Do folks remember how much pollution we had in the 1970's 👇
See Cuyahoga River in Ohio: That caught on fire at least a dozen times
Also no seat belts driving backwards in the station wagon...

If you were outraged by this👇
Then you must also be outraged & demand Platner leave the Senate race just as you called for R’s in the group chat to be fired.
#democrats be consistent
& @jenpsaki.msnbc.com own up that you were wrong supporting Planter just as you hold R’s accountable

As you should. Truly a good person. As is the Juliana Stratton, Lt Gov running for Durbin's senate seat.
& by the way this happened during a rally we were having for federal workers, including EPA staff who have been fired for speaking up & sharing what is happening in the agency.

This is South Shore Cultural Center👇. It is a personal fav of mine.
Formally segregated private country club, closed to Jews & African Americans.
City of Chicago bought it 1975 & renovated it & opened it to the community.

The South Shore of #Chicago is a neighborhood near Lake Michigan. This apartment building is ~1 mile from the South Shore Cultural Center & very close to the new Obama Library.
The day after the Fed's overnight raid, the investors were in court trying to acquire the building. 👇
