While at the beach this weekend celebrating Father's Day, I couldn't help but think: why are taxpayers being charged to park at public beaches and parks that our tax dollars already pay for? Chicagoans are taxed at every turn. Instead of finding ways to cut wasteful spending, City Hall... keeps finding new and creative ways to take more money from working families. It's as if no amount of taxation is ever enough. This is exactly why I am running for Mayor. One of my top priorities during my first 100 days will be launching forensic audits across city government to identify waste, fraud, abuse, and unnecessary spending. We need to find where money is being wasted and reallocate those funds to provide relief to taxpayers. Chicago doesn't have a revenue problem, it has a spending and stealing problem. As Mayor, I will work to reduce the burden on homeowners, taxpayers, businesses, seniors, and working families. We should be looking for ways to lower costs, not create new fees and taxes. There is no reason Chicagoans should feel nickel-and-dimed every time they want to enjoy a public park or public beach that their tax dollars already fund.

Chicagoans have had enough of you. Brandon Johnson, this is exactly why I can't wait to win this mayoral race. Chicago deserves a full forensic audit so taxpayers can finally see where their money has gone and how City Hall has been operating. Chicagoans are struggling to make ends meet because of your failed leadership. Families are dealing with high taxes, rising costs, crime, and declining city services. Instead of making excuses, you should be helping the citizens of Chicago. Chicagoans need accountability, transparency, and results. That's exactly what my administration will bring. When I'm Mayor, we will audit the books, expose waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption wherever it's found, and make sure those responsible are held accountable under the law. Forensic Audits. Indictments. Prison Time. Coming Soon. That's why I'm running,to put Chicagoans first and restore trust in City Hall.

This is exactly why I am running for Mayor of Chicago. Everything I am running on, I have been fighting for for years. 17 SHOT. 4 DEAD. AND THE MAYOR IS IN MARTHA’S VINEYARD? While Chicago families were dealing with another weekend of violence, Mayor Brandon Johnson was away in Martha’s Vineyard attending events. According to Chicago police, at least 17 people were shot and four people lost their lives across the city over the weekend. This is the reality Chicagoans are facing. Families are grieving. Communities are hurting. People are asking one simple question. Who is protecting us? Millions of taxpayer dollars continue to be spent on programs like Community Violence Intervention, yet Chicagoans deserve to know: Where is the accountability? Who is receiving the money? What measurable results are we seeing? What has changed for the people living with this violence every day? Chicago cannot afford leaders who are absent when the city needs them most. As Mayor, I will make public safety my top priority. I will make sure our police have the resources they need, our neighborhoods have the protection they deserve, and Chicagoans know their government is standing with them. No more excuses. No more politics over people. Chicagoans deserve safety. Chicagoans deserve leadership. Chicagoans deserve better. Danielle Carter-Walters for Mayor 2027 #commonsensecarter #justicecarter

These meetings are a joke. All we get is recycled talking points, excuses, and a front-row seat to watch how our tax dollars are being wasted. That's it. Nothing discussed in these meetings is focused on helping the taxpaying citizens of Chicago. Nothing. They give the appearance that they're fighting for you. They give the appearance that they're discussing solutions to improve your life. But when you sit through these meetings and watch what actually happens, you see the truth. The citizens come last. The agenda comes first. I've attended meeting after meeting at City Hall, Cook County, CPS, and other government bodies. The more you watch, the more you realize how disconnected these elected officials are from the people paying the bills. As Mayor, I will change that. My administration will launch forensic audits of city departments, contracts, grants, and taxpayer-funded programs. We will identify waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption and make the findings public. Every department receiving taxpayer dollars will be required to show results and public reports. Failed programs will no longer receive money. I will create a Chicago DOGE Office dedicated to rooting out wasteful spending and ensuring taxpayer money is spent on public safety, neighborhood investment, infrastructure, economic development, and services that benefit Chicago citizens. My administration will show transparent spending reports so citizens can see where their money is going. No more political favors, who you know, or insider deals. Chicagoans deserve accountability, transparency, and leadership that puts citizens first. The grift is over. The people are paying attention now. Every elected official is on notice. The days of wasting taxpayer dollars and putting politicians before citizens are coming to an end. Vote for Danielle Carter-Walters for Mayor of Chicago in 2027. Chicagoans First. Accountability First. #DanielleCarterWaltersForMayor2027 #CommonSenseCarter #ChicagoMayor2027

