By: Diane Benjamin Ward 6 had no representation last night – Jenn Carrillo decided not to show up and nobody said a word about her missing except in Public Comment. Maybe Jenn had to get ready for her court hearing today: She is charged with disobeying a police officer and improper parking on a roadway […]
(see update below) This happened after 7:00 am this morning on the east side of Bloomington: Imagine how much damage they could cause without the fear of getting caught! The ideology of the left can be summed up in one word: HATE. We need the police to protect us from them, unless they would rather […]
By: Diane Benjamin I really wanted to take the afternoon off, but then a reader sent me this: ISU must believe “people of color” all lean left. This virtual discussion is being conducted by one of the local leaders of Black Lives Matter: Olivia Butts. On the panel are 3 local women who range from […]
h/t a reader Also in the video: By: Diane Benjamin h/t a reader See one story here: https://hoiabc.com/2020/09/29/grand-jury-indicts-bloomington-man-on-32-child-molestation-charges/?fbclid=IwAR1pafw6ONtSyM0S3A9AEaCVwjNHIz-WtDTzbzwTdWicjYkXtj27D4Oo7SU#.X3R6sTYfjAY.facebook The guys name is Mercedez Byrd, he also had cocaine in his pocket when he was arrested. His Facebook page has numerous videos, in one he is asking for names of people who need bailed out so […]
By: Diane Benjamin Never let a good crisis go to waste. This was Twitter yesterday after the Breonna Taylor decision. A grand jury – CITIZENS called on to make decisions – agreed two of the officers should not be charged. The decisions were not made by the police, a State’s Attorney, or even the BLACK […]
By: Diane Benjamin Jenn Carrillo posted 2 voicemails she received: I have no idea who the two people are who left these voicemails, but they serve ZERO purpose. She doesn’t care about your opinions. Your job, if you don’t want want Jenn’s on the Bloomington City Council is to inform other citizens and actually get […]
By: Diane Benjamin I remember years ago when I mentioned “limited government” some people didn’t understand what that means. Politicians are constantly claiming they will save us from whatever and they actually make the whatever worse. Just this week Minneapolis citizens and their leadership are wondering why the police don’t show up when called. Other […]
By: Diane Benjamin The left never accepted the results of the 2016 election. They won’t accept the re-election of Trump either. Tweet last night: Response to her tweet: In case the police want to find Zach when Trump is reelected: I’ve got a packed day today, so I will leave this to you readers for […]
By: Diane Benjamin See the agenda packet for Monday here: http://bloomingtonil.iqm2.com/Citizens/FileOpen.aspx?Type=1&ID=1089&Inline=True City Manager Tim Gleason is getting a 3% raise because he’s doing such a wonderful job: See PDF page 57. You have to continue reading to find out how much the new salary is before benefits: $197,219 I wonder if Jenn Carrillo is okay […]
By: Diane Benjamin Why would any business decide to locate in Bloomington when a member of the City Council retweeted this: Black Lives Matter lost all credibility when they bailed looters out of jail. People of all political persuasions know theft and destruction of other people’s property is wrong. Looks like Jenn thinks it’s fine. […]
By: Diane Benjamin Below is a post by Jenn Carrillo on why people are shooting each other in her neighborhood – see WGLT story https://www.wglt.org/post/gunfire-hits-driver-vehicles-homes-3-shooting-incidents-bloomington The sad truth is Jenn doesn’t expect better behavior. She doesn’t expect citizens to be civil. Just because someone is poor it doesn’t mean they go around shooting each other, […]
By: Diane Benjamin The Council met for a whopping 16 minutes last night, they didn’t have an Executive Session. Tim Gleason started the meeting with a COVID update. He claimed cases are up because people have been traveling now and are out and about more. He ignores the obvious: College kids are back and out […]
By: Diane Benjamin The Bloomington City Council will meet on Monday with only 1 item on the agenda (besides approving minutes and hear how everything needs to stay locked down because 20 somethings can’t protect themselves from COVID) Has anyone ever celebrated Columbus Day? I wonder if Jenn knows her native language is Spanish because […]
