So...Barb? Or Fred?

Special Ed suffered an episode yesterday. The stories were running fast and furious before settling on a reaction to heart medications. But then it was revealed he was on the kidney transplant list:
  • Chicago Police Supt. Eddie Johnson on Friday confirmed he is on the waiting list for a kidney transplant.

    The operation, not yet scheduled, would require him to be off work for three to five weeks, Johnson said. His need for a kidney transplant was first reported by the Sun-Times.

    “I do not require dialysis, nor do I have diabetes,” Johnson said, adding that until he gets the transplant, “with the blessing of my doctors,” he will stay on the job.
It's been obvious for months that Special Ed isn't actually running the Department - Rahm is, despite all of Ed's protestations to the contrary. Ed is the accidental superintendent. He never applied for the job and was put in to appease a certain voting block. And he's been miserable ever since - endless protests, being forced to consort with Jamal, the DOJ report, the cheating scandal being used to control him, health issues, and pretty much taking the fall for Rahm's inability to run a police department. This is the perfect opportunity for him to "resign" for health reasons and walk away.

So who does Rahm pick next? The aldercreatures are going to demand another black supernintendo, seeing as how there were three white guys in a row. Rahm needs to pander for a while yet.So who's up? Rahm wants to be a pioneer. That points at Barb West. She's run a few different districts, served at all levels of IAD, Bureau Chief, and her most recent bureau absorbed the bullshit spot that was created for Granny Clampett. She's tied in with the west side reverends and Jason Ervin, so she's got the political pedigree.

On the other hand, there's Fred Waller. The same sort of district command history, Bureau stuff, a general reputation as capable, but wired-in hard. If we recall, he was a lieutenant for all of six weeks or so before being rocketed up to Commander and it's been smooth sailing since.

In the meantime, while Special Ed is a convenient target for our pointed criticisms of the Department, we will send our wishes for a speedy recovery.

I heard that Rahm once had an asshole transplant. Soon after, the asshole rejected him.

Did anyone else notice his fiancé nakia fenner was nowhere to be found.
What type of woman would not be seen supporting her man in a time of need?

HELLO fenner we know your reading this msg. Is the honey moon over? Or has Ed been ordered to distance himself from you?

Get well fast Ed. I don't like or respect you but I don't wish sickness on anyone.

The ironic thing about Special Ed needing a kidney is that his chances of getting one are better now because of his work as superintendent. The carnage in Chicago may provide him with a multitude of suitable replacement kidneys from the recently deceased gangbangers. I don't think he was smart enough to plan it that way, but either way, well played.

However, entertain yourselves with this scenario. What if some one whispered to him that indictments are coming for the Lts fiasco and many people would need to be removed. Also the grand jury is still out on the video, and special ed did sign off on it. Maybe some white shirts are finally gonna go down with the ship and he didnt want to be one of them. Karma, she is a bitch, be careful because she slaps back. Either way its just food for thought. As long as jones doesnt get bumped up, who cares, in the end they are all just mouthpieces and the puppet master has nine fingers to use.

Sorry SCC. He will go with Chief Staples. Fits another constituency and gives him a "first." He's requested her to be in meetings where her presence is not required.

You need someone with balls, like Sheriff Clark, to run the show in Chicago. Someone to tell Rahm and the Jamals and Revs to stick it up their ass and run the department without interference. Rahm is so arrogant and think he knows everything. He wants puppets, not leaders. With that skewed mentality and his own lack of management skills, he has failed terribly. Too bad the idiot voters in this city don't see that.

Proves Ed is nothing but a political prop for Rahm pandering to the African American voters. Ed is a sick man that needs to retire and get well. I wish they kept him at Christ for 5 days for a full work up. I wish him a speedy recovery. Rahm ran him into the ground; simple as that. Yes...agreed...Waller is a very logical choice. I think Ron Holt is also on the short list. He'd be fine, too. Barb West? No...not so much.

Doesn't look good this exert from the plan might help

You generally must use the money in an FSA within the plan year. But your employer may offer one of 2 options:

It can provide a "grace period" of up to 2 ½ extra months to use the money in your FSA.
It can allow you to carry over up to $500 per year to use in the following year.
Your employer can offer either one of these options but not both. It’s not required to offer either one.

At the end of the year or grace period, you lose any money left over in your FSA. So it's important to plan carefully and not put more money in your FSA than you think you'll spend within a year on things like copayments, coinsurance, drugs, and other allowed health care costs.

Despite the usual political nonsense of this city and the position of Supt. being just that a position "dog and pony show". I would like send my best wishes to Supt. Eddie Johnson. What struck me from watching that press conference is the look in Rahms face when the Supt. was being helped from falling to the ground and the camera men snapping away. Rahm is an evil mother Fucker his face and reaction says it all.

