Chicago has fallen hard and fast, and we aren’t shedding any tears.
Just look at the image of a recent piece on Darren Bailey in contrast to Chicago’s cover on JB Pritzker.
Pritzker is portrayed as a competent lawmaker who could be a contender for the White House.
Bailey is depicted as some downstate yokel on a tractor desperately trying to win over Chicago voters.
Chicago became an engine to promote progressive politicians.

Chicago magazine’s demise was inevitable.
What was once a political gatekeeper that produced hard-hitting journalism swerved far left and became virtually unreadable.
Now, it has been reduced to a latte-town cultural footprint that produces the left-wing doom porn that progressives desperately crave.
That’s not a sustainable model for journalism.

Why not to vote for Stratton, part bazillion.
If you think consumers are struggling now, just think what will occur is Stratton has her way and gets a $25 minimum wage.
Economics 101: When wages rise, consumer prices increase.
Additionally, a jump in wages of this scale would devastate small businesses which employ part-time and low-skilled workers.
Stratton doesn’t understand any or this and she never will. She only speaks the language of a community activist.

I’m fighting for a $25 minimum wage because we deserve a livable wage, and not just the bare minimum.

Ice Ice Baby………
Federal agents operating in Bucktown (1627 North Western Ave.) nab another illegal off Chicago’s streets.
Deport. Them. All.

Many women around the Southside of Chicago are tired of the politicians who forget about them until it’s time for reelection and at this point they ignore many communities even during campaign season due to arrogance.
We have to start demanding ✅real plans, ✅real accountability and ✅REAL action for the Southside of Chicago.
Other congressmen are guiding investment to their districts, advocating for their constituents and taking the vision of their district to Capitol Hill with vigor.
Our congressman is NOT doing that. He lacks the energy and the focus to handle a district as diverse as this one.
We need someone who can lead a team of focused visionaries who create policy that GETS CD1!
That person is me, Christian Maxwell so I am asking for your vote on November 3, 2026.


Mayor Johnson: “I had a great ride from Logan Square to City Hall on the Blue Line.”
Yeah, we’re sure you did. You were surrounded by a phalanx of Chicago Police for the photo op.
The rest of us fear being robbed, assaulted, stabbed or set on fire.

I will believe CTA is safe when JB and the Mayor ride the Red Line at 9pm without security detail. “Acting CTA boss cites major drop in crime on transit system, credits collaboration with CPD – WGN-TV” apple.news/AGAJSmH0eSLaHSLB4…
