers can’t be responsible enough to handle this thing unfortunately and I think it’s time my money went elsewhere in order to make sure the city takes us seriously for once instead of my money going to a gambling degen. Time for change folks.
Whistle blower protections Mike is going to get paid $$$$$$$$$
I just got the Lodge 7 newsletter. It’s full of Catanzra propaganda
He is exactly who everyone thought he was who didn’t vote for him either time. Cops are dumb.
Mette was on Grahams ticket years ago and became Sgt. at Arms, that's how. Never trust anyone associated with hidden camera Graham.
When could he have been great for us?
Why should they ALL be fired?
WE elected them!
Then VOTE SMARTER!
STOP voting someone in because “they’re a good cop”.
Vote them in because they actually know a little about contractual rights. Vote for a treasurer that can actually make money and has a good understanding about finances. Not some “good cop” that can work his calculator on his phone.
Then again, these types of cops need to run for the office.
Interesting bit of info from an insider… Duckhorn, who was handpicked by Gorman to be on the 3 person panel to hear JCats charges not only recused himself from that role, HE RECUSED HIMSELF FROM HIS ELECTED TRUSTEE POSITION ALTOGETHER. This was in addition to last month’s board meeting where he abstained from voting on how deep to look into the finances. There’s gotta be a very good reason he’s walking away from the trough he’s been hitting for years at $800/month to do pretty much nothing. He was reportedly overheard stating something along the lines of “I had no choice, I’m too old to go to jail” in a sidebar discussion upon exiting (voices carry in that courtyard, Daddy Duck… learn to use your inside voice). FOP is slowing imploding and the rats are starting to jump ship to save themselves. We’ll have to wait to see exactly who all talked to whoever is doing the investigation. Funny how the old timers seem to be the ones most nervous (right, Rick King?) when they’re always the ones always talking smack about “fuck the Feds, you ain’t gotta tell them shit” etc etc.
“Stand tall?” Ha. He’s a rat and he was easily manipulated into back stabbing his partner. And you want that guy near the top?
Stfu John, be a good side piece and make Kenyatta some dinner.
Gorman is a saint and works his ass off. That’s a fact.
Can we fire them all for letting that asshole spend freely because all of his expenditures were approved by the board
ya you're right, he only put 9000 in his pocket only 9000 over what he should. not that bad. no big deal. 10,000 for FOP National?? only 10,000 over what he should have. No big deal at all. meanwhile our dues have doubled. Fuck YOU!
all of us need to take note. no matter how bad the city fucks us, don't ever give a broke gypsy money and power again. this will always be the result.
Mike Shields can right the ship next election.
Harold got up to walk out and became visibly upset about Rick saying you get 5 years for lying to the feds because Harold lied to them when he was called down last week.
Look at all the minutes. Who voted No and who voted Yes. That tells the whole story.
Another shitshow here:
https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/cpd-officer-gun-goes-off-unintentionally-near-west-side-police-station/
Brian Richards is a huge JCat fanboy!
Oh Dave, you know it's much more than that. Did John have you hold the $9,600 he pocketed from the dinner cruise he had in Miami. Didn't you go with him to pick up all the cash he had Dennis McGuire wire him. John has been living a ridiculous lifestyle on our dues and he can rot behind bars for all we care.
Gorman was in on it the entire time. Him and John plotted to pack his bs committee with John sympathizers. Gordon is just as guilty.
Best comment yet. The chickens have come home to roost.
It always is
I voted for J-Cat because Littlefoot didn't like him. That was enough for me. But I only voted him in for one term. No politician/grifter in this state gets a second term. Understand now?
Maybe if Donald Trump ran for mayor of Chicago, I would vote him in a second time.
I have a copy of a to from authored by JCat from when he was in 018. In it who rats out coworkers who are treated better (early ducks etc) than he was. It shows what his true character is all about. It’s all about him. Which should be interesting when the feds start tightening the screws to him. He’ll surely give up all the others robbing us blind.
Enough with the innuendos. We are not playing that game.
I stand w Cat. He should take a leave of absence for 30 days and we'll test drive Gorman as President for 30 days. Gorman will have to get help with the grievances from Jimmy Jack. Step up Jimmy Jack we need you to put in 16 hour days for 30 days.
When the investigation is done. Then Cat can either come back or not depending on the outcome.
First to talk first to walk
Just a little reminder that 1 dollar or 10000 dollars that’s our money not John’s!
Pizza gate!!!