This job is hard on people, especially if you take the job seriously. I am retired and have seen the effects of being the police on many retired people, soon after leaving active policing. The health and emotional damage can be severe. I would encourage Johnson to retire now and save his health and his life. He would have a pension that most people can only dream about. I don't know the man, never worked with him or for him. I can surmise that he is a political puppet taking his marching orders from City Hall, but, hell, that went for all the superintendents. But, he seems likable and sincere. Qualified and competent? Well I will leave that to the active officers to decide. Retire now Johnson and save you life.

Neither of them - West or Fred- will be able to stop the ghetto blasters. It's their way of life. Period. The police can't be the police anymore, they don't want it, the libs and snowfkes despise it and the dummycrats don't want it because of the voting bloc. It's a losing situation.

OT- A new study from the above government agencies show what states have increased population and which states have lost people. The state with the most people gone, West Virginia (much possibly from the past major flooding). And in the second spot, yep, good old State of Illinois.
I know this doesn't surprise most of us, but will we see the rags like the Fibune, ScumTimes, or maybe Crain's Business pick up this information? I think not!!!!

Good riddance, a roll of the diversity dice and two jumps backwards, another failure candidate was already on contingent.
Rahm's next move will choose from the Latin quarter where the sanctuary votes are relevant, but whoever can outright loudly blame the racist police will get Rahm's attention.

BTW: Are they seeking a kidney from the List or will it be Merit Selection?

The schedule isn't contractual, if you can find me in the contract where it lists the start times show it. They are set by management and labor affairs. The 10 hour schedule is so "dreaded" that I'm enjoying day two of my 4 day weekend. And in a few months I'll be enjoying my 12 day Bantu furlough when I take it between my 4 day weekends. The 4 and 2 schedule sucks, 2 days off sucks, you're off two but still working 5 days in a week.

I’ve known Sesso for a long time and have crossed paths with him in many different places throughout the years. He may not be the most personable guy around or buddies with everyone on the watch but he is a smart hard worker. I have seen him many times help out guys and make sure they don’t get themselves in trouble with stupid shit. He expects people to do their jobs, which many are not doing these days. He is a supervisor, its his job to make sure the job gets done. Maybe if people would get their faces away from their phones and candycrush and take pride in doing a good job he wouldn't have to "tow the company line". Too many coppers either don’t know what they are doing and or are afraid to do anything. Know the law, know the orders. Know what you can and are justified in doing. Yeah we can’t pull up and sweep a corner anymore but we can still be the police. You just need to know how to articulate and justify what you do, and understand we are constantly being watched. In my 20+ years it is usually the dogs or idiots doing most of the complaining. And yes Sesso worked at the academy for a while, and while he was there he tried to make changes and improve the academy. Some stuff is beyond the control of a Sgt or Lt.

First Point:

You are SEIU and I suggest you get behind the fact the UNION wants you armed. If you don't want to carry a Firearm as a LEO, don't be a State Certified LEO. Go back to whatever job you had before your Clout got you into APD.

Second Point: I agree that some of you in the APD are strokes that should never have been oTJ in whatever department they came from.

Third point: For 10 Codes, Google is your friend. Stop hiding around Air Side and do some research when you are not running and hiding from an event that requires a GUN to Protect the Citizens.

Fourth Point: you have a Job that will replace your bullet proof vest for no cost at end of life date. If you are wearing gear to protect you when you get shot at, why wouldn't you want the gear to return fire? Your family responsibilities have NOTHING to do with what you do at work or what you are required to do at work. Get a clue dude.

For that matter, dig into the backgrounds and follow the cases. No no no, you're going after sensationalism and the same bullshit liberal stories about the police being all corrupt and racist. Go after corrupt media, leftist news organizations, criminals and shady defense attorneys, them we'll talk. Til then, fuck you snowflake.

hate to tell ya but eddie isnt going anywhere. his plan is to keep the supt job for at least 2 years then retire. hes got another year left. I can see him leaving in feb of next year. that way he will be able to get out before summer and retire and it will give the dept enough time to get a new sup and transition in before the summer killing fields open up.

The schedule isn't contractual, if you can find me in the contract where it lists the start times show it. They are set by management and labor affairs. The 10 hour schedule is so "dreaded" that I'm enjoying day two of my 4 day weekend. And in a few months I'll be enjoying my 12 day Bantu furlough when I take it between my 4 day weekends. The 4 and 2 schedule sucks, 2 days off sucks, you're off two but still working 5 days in a week.



^^^^^^^^says the guy who probably works a unit and gets the duck everyday. That schedule is dog shit for patrol. Sorry. 4-2 is much better.

