City Club of Chicago is hosting a gun control promotion event this month with Don Harmon and Brendan Kelly among guests. Great to see law enforcement officials like Kelly show where they stand on the issues. CCOC has taken a hard left turn since they got raided by the FBI in May 2019.

Does it seem like trolls are particularly active this week?

To the post, enjoying the sun until another spate of rain (and enjoying not having to water the plants)

Yesterday, yes, the complaints about too high taxation. What made the comments “complaints” is they didn’t offer any cuts / solutions.
