Sean Spicer is the latest President Donald Trump administration ex-official to retain a criminal defense attorney. Are there any current or former Trump administration members who are not currently represented by a defense attorney? Perhaps an informed conservative reader can answer this question.

I am happy to see that Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle is donating to the campaign funds of Cook County commissioners who she needs to support her soda tax. As John Kass would say, it’s “the Chicago Way.” Preckwinkle may be able to buy sufficient votes to retain this regressive tax in the near term, but her victory and that of those who support her will be short lived. A classic case of winning the battle, but losing the war. Good riddance all tone deaf public officials who refuse to listen to their constituents. The next election will resolve the soda tax problem if still in place after the next vote.

Where does William from Oak Lawn get his material from? Who writes his jokes? I have not seen or heard of a single Republican wanting to repeal the ACA in order to take away insurance from 30 million people. I do, however, know that former President Barack Obama and the Democrats lied when they said that you could keep your doctor and keep your plan.
I use good old cash whenever and wherever possible. No one can steal your credit card number or hack in to your account. Also, no interest or late fees. Pay by money order instead of a personal check. There’s no bank account number to trace.
