1637828590111961089 | @royalpratt New Vallas endorsements: Greater Chicago Pinochet fan club, Chicagoland leeches and vampires association, Slumlords for Vallas, and CamCover (a non-profit providing free body-cam cover bags for CPD officers) | 20 |
1638172598000295936 | @royalpratt Paul Vallas has more prominent black leaders supporting him than Brandon, why is that? Instead of all the white progressives calling black leaders sellouts, maybe they should look at their candidate & ctu and they’ll figure out why. He’s a puppet of bad actors. | 14 |
1638014171596849153 | @royalpratt Bobby Rush was the second informant on the Fred Hampton assassination. He won't deny it because he doesn't want to be deposed about his relationship with Chicago Police Department. | 12 |
1637839401353879553 | @royalpratt Johnson endorsements vs. Vallas endorsements https://t.co/485IVffUcA | 10 |
1639324329153273859 | @royalpratt Cosplay Socialism 101: always parachute in at the last minute after all the actual work is done so you can take all the credit if they actually win. | 9 |
1637859644570755096 | TONIGHT we analyze Chicago's two choices for mayor. @HeatherCherone will talk with @JasonDeSanto, @royalpratt & @JasonMMcGrath about what Chicago might look under @PaulVallas or @Brandon4Chicago. RSVP: https://t.co/34t0UBn80R https://t.co/d2GwSpAMlT | 7 |
1639271279357206531 | @royalpratt Imagine if the media did their job and the voters knew Paul Vallas is currently working for a CPS vendor to open a charter school in Arkansas without disclosing it 🤷♂️ | 6 |

1638346408754282496 | @royalpratt Funny you picked that one, Gregory... @Brandon4Chicago is an Anarcho communist who would utterly destroy Chicago. #Twill https://t.co/gR7ntgB4OW | 5 |

1639989258130685953 | @royalpratt @DickDurbin one of the reasons universal health care doesn't exist. | 82 |
1637196658567004167 | @royalpratt Wait. The guy who is running on a 3% city income tax is now claiming he doesn’t want one. Same guy that was defunding police but now claims he’s not defunding. Gotcha | 77 |
1640012457409146881 | @royalpratt I’m sick of the white north side progressives telling everyone who doesn’t agree w/ them that they’re disappointed. Who gives a shit. Go knock on some doors & help your candidate win. Cyber bullying doesn’t win races. Your bike helmets are too tight, your brains aren’t working! | 76 |
1639993372818456576 | @royalpratt Won't mean much to him, @SenatorDurbin just lost my vote and I'm redirecting my annual contributions to Durbin's campaigns to Brandon Johnson's current campaign. It's time to get rid of the old white men Boomers anyway. They've done enough damage. | 75 |
1637827265227636739 | @royalpratt Are these endorsements or investments? | 71 |