John Catanzara has total control of this Board . He in the past five years has been all over this country on the members dime . Anything that John wanted he had access to . He’s lied to the Board and the general membership . Pigs get fat and liars get slaughtered !
John probably pawned it
FOP’s always been a Shitshow
Whoever keeps posting all these comments about Pat Murray being some kind of mastermind behind all of this, must be drunk. First of all the people you keep trying to associate him with, wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire and secondly, Pat couldn't coordinate his clothes let alone a federal investigation, but nice try. Could it be that John and his minions are lying thieves who have been using the members for their own selfish needs? Oh no, it must be some complex plot by a simpleton, that makes way more sense.
So John and his cult keep claiming that all this drama is nothing but rumors started by people who want his position, yet our dues need to fund a lawyer to defend us from these rumors? This guy has completely lost his mind and anyone that still supports him can pay my share of dues.
🎵 ohhhh saaaayyyy cannnnnnn youuuuuu seeeeeee, byyyyyyy theeeeeee daaaawnnnnnnssss eaaaaaarlyyyyy raaaaaaaiiiiiidddddd, ooooooeeeerrrr the raaaaaaamminggg thhhheeee dooooooorrrr cuuzzz yaaa scaaaaammmed PPP 🎵
100k wasted on someone who would never win.
There is no contact. They lied to you.
Danny is more approachable. He’s 30% better, but he still stood by and watched the B.S.
Agreed.
Jackassbitch karma! You loud mouth P.O.S.
Mette is no victim.
JCat should no longer be Pres. He is retired. IMHO. People need to organize and get a strong team together and get back to basics. Nolan was an authoritarian Pres and the Citywide team formed and swept the election. There was accountability to the membership. Say what you want about the CWT, they had some problems, but order was restored and finances were straightened out.
Not a cop. I’ve met JC numerous times and I’m astonished that people actually voted for him to be their representative. I knew immediately that he was a slime ball. How do people not see this?
This will now be the second time John is given legal representation when it wasn’t warranted. First time was the Eddie Johnson fiasco that caused him to resign….John packed the committee with his cult members who only showed up for that vote….This time around is worse but John has a good line of bs he fed the board about being for the lodge best interest….its for John’s best interest…someone on that board make a motion to reconsider and make him pay for his own defense.
This "union" has no power until Mayor Jane Byrne gave us the contract otherwise, we probably wouldn't have one.
The old saying goes: Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely!
When the F.O.P. (a fraternal organization) won the "right to represent" the rank & file, the presidents were all given Captain's pay and a promise for a nice position in the department once his term was over. They lost their way about what they promised to do for us. Each one sold us out, the "Chicago Way". Sadly, the leadership of the F.O.P. is a reflection of the city rulers, nothing more. Basically, giving false hope to the members only to sell them out. I hope there is a forensic audit of the books, and you all find out the truth. Whether the Feds get involved or not, truth is where you can take action.
Actually, there were a few really good reps that handled officer involved shootings in my time. I had a lot of respect for them. After retirement there was no need for the clown show on Washington.
Just my very old and humble opinion.
Trust me, TEAMSTERS are NO better and they are just as bad at taking your money and get nothing in return...been there done it!! Forget Teamsters!
💯 Or Simply obtain a Union that’s not connected to FOP to avoid under table deals with the Mayor 🤑🫢🤔🧐
If by the “real deal0 you mean a loudmouth blowhard, why, yes, you are correct.
This is the second camera comment I've seen. It's crazy that someone is gonna act like somebody installing a secret camera in your office isn't a big deal. You can't be fucking serious.
What are the nitwits Rob and Monica gonna do? Rob is so far up johns ass he has no sense of reality. And Monica is as slow as the day is long.
Greg? Is that you? Bella knows all about the camera.
Correct
Well said
Ask Bella
When city stickers were sold out the aldermen’s office for two months every summer Donahue’s kids always had a summer job. Did your kids get those jobs? Donahue always was working an angle for him self. 15 years ago he made 209k and it’s on the 990 tax form. Erin Jones please take a look at that in your spare time!
As you can see all of john's minions are trying to defame mette now. This is how deep the corruption is there. I see an iceberg with the titanic headed straightforward.
This is about Mette not bringing the issues up during weekly field rep meetings, board meetings, or even general meetings. Mette stayed quiet and spent ungodly amounts of money on trips with JCat and separately.
Harold Brown and his RCPA should also be investigated and audited. This man is no saint. Him and Hauser should share a cell.
