Perhaps they could cut down on corruption by publicly hanging those convicted of it.
Maybe they could also proclaim on TV, Radio, Newspaper, and online, showing of anti-gunners that are HYPOCRITES.

He isn't a hypocrite. He is not a little person like you. Important people like him should be exempt from his rules.Maybe they could also proclaim on TV, Radio, Newspaper, and online, showing of anti-gunners that are HYPOCRITES.

Excerpts I read at Second City Cop indicate one of his fellow aldercritters (Solis)wore a wire for TWO YEARS to help the Feds build a case against Burke (which leads one to wonder what they had on the wire-wearing aldercritter).
Also quotes from various other aldercritters essentially condemning Solis for being a snitch. Undermines trust among the aldercreatures. I'll bet.
City Council Code of Silence: GOOD!
Chicago PD Code of Silence: BAD!
Carry on.
...(which leads one to wonder what they had on the wire-wearing aldercritter)...
The document lays out in exhaustive detail a laundry list of alleged federal crimes the FBI had compiled against Solis by the time he was confronted and agreed to cooperate with the investigation.
In exchange for official action or promises, Solis solicited a “steady flow of personal benefits,” including Viagra pills and prostitution services from a political operative who represented a company seeking an exemption from the city’s water ordinance, the affidavit alleged.
The affidavit suggested that Caldero also offered prostitution services to Solis at a North Side massage parlor on several occasions.
“Let me tell you why I called,” Solis was quoted as saying in one call from July 2015. “I want to get a good massage, with a nice ending.”
When Caldero said he knew of a place and would make an appointment, Solis asked, “What kind of women do they got there?” the affidavit said.
“Asian,” Caldero responded.
“Oh good! Good, good, good,” Solis said, according to a transcript. “I like Asian.”
Lack of term limits and too much campaign money floating around means we will never put more than a dent in this crap.
And the answer is:
Bombshell filing details FBI's two-year probe of alleged corruption by Ald. Daniel Solis
I maxed out my monthly allotment again before I could open the affidavit mentioned in the article, but:
Viagra and hookers? What the hell is wrong here? Back in the day it was hookers and blow to bribe politicians.
Same politicians, they're just older now.
WBEZ in an Oct. 8 report identified at least 10 instances in which Illinois Supreme Court Justice Anne Burke decided on cases involving parties who at the time were being represented as clients of her husband’s law firm. The firm, Klafter & Burke, is where her husband, Chicago 14th Ward Ald. Ed Burke, was until recently a partner. Ed Burke gave up his partnership after being charged with corruption in a 14-count federal indictment. Anne Burke is about to become the high court’s chief justice.
While WBEZ notes it is not certain that Justice Burke’s rulings on those cases were influenced by the parties’ relationship with Klafter & Burke, her decisions have spared many of her husband’s clients from “significant financial and legal risk.”
So...
Did Burger King have it their way?
