CHICAGO — It may be a new year, but it’s the same old failures and corruption from Illinois Democrats. Between the Democrats’ lies and a new leftist official being caught red-handed in corruption schemes seemingly every week, the Illinois Democrat Party is in shambles.

Take a look at some of the worst failures that have plagued Illinois Democrats to start the year:

Corruption between Chicago Public Schools and Chicago’s Teachers Union:

Rafael Yáñez, a Chicago Public Schools board member appointed by Mayor Brandon Johnson, was found conspiring with the vice president of the Chicago’s Teachers Union regarding contract negotiations during a private meeting. The interaction highlights the suspiciously close relationship between CTU and CPS. More corruption was exposed when Johnson faced ethics concerns regarding his dual role at CPS and CTU. The situation outlines unholy alliances in Chicago’s education system under Democrat rule.

Brandon Johnson hiding Chicago’s sanctuary city status:

As President Trump follows through with his vow to deport dangerous illegal immigrants, Brandon Johnson, the worst mayor in America, refuses to say if he will testify before Congress about Chicago’s sanctuary city policies that hinder law enforcement and protect illegal immigrants. Meanwhile, Johnson has reaffirmed Chicago’s stance as a sanctuary city, a policy that has allowed around 50,000 illegal immigrants into the city. Given his past record, Chicagoans shouldn’t expect Johnson to step up to the plate and own his responsibilities anytime soon.

Officials LIE about ICE deportations to ignite fear: 

Chicago Public Schools officials and Democrat politicians flat-out lied about ICE agents visiting Hamline Elementary to ignite fear and chaos in Chicago. President Trump’s border czar Tom Homan criticized Illinois Governor JB Pritzker for spreading fear instead of verifying the facts and demanded he apologize to ICE. No apologies yet.

Bottom Line: President Trump has been in office for 11 days getting results while Illinois Democrats focus on infighting and continuing Chicago’s culture of corruption.