He'll forget to turn his nomination in on time, so no worries there.
Oh yea!?? and where was everybody else? you all took the same oath of office right? You couldnt speak to the G because you couldnt get John's balls out of your mouth to talk. you all talk. you all saw it. your on the board for crysake. you knew. any of you could have stepped up. you did not.
Danny Gorman for President!
Guns don't go off intentionally. The Officer was being unsafe or dumb. Kinda like when ES cuffed himself to a steering wheel while working a security job and had to call for help.
Mette literally went to prison for cracking a kid's jaw. How can John defame him? Seriously?
He sleeps with a JCat blowup doll.
Such a disgrace.
All of life is that two edged sword, dual edged blade, with one side cutting to benefit and the other to detriment.
The negotiating standing of the bargaining unit, FOP, being the benefit side, the handful of a few authorized to negotiate being the detriment of politicians' influences and control.
That was, most plausibly, the politicians' intent.
An intrinsic tug of the rope equation, with the chosen few FOP leadership being the rope.
Fraternal members pull to their benefit, the politicians', aka employer, pull to their benefit.
It takes a pretty strong rope to not be stretched and, even if rope is a chain, there is always gonna be a weaker link, or two.
The strength and resolve of the membership becomes moot when the rope stretches to the benefit side of the pulling, aka, the politicians/employer.
It's the ways of the humans.
"not a cop", a kin to 'not a fed', not so distant cousin to 'diddin' do nuffin's'.
The obvious: your "not" profession will be known within the nature/content of your comment.
The initial clue is, though, funny.
Could've been to put TC in. He's been up John and Coz's ass just shy of two years now
Rick is getting nervous because he's got some questionable dips in the cookie jar as well.
Between him and Bob, nitwit won hands down
That was funny, even given I had to clean my glasses several times to be sure it wasn't the pixie dust coating them that caused me to see what I was seeing.
C.C. run for some office and was also given money. But John put her on many committee's
Danny picked the persons to
Be on the audit committee. All John sick holes. I lost respect for him after that
So will another side piece be made field rep now?
Off topic. For certain consent decree training we are required to wear conservative attire. No shorts, no crocs, etc. In what fucking ghetto universe is it ok to wear a fucking doo rag to training and show up late? Please enlighten me where it is acceptable to show up to constitutional policing in a fuck doo rag. The claims of it being an ethnic or black thing is bullshit. It thats acceptable I'm wearing my red baseball cap. See how fast they pull me.
Who says they won't
Wasn't she the one who took down an Alderman with a foia? I remember she helped a lot of cops with that. John's got no one to blame but himself for this.
The same Danny that approved all his spending? The same Danny that was nothing but a rubber stamp to his ridiculous policies? The same Danny who accompanied him on these expensive dinners and trips? Yeah, he's a real prince.
Wait if jrat “stepped down”, and he fired Mike, who is acting President???
Duckhorn, King and Trevino have all long been suspected of being wired-up and recording board meetings for the past 2 to 3 years. And not the amateur method of recording like Jim Moriarty did during a board meeting when Shields was president. Duckhorn distancing himself from the Catanzara Cabal is starting to make sense now that all the pieces are slowing coming together.
Omg. Gorman will run the FOP. Im lolling. Dan is incapable. Maybe the weakest up there.
80/20 fat fingers this close to pension.
Regardless, Graham was soft. We all know the game, condo for residency and "weekend" outside. He's a violator who refused to challenge the policy, which had a very good chance of getting dumped. Sell out hamburglar
I’d like to have the money that some of the previous crews who worked for the Fop . They were secret 🤫 about what they stole .
They made it with kickbacks from bad attorneys and health insurance steering retired members to it even when it may not be the best insurance .
Now comes Big John “ the voice “ we need. He has
No respect for anything or anyone . He surrounds himself with real geniuses “ Fucko “ where is my vodka ? , No see duh 🙄 Ive seen people scalped with better haircuts , Fatsavitch , Jimmy Jack the Fred Flintstone lookalike mentored by GB , you know let’s have some pasta , take and dump and don’t wash your hands , Mike Garza ; not enough words to describe this credent , Pinocchio who lies more than John , what an utter conglomeration of misfits . Hey Joey Bats 🦇 you look good in orange , Harold , Ronnie “ burglar in Florida “ , Duck ; he ducks the check , and finally Monica and piñata . No respect when John called her his side piece .
