Their pay is $122,304 annually PLUS $122,000/YR. each in expenses. Total $240,000 a year. NOT BAD for a racist country!

Republican head count in the City Council is zero.
William Hale Thompson was the last Republican Mayor of Chicago in 1931.
For 89 years the Democrats have in control of Chicago. At the end of fiscal 2019 the Chicago deficit was $838,200,000. Looks like now it is close to billion!
Hmmm, maybe I don’t understand Systemic racism and how Trump and the Republican Party is to blame for Chicago’s problems. Of course, everything is Trump’s fault, and overall republicans are guilty of everything, but … not in Chicago.
From January thru July 2020 in Chicago were 2,240 Shootings, 440 Homicides. Almost every shooter was BLACK. 33% of the population gave Chicago 97.7% shootings and murders. And 67% of the population (whites, Latino, Asians, native Americans) gave Chicago 2.3% of shootings and murders. You have a 100 times higher chance to be shot on the streets of Chicago by black then by any other race or demographic group.
However BLM, Kamala Harris, Mayor of Chicago, and Chicago‘s Democratic Politicians blame “police brutality and systemic racism” for the predicament they brought to the city.