Brandon Johnson, you can keep trying to win an Oscar or audition for a Tyler Perry movie, but whichever direction you decide to go, one thing is clear: your time in office is coming to an end. I will continue reminding the citizens of Chicago who you are, what this administration has done, and what the Democratic candidates running for mayor stand for , especially those who currently hold office and have had the power to make changes but failed. The people are paying attention. We see what’s happening, and we understand what’s at stake. Chicago deserves leadership that puts citizens first, protects our neighborhoods, supports our police, lowers the burden on taxpayers, and brings accountability back to City Hall. As Mayor, I will End sanctuary city policies and ensure Chicago cooperates with federal law enforcement. Conduct forensic audits across city departments, including CPS and migrant spending, and make the results public. Freeze property taxes until taxpayers have answers about rising costs. Restore law and order by supporting CPD, addressing staffing shortages, and keeping repeat violent offenders off our streets. Protect Chicago families, businesses, and neighborhoods by putting Chicagoans first. The people are ready for change. WE ARE COMING FOR THOSE SEATS and we are taking our city back.

Thank you NEWSMAX .Anyone who's mad at me or saying I'm lying. Maybe you should start coming to City Hall and talking to the homeowners who have been fighting these issues for years. Go speak with the citizens who have been showing up meeting after meeting, trying to protect their homes, neighborhoods, and communities. I've been fighting on their behalf, especially as property taxes have skyrocketed and, in many cases, nearly tripled. I don't just make things up or repeat talking points. I spend time talking to the people affected, attending meetings, and listening to citizens who are living through these problems every day. I'm REALLY about the Chicago citizens. I will always stand with the people and fight for the homeowners, taxpayers, small businesses, and families who call Chicago home. As Mayor, my Chicagoans First platform will focus on, Freezing property taxes and providing relief for homeowners. Conducting forensic audits to identify waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars. Cutting red tape and unnecessary fees so small businesses can grow and create jobs. Revitalizing vacant commercial corridors and blighted neighborhoods. Improving public safety so families and businesses can thrive. Supporting local hiring, apprenticeship programs, and trade education. Protecting longtime citizens from being displaced from their communities. Ensuring every neighborhood gets a seat at the table and receives the attention and investment it deserves. I don't work for the MACHINE. I work for the people. My mission is simple, put Chicago citizens first, rebuild our neighborhoods, protect homeowners, support small businesses, and make sure every community has the opportunity to thrive.

🚨 JUST IN: Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) has uncovered nearly $80 BILLION in Pentagon spending hidden from the taxpayer from 2021-2025 "If there is valid spending, the taxpayers should know about it. If there is spending that is very bad, just as in the octopus hypnosis and monkey mind reading, our taxpayers should know that too, and then demand answers of those that spent the money on those ridiculous scientific projects." "We waste a lot of money, and what we need to know is that if our taxpayers are sending their hard-earned dollars to Washington, D.C., then the Pentagon and every other agency, we need to know that it's being spent wisely, whether it's for the benefit of our war fighters or the benefit of our farmers and so forth!"