Just my 2 cents, but I think Rahm will look outside the Department again. If he's embracing the DOJ report which basically bashes our entire department and alludes to the fact that bosses did little or nothing to right the sinking ship, then how can he make someone from our culture the next Supt.? Perhaps an insider will be easier to control; granted. But it's all show and tell and the Mayor really doesn't care who we'd like to see as our leader. Look for some major changes in March.

Let's address the real problem, Roussell ! He makes every major decision and reports right to rahm. He needs to leave and enjoy his life and stop coming up with ideas from a Bazooka joe wrapper. He is a nice man but eddy was a nice man who has completely lost his mind. Get rid of the old garb and let Cpd run Cpd. We're gonna get critiqued and ridiculed anyway might as well let the police run the police department.

I will repeat this. Eddie ain't shit without Robbie, Fred ain't shit without Jenkins. I will give them a little credit for actually "working" a few years ago, however, they are well over done.

I have been a proud Aviation Officer assigned to O'Hare Airport for over a decade and would like to take a second to address my friends at C.P.D. and our current Aviation COMMISIONER REDDING about the FALSE belief that the majority of our Dept wish to be armed. As an ADULT with family responsibilities and dependent on my current income I'd like to express the reality that the MAJORITY of our dept has no interest whatsoever in being armed. To sit through our roll calls and hear the same core group of imbeciles constantly bad mouthing the C.P.D. and telling "War Stories" of the 10-50 they handled as a part time suburban law enforcement officer or the 10-10 the night before is symptamatic of the same immature, delusional and boorish behavior that caused them to be rejected by C.P.D. in the first place. To work hands on and assist the majority of the great guys at C.P.D. ,(and be paid handsomely,) has been a great experience and one I wish to continue. To hear a complete idiot with a Mohawk or a nitwit with a Ten Code license plate bad mouth hard working guys at the end of their 30 year career is just plain childish,wrong and very disrespectful. To my many friends at C.P. D. I can't express my thanks for behaving as adults and keeping the traveling public safe in these very dangerous times. By the way what is a 10-50 or 10-10 and just maybe try getting a life instead of more tattoos.

nothing to do w/the 011th district...so don't read this
what is up with 011? seriously-go from mother fucker jones to the guy who brought the dreaded 10 hour day to 5, and then they ask for a vote without union notification or involvement on a 10 hour day with 3 watches? Is it a coincidence Sesso from the academy comes in at the same time as the Captain? I wonder at what rank they teach there is no such thing as a contract or collective bargaining that they have to abide by.

First Point:

You are SEIU and I suggest you get behind the fact the UNION wants you armed. If you don't want to carry a Firearm as a LEO, don't be a State Certified LEO. Go back to whatever job you had before your Clout got you into APD.

Second Point: I agree that some of you in the APD are strokes that should never have been oTJ in whatever department they came from.

Third point: For 10 Codes, Google is your friend. Stop hiding around Air Side and do some research when you are not running and hiding from an event that requires a GUN to Protect the Citizens.

Fourth Point: you have a Job that will replace your bullet proof vest for no cost at end of life date. If you are wearing gear to protect you when you get shot at, why wouldn't you want the gear to return fire? Your family responsibilities have NOTHING to do with what you do at work or what you are required to do at work. Get a clue dude.


Best regards you nitwit.

Eddie might not be going anywhere. After Eddie gets his transplant he has to take his anti-rejection medications, $$$$$$. The first year of the transplant is the most demanding, constant tests checking for compatibility and rejection. Depending on what his financial position is, the transplant, medications and constant testing isn't fully covered by our insurance. He just might have to stay on for the insurance coverage vs the insurance he will receive after retirement.

Hey Aviation Cop, sounds like you have your shit together, but frankly you guys are there because our union-flop allowed our numbers to be depleted at the whim of a blow deputy puss head who promoted his underlings with no time on the job and the schemer who held the top spot before RAM took over.

Nothing against you personally but in these times both Airports, Mass Transit and the long disappeared Foot Men downtown need a revitalization and not with guys hanging on the job cause they don't want to listen to their wives bitching while sitting at home with the coffee and laptop, but with active eyes and feet ready to respond to the threat that thankfully has not reared it's ugly head in our city like it has in others.

Be safe and be armed, its the best thing since you have a badge and uniform.

It is very easy for people to say retire, but the truth is if you are a working copper and not a clock watching dogass who never did anything retiring really takes some thinking even if the job is changing, this job will certainly consume you and you need to takes car of yourself and enjoy your time away, work the OT if you need or want the money but not every day off. Retire when your mind tells you its time. I stayed until 63 and now 66, in good health and work a few part time things because I want to not have to.
