Rats Abandoning Ship?

You can tell a failed administration by the number of people leaving high positions.

For example, Conehead's people:

  • City Budget Director Annette Guzman resigned;
    Larritorious Snelling retired;
    CFO Jill Jaworski left;
    CFO Steven Mahr left;
    Deputy CFO Noor Shaikh left;
    Human Resources Dir. Sandra Blakemore left;
    Fleet and Facility Management’s Julia Hernandez-Tomlin left;
    Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Dorian Gatewood fired;
    Manny Whitfield-Director of Violence Prevention and Community Safety also fired.

A whole bunch of financial and money people in the mix. What do they know that isn't being said....or reported....by those "watchdogs" in the media?

There is no money for your pension, but billions for a new soccer stadium, guaranteed income for ghettoians, free rides for whales that blew out their lungs smoking weed, migrant sex changes, and on and on.

Everyone is getting OUT ! Michael Mc Muray the commissioner of Aviation is resigning from his 350 thousand dollar a year job. Mike has spent the last 6 months traveling the country on the city dime promoting himself as the best black man for the job. Or is he getting out before the class action LAW suit comes out against the City and Jacobs the contractor hired to Run the new terminal construction , Seems several employees have retained a very powerful law firm to go after them for sexual harassment ,racial discrimination, and bulling. Could this be the beginning to the end of Blow Job Branden???

Knock knock 5 AM you’re still in your pajamas what are all those bright lights in front of my house shining in? Better answer the door let’s see who it is. Oh no what is that noise over my house sounds like a helicopter. Shining lights into my bedroom open the door because they’re coming in why is that guy standing in front with handcuffs and a gun gotta go now. Loudspeaker is going on. My neighbors are coming out. They’re ordering me to open the door.

Well.....they know for sure that come the election they will suddenly be out of a job as they are at least smart enough to hear the voters. So instead of being behind the eightball they are getting ahead of it. In life there are some things that are guaranteed and some people on the Mayors staff realize its guaranteed he's not getting re-elected.

Crain's Chicago Business and the Wall Street Journal have run editorials encouraging the city to file for chapter 9 bankruptcy citing how our position is much worse than Detroit was when they did. Of course our local media ignored it.

Maybe they had a sudden surge of conscience and self awareness and could no longer work for an adfministration that could only exost on paper. Lets hope a few of them turn into whistle blowers. The first canary to sing to the feds gets the deal you know...hopefully some of them have saved some evidence.

Chicago cannot file for bankruptcy under current law. Laws can change over time, but there is zero talk of changing any laws.
Look it up.

nobody cares or feels sorry about 050. You guys act like police but don’t do shit. Bunch of slobs. I’ve traveled many places and cpd at the airport is the biggest joke. Orlando PD at the airport is a much different and better story. I don’t know if half the guys at 050 can walk a terminal without being winded.

04/26/23 - Ben Felton is named Chief of CPS Talent ($205k) and husband of the General Counsel (Chief) of CPS Law Ruchi Verma ($252K). Both were combined to make $457K. But no nepotism. Why? Verma was on the CPS Ethics Committee, and her underling Jennifer Chan found no issue.

The bankruptcy will happen if the Illinois constitutional convention does not result in pension changes. So figure 2030-32 a Chicago bankruptcy is DEFINITE.

.Entry-level firefighters must pass the Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT), annual fitness testing for active, uniformed personnel—such as the voluntary Physical Fitness Incentive Program—is strictly optional and off-duty, rather than a mandatory requirement for executive leadership.