Elon Musk Says We Have to Cut Government Spending Immediately "The reality is that all government spending is actually taxation. Sometimes people think some of it is taxation and some of it's not, but it's all taxation, because the part that is not covered by tax revenue becomes inflation. So you're either taxed directly or you're taxed by inflation, but you are for sure taxed. And so all government spending is taxation. So we have to reduce government spending overall. This will be forced upon us in the future because already just the interest payments on the debt are 23% of all federal tax revenue. Just the interest payments. The interest payments now exceed the Defense Department budget, which is a trillion dollars a year. That's a lot of money." Elon Musk

SOUTH SHORE, WHAT I SAW I recently visited the South Shore community and spoke with citizens and small business owners about their concerns. I walked blocks of abandoned businesses and vacant buildings around 71st & Merrill and 71st & Clyde. This is personal to me. I grew up near 68th & Paxton, and I remember when these streets were full of thriving businesses, families shopping, and a strong sense of community. To see it looking like this today is heartbreaking. This is what Democratic policies have produced while claiming to create an affordable Chicago. THE PROBLEM The business owners we spoke with said they are barely holding on because of: • High property taxes • Crime and retail theft • Inflation • Rising operating costs • Excessive regulations Unfortunately, this is not just a South Shore problem. Communities across Chicago are facing the same challenges. WHAT I WOULD DO AS MAYOR My administration would implement a Small Business Recovery & Relief Plan focused on. • Property tax relief for struggling small businesses and grants to help them stay in business • Cutting unnecessary regulations and fees • Streamlining permits and licensing • Making it easier to open and operate businesses in Chicago PUBLIC SAFETY FIRST Businesses cannot thrive without safety. My administration would: • Increase police presence in business corridors • Crack down on retail theft, vandalism, and repeat offenders by locking them up and keeping them there • Restore order in commercial districts • Help business owners focus on growing their businesses instead of worrying about crime ACCOUNTABILITY FOR YOUR TAX DOLLARS I will launch forensic audits to track where taxpayer dollars are going. Citizens deserve to know: • How their money is being spent • Whether resources are reaching the communities they were intended to help • Why some neighborhoods continue to be left behind Every community deserves investment, opportunity, and a seat at the table. REVITALIZING SOUTH SHORE My administration will work to: • Allow citizens to invest in and own businesses within their own communities • Revitalize commercial corridors like 71st Street • Fill vacant storefronts • Attract new businesses • Support existing business owners • Create jobs for local citizens I will also meet regularly with citizens in every ward to ensure their voices are heard and that aldermen are using community resources effectively. South Shore Citizens does not have to live like this. Chicago does not have to live like this. We can bring our neighborhoods back, support our small businesses, improve public safety, and restore pride in our communities. That's the future I'm fighting for, and that's why I'm running for Mayor of Chicago.

Former Mayor of Coronado says San Diego Democrats are quietly preparing a bunch of new taxes - Approved paying consultants half a million dollars to do research on ways to tax residents more - County sales tax - County transfer tax - City of San Diego tax - City of SD Airbnb & 2nd home bedroom tax - SANDAG sales tax These are all things he expects to be on the 2026 ballot to get more revenue from residents “San Diego is already expensive, and these proposed tax measures, on top of the new trash and parking fees, would hit most of us — The region does not have a revenue problem. It has a spending and management problem”

Please listen, and share. Mayor Brandon Johnson held a press conference to announce what he calls the Protecting Renters Ordinance. But we're not playing these games anymore. Chicago taxpayers know the city paid 9,000 dollars a month to house illegal aliens, while many Chicago citizens were pushed out of apartment buildings because landlords could receive higher payments. We also know proposals were made to protect those illegal aliens from eviction, even as many Chicago citizens continued to struggle. So here's my question: Where was the Protecting Homeownership Ordinance? When property taxes on the South and West Sides skyrocketed, and in some cases tripled, why wasn't there an ordinance to protect Chicago homeowners? Why wasn't there a property tax freeze for the citizens who worked their entire lives to pay off their homes, only to risk losing them because of rising taxes? Why wasn't an executive order issued to protect Chicago citizens? As Mayor, my administration will end Chicago's sanctuary city policies, and Chicago citizens will come first. When I propose a property tax freeze or homeownership protections, there will be no confusion about who those policies are for, they will be for the citizens of Chicago. I will not apologize for putting Chicago citizens first. That's exactly what I intend to do as Mayor.

