| 1627371357469122562 | The endorsement puts García in bed with allies of former Mayor Harold Washington’s fiercest enemies, including former 33rd Ward Ald. Dick Mell. | My latest for @TheTRiiBE https://t.co/L7xUi5E55o | 26 |
| 1627060653507899394 | One day after Rossana Rodriguez calls for police accountability in an article at @TheTRiiBE and @thenation about another CPD coverup that should be front-page scandal, @ChuyChicago endorses her police union-backed opponent. Not a coincidence. No integrity. https://t.co/bFpie9VRRu | 25 |
| 1624447091056558082 | Our @TheTRiiBE story compared Vallas's Texas police officer son killing a Black man who was fleeing with a gun to the CPD killing of Anthony Alvarez, not Laquan, b/c Alvarez led to CPD amending foot-pursuit policies, which Vallas criticized at the launch of his mayoral campaign. https://t.co/NGMHjDVVZN | 22 |
