* Everyone looks overjoyed to be there…
Enjoyed spending the evening with the Illinois Legislative Latinx Caucus in Little Village. Our Latinx community is a vital and vibrant part of what makes Chicago great, and it was a joy to be with these fantastic public servants. pic.twitter.com/qazRKziveh

Her loving is so powerful, huh
It’s simply unavoidable
The trend irreversible
The woman is invincible
She’s a natural law, and she leaves me in awe
She deserves the applause, I surrender because
She used to look good to me, but now I find her
Simply irresistible
(She’s so fine, there’s no tellin’ where the money went)
Simply irresistible
(She’s all mine, there’s no other way to go)
