(FROM THE ARTICLE: A scary incident at a Heartland elementary school this week highlighted the growing concern about marijuana edibles and kids. School leaders in Sesser say a student shared cookies with several classmates that looked like a trusted brand, but turned out to be anything but. Most of us are familiar with Chips Ahoy cookies and their blue packaging. The school superintendent at Sesser-Valier said a child brought cookies from a very similar-looking bag to school Tuesday and shared them with nine classmates. It’s believed the cookies were actually laced with THC.)

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— Reporter William J. Kelly, banned from upscale Chicago hotel filled with migrants, clashes with management – Vivek Saxena
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/05/04/reporter-banned-from-upscale-chicago-hotel-filled-with-migrants-clashes-with-management-1355942/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to reporting by an independent journalist operating out of Chicago, the city appears to be housing huge numbers of migrants/illegal aliens in upscale hotels. On Tuesday, reporter William J. Kelly filmed himself entering the Inn of Chicago — an upscale hotel that reportedly charges $239 per night — to book a room, only to be turned away and told to leave as migrants shuffled past him into the hotel. “You can’t come in here. … It’s private. … It’s closed. … It’s closed for you,” the hotel’s management told him. “It’s a private area, so therefore it’s private. You’re not a resident here,” they added before calling 911 on him. As they spoke with him, migrants shuffled past him. Kelly tried speaking with some of them, but none of them appeared to know English. “This hotel, online it says that it’s closed, yet a tremendously large number of people are going in and out,” the reporter at one point remarked to the camera. That the city is now evidently housing migrants in upscale hotels isn’t necessarily shocking. New York City has been doing the same thing for quite some time now. . .Truth be told, what Chicago is currently experiencing is just a fraction of what border cities have had to deal with since the day Biden assumed office in 2021. That said, Chicago officials aren’t used to migrants flooding their city, so they’re having to put out all the stops to handle the current crisis. On Tuesday, for example, Fox News reported that the city has begun turning some of its police stations into migrant shelters. “Chicago police sources say that their stations have become shelters for migrants, with at least two police precinct lobbies housing asylum seekers. The sources [said] that migrants have been sleeping in the stations’ entryways. The immigrants, who do not have access to showers or adequate bathrooms, are often sick and vomiting,” according to Fox News. “While Chicago Police Department (CPD) sources said they sympathize with the migrants, the officials believe it shines a light on the nationwide immigration crisis. Chicago has been a ‘sanctuary city’ for more than five years,” Fox News reported. “This is a dangerous situation that arose from their ridiculous sanctuary city policy. They clearly do not have a plan to deal with it and they’re placing the cops once again in undue risk,” one source told the network. “A couple of weeks ago there was a Venezuelan family who is sitting on the floor next to homeless people with a baby. I gave them twenty bucks and I asked my team to give them money as well,” another source said. The sources are particularly worried that the migrants don’t realize just how dangerous the streets of Chicago happen to be. “Yesterday when I left, there was an eleven-year-old girl sitting on the floor by herself. I try to explain to them not to go outside because my station is in a very bad neighborhood,” one source said.)

Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are reparations. So far, I have paid millions of dollars in reparations. My Democrat superiors in the federal government used AA and DEI to make me pay reparations big time. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 when I was 20 years old. My Democrat IRS superiors never promoted me beyond GS-12. My Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, c) always ranked me in the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and d) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997. My Civil Service Retirement System pension is only 44% of what my GAO salary was in 1997 in today’s dollars and less than what my IRS salary was in 1972 in today’s dollars.