John let me save the Lodge some money . 1.) You are the target of the investigation ; 2.) the scope is probably local , state and national laws you violated ;3.) you will find out when you have cuffs on and good luck trying your best to blame others .
The sad part is the majority of this membership believed in you .
They actually thought someone who has had multiple police
Board cases could solve their problems . The fact of the matter is this guy couldn’t help himself . John has some really psychological issues which has stunted his development and being President and for the first time having access to money became his downfall .
He’s gonna have many years to reflect on what happened and all these people who voted for him will say “ who voted for this guy ?” Look on the mirror and say “ I did !”
Pat and Bob are guilty of working their asses off. Put heart and soul into it. Kevin was suspicious of everyone. EVERYONE. He fuhked up and Marty had to run. Marty knows a ton of shit and had connections. Kevin hated that. Kevin would not promise to keep the same team and that ruined him and divided that admin. Kevin thought Pat and Bob and Rich were below him. That was his downfall. Barlett should have run for President instead of Marty. Kevin literally screwed himself and his old team over. What a shame.
Hey Greg , you and them dimwits who decided to back Catanzara’s and his followers lack the ability to help others . You are so used to sticking your paw out for whatever you can glom it’s an embarrassment . You’re a failure in life and only seek to cause havoc . Go to your retreat in Michigan , start a fire 🔥 , burp , fart and reflect on how
Miserable you are !
He’ll start so much shit in jail, he will need to be put in the hole.
When John Boy Was Working In 008 District When He Was
Not On The Medical, He Was
Hated By Every Boss And Old
Timers That Saw Thur His
Bullshit, But The Kids Thought
His Shit Didn’t Stink. Well The
Old Timer Are Gone And You
Kids Got Your Badass Big Mouth Union Boss. How’s
That Working For You Now?
Try to keep up - Mark Donahue made Deputy Chiefs pay and his Field Reps made District Commanders pay. Dean Angelo lowered the pay scale down one pay grade for everyone. Today’s Field Reps are getting Captains pay.
Gorman sucks.
You think graham's camera was "BS"? Are you JCAT's fluffer?
They don't get PO pay so that they aren't susceptible to bribes from the city.
Just like a 143A, if you find one, look for a second or even third one.
That's hardly a "shitshow" compared to what's happening with our union.
Did we find out why Jcat was not diligent into looking into officer Krystal Rivera murder?💔🙏
Where is Fernando F. and his loud mouth when we need a voice?
From the looks of it, the members are defaming John, Mette, Jak and Dennis equally. So stop it!
Who’s in John’s cult?
Pat is a true clown. He did nothing while assigned to 001 or the Fop. Don’t bring this idiot back.
Gorman isn’t strong enough to lead the lodge no more than a week. Leading the lodge takes balls. Danny is too nice. He won’t set boundaries with the vultures.
It’s the same way the Democrats put Kamala and Waltz up to lead the Country. The blind leading blind while drinking their own koolaid.
They can’t retaliate against you, you’re a whistleblower.
its that "privilege" thang dont ya know, uh huh
I've never worn anything but jeans, t-shirt and baseball hat to training. Stop crying nerd.
Maybe the next one can dance.
This above post should be cleaned up by Second City and posted for perpetuity on the top of the daily content.
Everything this copper posted is fact. John was the only man that was worth electing the first time. Those that knew him from 008, knew it was only a matter of time before John became John again and thought everyone was out to get him. Everyone else is the problem, not him. We knew better than to elect him a second time and tried to tell anyone that would listen.
The Eight Balls will never forget what he did to "Bronco."
"Someone" put a beef on Bronco for posting the list of guys who volunteered to work special on the day we were all supposed to stand down in an effort to show the city we had power and solidarity- like a UNION.
He took a 30 day hit (I believe) because of that "someone" who was embarrassed for being outed. We had a watch party for him to raise back the money he lost and that was one hell of a turnout! He deserved it because as our union rep. he was standing up for us Patrolmen. Thats what leaders of men do.
So much for being all about the brotherhood and solidarity. It has always been about you.
P.S. Don't think that we forgot about you Mr. 008 baldy, DUI sandbagger cop. We saw your name on that list too.
I will never forget that emergency meeting when Donahue had the dog and pony show to forgive the city debt. I believe it was Daley's nephew Vanecko who squandered away the money on some bullshit Canadian company.
It would be Mette he was fired as a field Rep.
The bottomless pit never ceases to produce.
