Democrats see new momentum for plans to tax the rich
Democrat Ericka Lomick just “won” Texas House District 93 despite being a convicted felon who suspended her campaign months ago.
Let me tell you something absolutely BONKERS from last night’s midterms… Democrat Ericka Lomick just “won” Texas House District 93 despite being a convicted felon who suspended her campaign months ago. She pleaded guilty in 2011 to federal charges including mortgage-fraud conspiracy, bank fraud, and money laundering. Her sentence? 63 months in federal prison. On her candidate paperwork, she checked the box claiming she had not been finally convicted of a felony. After her criminal record surfaced in September, she suspended her campaign and stopped running. But Texas election deadlines had already passed, so her name remained on the ballot for both the regular general election and the special election. And voters still elected her by roughly 51–49%. Here’s the kicker: Under Texas law, a final felony conviction generally makes someone ineligible to hold office unless they’ve been pardoned or had their disabilities released. Meaning she can’t actually serve. Her “victory” simply creates a vacancy and triggers yet another special election. A convicted federal fraudster who quit campaigning still got elected to the Texas House. Let that absolutely sink in.

CNN’s Jake Tapper reminds viewers that Democrats don’t enforce immigration law.
CNN’s Jake Tapper reminds viewers that Democrats don’t enforce immigration law. Democrats “because they’ve been in the minority, they’ve been able to avoid making tough decisions, tough choices. And I’m just reminded of one of the reasons why the Biden administration, immigration enforcement policy was not particularly popular by the end, was because there was kind of a refusal to make a decision. Were they going to do what Obama did and actually enforce immigration law and then risk being unpopular among a group of Democratic voters and progressive activists, or were they going to acquiesce? And, ultimately, he didn’t really do anything, and it just became a, a muddle. So right now, Democrats are really happy because they won, and they haven’t actually said, but here are the seven things we’re going to do on immigration.” A preview of what’s to come?

Two-thirds of the vendors at this year’s Taste of Chicago had health code violations.
Two-thirds of the vendors at this year’s Taste of Chicago had health code violations. City inspectors logged more than 160 citations. Over half were for improper temperatures, and more than 800 pounds of food were discarded for unsafe temperatures. One chicken truck alone tossed 210 pounds on the first day. Food was prepped on a folding table behind the hedges. Sinks backed up. Garbage overflowed. This is the festival @ChicagosMayor said “reflects the heart and soul of Chicago through our people, our culture and our extraordinary culinary talent.” H/T @WBEZ @Suntimes
