The fact that This permit was denied is an outrageous attempt to silence democracy, from the very man who has woken the People to restore real democracy back where it belongs - to each & every one of us.

More than 20 million Americans have been made second-class citizens for LIFE because of a fraudulent arrest for marijuana. The rest of the country is terrorized by this insane war. - Promises mean nothing now. We need ACTION before the election or we will choose Gary Johnson or Jill Stein.

Everyday polls come out saying that Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are not trusted and are seen negatively by the American people. Recently, polls have begun to include Libertarian Candidate Gary Johnson and Green Party Candidate Jill Stein pitted against Clinton and Trump and have shown that people are looking for a different solution. However, in order for these candidates to be considered for the debates they need to be at 15% or higher in the polls. This is a rule that was put in place to make sure the debates were between serious candidates. This is a hard point to get to for candidates like Johnson and Stein because they are not given a chance to make their voices heard. There is no better way to do so then on the debate stage in front of a national audience. I am asking my fellow Americans to demand that the rules be changed to allow people from established parties, like the Libertarian and Green parties, to participate in the presidential debates

I am starting it to ask Bernie Sanders to officially endorse Misty K Snow for Senate.

49 public schools closed. Six public mental health clinics closed. Mass transit service cut backs. Chicago parks needing expansion and repair. Massive cuts threaten public schools. Joblessness and violence escalates in our communities. At the same time we see the Mayor pushing to give away park land to a billionaire filmmaker and plunge the city into another billion dollars of expensive debt to build a vanity museum. At the same time, Chicago continues to be plagued by corruption and crooked deals that rob us of hundreds of millions of dollars. It's time to get to the bottom of the TRUE state of Chicago's twisted finances. The CivicLab is calling for an independent forensic audit of EVERY aspect of Chicago's business. We want ALL the books opened and examined by experts who are not creatures of the Democratic Machine or its allies in business and Big Law. We want all departments, agencies, boards, commissions, contracts and employee records open and put online. The CivicLab is responsible for the TIF Illumination Project (http://www.tifreports.com) and the new book "Chicago Is Not Broke. Funding the City We Deserve" (http://www.wearenotbroke.org). More info at [email protected].

We want transparent communication about current policies and provisions. We want our elected officials to reflect the priorities of the citizens they represent. Developments seem to be happening without any forethought for the overcrowding of schools, the destruction of our natural environment and the traffic issues that will ensue.

It personally affects all Americans.

At a time when more and more Americans are becoming aware of gross misuses of police power, filming the police, especially secretly, is one of the few ways to bring to light instances of police brutality. In order to have a state where officers are held accountable, it must be legal to film on-duty officers under any and all circumstances.

The people of New York City and those who love New York City are disturbed by the unfair actions and hostile takeover of the current and original incarnation of The Campbell Apartment. Mark Grossich and his company, Hospitality Holdings, Inc., spent 2 years and millions of dollars renovating an unused historical space, a drop-ceilinged shell, that was nothing but a room full of sawdust, a water-damaged space that had been used as a temporary jail and a storage space. Hundreds of thousands of people, if not millions, from New York and all over the world have developed a very strong emotional attachment to Mark Grossich's version and creation of The Campbell Apartment -- and we do not want nor understand this swift and aggressive change of a cultural landmark that is part of the fabric of our lives --- by the actions and decisions of 2 or 3 people at the MTA. People have been married at The Campbell Apartment, gotten engaged, have had almost two decades of experiences under the thoughtful operation of Mark Grossich and Hospitality Holdings, Inc. --- and we don't want Hospitality Holdings to hand over the lease. This is much more significant than deciding if Chipotle can have some square footage at the mall. It's much bigger than that. This is not about "hanging on to the past" -- this is a matter of fairness. It's a sad day in New York when someone can create something great, from their own vision, idea, and hard work --- something that enriched the city and people's lives --- to faithfully create a wonderful contribution to the community ... only to have it unfairly ripped from beneath his or her feet. This is not fair. Mark Grossich's space created memories, experiences and more, that will stay with people and the city forever --- this is no way to treat such a contributor. As well, it is not unreasonable to consider that through Mark Grossich's renovation of a dilapidated unused space, and the creation of a business that has been thriving for 17 years -- that the MTA has been able to charge higher rents to other commercial tenants since the day The Campbell Apartment opened. Mark Grossich created a draw, a destination, a cultural landmark -- and a space that elevated Grand Central Terminal. We don't want the eviction of Hospitality Holdings, Inc. from The Campbell Apartment and we are emphatically asking the MTA to stop it. As well, we are prepared to boycott The Gerber Group and all of their properties if the eviction proceeds.

Due to Senate Republicans’ refusal to fill the U.S. Supreme Court vacancy left by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia, a partisan lawsuit attacking President Obama’s executive actions on immigration was affirmed by an equally divided Supreme Court. The U.S. Supreme Court recently issued a 4-4 split decision on a Republican lawsuit that sought to derail President Obama’s 2014 immigration executive actions, known as DAPA and DACA+. Legally it’s as if the Supreme Court never heard U.S. v. Texas, meaning that the Court’s failure to rule has left in place an anti-immigrant injunction blocking the implementation of DAPA and DACA+ -- leaving millions of immigrants across the country without the immigration relief they so desperately need. By failing to rule in U.S. v. Texas, a short-staffed U.S. Supreme Court has effectively put the lives of millions of immigrant families on hold; denying them the opportunity to apply for a work permit or a driver’s license. If we want to ensure that the Supreme Court can appropriately interpret the law of the land, then cases like U.S. v. Texas must be reargued before a full Supreme Court. We demand that the Department of Justice recognizes the extraordinary circumstances surrounding the U.S. v. Texas case, and does everything possible to limit the scope of the injunction and file a motion for rehearing pending the confirmation of a ninth Supreme Court Justice.

Fairness and to prove out neutrality in governmental investigations. Rid our country of double standards.
