Brendan Reilly is basically Paul Vallas if Paul Vallas sometimes got punched in the face and tossed out of bars.
NOTE: Brendan Reilly is running for Cook County Board President, meaning that he wants a lot of authority over the budget for the sheriff and the jail and the state's attorney and the public defender

But he won't even sign a statement in support of due process when his own colleague was attacked.

rev jackson joined the picket line with me and my union, the illinois nurses association, in 2020. he helped us and never asked for anything in return. without the pressure he put on the state on our behalf, i don’t think we get the victory we attained. may his memory be a blessing & rest in power.

i will go to an aew event just to yell “fuck ice” for two hours straight
This is exactly what you'd do if you wanted to make sure that wrestling fans chanted "Fuck ICE" throughout the hours of live wrestling you air in prime time every week.
Hmmm. Louder then.

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.
"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.

they are building concentration camps and you are helping them. they are killing protesters in the streets and you are helping them. they are eroding every single one of our rights and our democracy and you are helping them.

not just helping, you are doing this too.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.

We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.

Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

They're building concentration camps with my tax money Chuck. They're torturing children. They're murdering innocent people on the street. What are you doing.

"I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."
Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."