Socialism Kills! Obviously Carrillo was never taught history and doesn’t bother to learn. She is the enemy within. She and Jeff Carbill need to be marginalized by the other Bloomington City Council members. Congrats Bloomington: Two of her buddies are running next April. Capitalism is the fairest way to exchange goods and services and the […]
By: Diane Benjamin It appears Jenn Carrillo has blocked me on Twitter. This morning I retweeted one of Dickie Durbin’s stupid comments about needing more money for Chicago to end poverty and violence. Of course I added a comment: Jenn responded to me with this, when I tried to reply it appears I’m blocked. Keep […]
By: Diane Benjamin You may have heard that Jenn Carrillo was ticketed for illegal parking yesterday for (as she claims) trying to protect Black Lives Matter demonstrators at the County jail. Read her shirt: She added this later to her Facebook page: How can the police protect protesters wanting criminals and suspects released from jail […]
By: Diane Benjamin Jenn Carrillo isn’t the only one calling for the release of all prisoners from the McLean County jail, her merry band of Marxists all play the same game. I wonder if she WANTS you to be a crime victim! Look at any democrat run city talking about defunding the police and enacting […]
Midwest Food Bank is no longer on the list ______________ By: Diane Benjamin h/t a reader Jenn Carrillo thinks they are – they are listed on a new website Jenn is working on for “lefty” causes: https://www.justblono.net/resources Below are all of the ones listed, she forgot Connect Transit: Jenn is looking for writers to blog […]
By: Diane Benjamin https://www.wglt.org/post/isu-change-watterson-towers-house-names-over-slavery-history ISU President Dietz has caved to the Cancel Culture. He thinks it isn’t fair to ask students to live in Watterson Towers in houses named for historic figures ISU likely has no classes that even discuss. His Assistant for Diversity (head divider) told him. Dietz doesn’t know the Cancel Culture never […]
By: Diane Benjamin As if it isn’t already ridiculous that Tari puts time limits on your elected representatives, now he doesn’t want them pulling items from the Consent Agenda. Maybe he’s taking lessons from Chris Koos. Tari was upset Donna Boelen pulled two items, he claims Consent Agenda items have no need to be discussed. […]
By: Diane Benjamin The City of Bloomington has dealt with Aldermen who disrespect the flag with activist signs and refuse to say the Pledge of Allegiance, just make them disappear. Next they need to work on the disrespect to their oaths of office, promoting socialism or worse is not compatible with the Constitution they swore […]
http://www.truenorthreports.com/Anthropologist-Says-Christopher-Columbus-Critics-Have-Their-History-Wrong It isn’t unusual for the Cancel Culture to get their facts wrong, Columbus just might be one of them. Of course, Jenn won’t care – canceling history is popular in her circles. She mentioned at the last Council meeting she will make changing Columbus Day to Indigenous People’s day a Council initiative. Excerpts: Read […]
By: Diane Benjamin Everything happening in the country right now has to do with ONE thing: Presidential Election Democrats have a candidate that doesn’t know where he is most of the time. They don’t want you to know who will be running the country – it won’t be Biden. Black Lives Matter is just an […]
By: Diane Benjamin The local elections next year could give the radicals complete control of Bloomington. Right now they have 2 out of 9 seats, 5 and the mayor up for election next April. The radicals will be running candidates, all they need is 3 more seats to turn the Bloomington into their Marxist utopia. […]
By: Diane Benjamin The City of Bloomington Council meeting will reconvene Wednesday at 7:30. Technical difficulties were experienced with the Live Stream. Instead of having the meeting anyway and posting video today, the meeting was rescheduled. That was a good thing because it allowed Jenn Carrillo and Jeff Crabill to comment on a Live event […]
By: Diane Benjamin It’s obvious the Democrat Party only cares about blacks when they want their vote. Obama was president with his sidekick Biden for 8 years. They didn’t do prison reform or even talk about police reforms. Neither did anything about the black unemployment rate or the black on black violence in Chicago. Add […]