This is what I've dedicated my life to doing because God gave me this mandate, to save Chicago. Went to the White House, advocating for Chicago and pushing for accountability. This fight is for YOU, Chicagoans. Safer streets. Affordability Accountability. Indictments. Forensic Audits. Prison Time. These are not just promises; they are the actions we need to restore our city. I’ve been fighting for you, and I will not stop. Together, we’ll hold those in power accountable and bring the change Chicago deserves.

Desmon Yancy calls out current city employees owing “tens of millions of dollars” to the city in unpaid fines and fees. “To be paid by the city and ignoring your debts to the city is insane. Many of these employees are able to pay their debts to the city but don’t feel compelled to pay, and that’s not OK.” Kudos to Ald. Yancy for calling this out. Outrageous that these debts are not garnished from wages already, as working Chicagoans pay higher property taxes to make up the difference. Simple fix.

Chicagoans, you do not have to live like this. If you're tired of rising crime, teen takeover, high taxes, government waste, and politicians who ignore your concerns, then it's time for a change. Change doesn't happen by voting for the same people and expecting different results. Change happens when we choose new leadership, new policies, and demand accountability. If you want a safer, stronger, and more affordable Chicago, vote for me. Danielle Carter-Walters, for Mayor in 2027. To see my platform, donate, or volunteer Together, we can put Chicagoans first and take our city back. #daniellecarterwaltersformayor2027 #commonsensecarter #justicecarter

IDK who this guy is, but he nailed it. He told the council that if this tax passes, it's permanent and likely the lowest it will ever be. Before asking taxpayers for another $50 million, he argued the city should first take a hard look at its own spending. He questioned why MILLIONS are being spent on landscaping contracts instead of exploring lower-cost alternatives like inmate labor. He criticized spending on the city's DEI office, argued taxpayers are already subsidizing bike lanes, walking trails, bus routes, and road projects, and asked why drivers should now pay even more. He also pointed to Marion County's reported audit issues involving missing federal funds, saying the county should demonstrate it can properly manage existing money before asking residents for additional tax dollars. His closing point summed up his argument: instead of pushing what he described as roughly an 80% increase in vehicle-related taxes, the city should go through the budget line by line, cut unnecessary spending, and prove it has exhausted every other option before reaching deeper into taxpayers' pockets.

Danielle Carter-Walters for Mayor-2027 The People’s Mayor! Around this time this month,, almost to the exact date, last year. I told Brandon Johnson to his face: Chicago is ours, and it’s time for a change. I didn’t know then that I would run for mayor, but I knew God was calling me to step up. Chicago will be prosperous. Chicago will be safe, for everyone, not just a few elected officials. Citizens, we are going to rise up. We are going to take back our city. This is our home. I may not have known the full plan then, but I knew a change had to come. I’m just being obedient. We will see prosperity. We will see safety. And we will do it, In Jesus’ name. Chicago, I love you. Everything I’m running on I've been fighting for will do exactly that. Accountability • Transparency • Forensic Audits • Indictments • Prison Time • Ending Sanctuary City Status • Public Safety — Tough on Crime • Affordability • Freezing Property Taxes • Freezing Corporate Taxes And much more #daniellecarterwaltersformayor2027 #commonsensecarter

Zohran Mamdani: Muslims in this city, for almost as long as we have been in this city, have had to deal with those with power and platform dehumanizing us. And to be called animals, insects, to be called a jihadist mayor, to be called a cockroach, this language is both painfully familiar to me as a Muslim New Yorker, but also as someone who was born in East Africa. And it is difficult to hear. It is also a reminder that the silence that often greets this kind of bigotry, this kind of Islamophobia, is what allows it to fester, the temptation to treat it as politics as usual. I am not ashamed of who I am. I am not ashamed of my faith. I am not ashamed of being the first Muslim mayor in the history of our city. And there is no amount of racism that will change the way in which I lead or the commitment that I hold to each and every New Yorker in this city.