By: Diane Benjamin Maybe Jenn Carrillo can hop on her official Facebook page and deny she made this comment on my site: Doesn’t this sound just like her? America has survived for almost 244 years without socialism being “existentially necessary”. Have we lost the battle? Not as long as the 2nd Amendment exists. That’s why […]
By: Diane Benjamin Since the list contains obvious lies I’m not going to post the un-redacted version. https://blnnews.com/2020/06/14/we-are-at-war/ Many people want to know who is on the list so they can frequent these establishment. Remember when Chic-Fil-A was targeted and supporters stood in long lines just to show their support? https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/chick-fil-supporters-gather-appreciation-day/story?id=16904664 Jenn Carrillo claims […]
Updates: https://blnnews.com/2020/06/15/more-on-the-list/ https://blnnews.com/2020/06/15/did-jenn-make-this-comment/ By: Diane Benjamin Please read to the bottom and then share Jenn Carrillo was brought illegally to this country by her parents. If her parents broke the law to provide a better life for the family that’s understandable. Jenn isn’t here for a better life however. She is the founder of […]
By: Diane Benjamin Jenn Carrillo gets talking points from the Southern Poverty Law Center. SPLC is a money making machine promoting personal attacks for money. https://thefederalist.com/2018/05/07/5-reasons-southern-poverty-law-center-hate-mongering-scam/ See more at the link above. This organization thrives on hate and violence. Any person or organization that uses the Southern Poverty Law Center as a source for […]
By: Diane Benjamin Where is the violence across the country happening? Mostly Democrat run cities frequently with black mayors, black police chiefs, and other black officials. The violence has nothing to do with justice. Think WHITES aren’t victims of bad cops? See this video of police killing a WHITE handcuffed man who called them for […]
By: Diane Benjamin h/t: a reader WGLT was also Live-Streaming the NAACP event. At almost the end Jenn was on video pulling what appears to be a box of matches from her bag, taking one out of the box, attempting to light it, and then turning her back to the camera. Below are screen shots […]
By: Diane Benjamin Bloomington and Normal are preparing for another night of violence. I know Decatur is busy boarding up their downtown. Social media claims Walmart in Pontiac was looted today. Jenn posted pretty much the same message on her Facebook page today as on this video, but you need to HEAR her say those […]
By: Diane Benjamin Yesterday Jenn Carrillo posted this: Jenn Carrillo does not care about the foundations of a civil society: Rule of Law. She has forfeited her right to serve as a representative of Ward 6 in the City of Bloomington. The video below was taken by one of the protesters and posted to […]
By Diane Benjamin h/t a reader City councils are supposedly non-partisan. We all know they aren’t. Everybody needs to quit pretending many of the local elected aren’t playing party politics instead of what is best for it’s citizens. Bloomington’s mayor Tari Renner proves that point. I wonder if he is teaching this crap to his […]
By: Diane Benjamin Ever seen kids throwing a fit in a store when mommy won’t buy them what they want? Ever seen mommy buy it just to shut them up? The local babies won’t get “mommy” to comply. Our leaders know giving into terrorists only makes them stronger. The mom who buys them something to […]
By: Diane Benjamin The local beggars held another weekly call Wednesday night. Alderman Jeff Crabill wants the Council to be compassionate and cough up money. https://week.com/2020/04/29/despite-setback-twin-city-coalition-resumes-battle-to-ease-covid-19-economic-stress/ Excerpt: I could make an extensive list of how government has no compassion, but that isn’t necessary here. Also according to the article, these groups made up the attendees: […]
By: Diane Benjamin Hitler was elected. The people of Germany voted for a socialist because he promised to save them. Democratic Socialism. Those wanting to re-write history don’t want you to know his party was called: National Socialist German Workers’ Party. Socialists always come to power promising equality and free stuff. It’s easy to get votes […]
By: Diane Benjamin Do you choose Freedom and Liberty or Socialism? Jenn’s day job is selling socialism. If her side wins history proves people will die. Socialism has never worked and never will! Jenn narrated this video. Yes it has a lot of truth, but her solution will destroy America. If you don’t understand what […]
