I’m at MacArthur’s in Austin where Rep. Danny Davis is endorsing a candidate in the Dem presidential primary.
This marks Davis' second endorsement in the crowded primary field. His first pick, Sen. Kamala Harris, dropped out of the race in December after running out of cash.
Davis is backing Biden, who he says has the best chance to topple Trump.
Davis picks the Chiefs in the Super Bowl and, unsurprisingly, Biden in the #IACaucus

Brown touts the continued decreases in shooting and homicides citywide. Homicides are down 16%, shooting victims 20%.
He also credits the number of guns taken off the street this year, something he does regularly.

Joseph Collins, an Alsip man with clear ties to the Proud Boys, was charged with a hate crime after allegedly vandalizing UpRising Bakery and Cafe in Lake in the Hills earlier this month.
chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2022/7/3…
Collins has been photographed wearing Proud Boys garb and standing alongside Edgar “Remy Del Toro” Delatorre, a prominent member of the neofascist group. Both men were present for the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, which has led to federal charges against dozens of Proud Boys.
Collins allegedly smashed out windows at the bakery and spray-painted hateful graffiti following threats and harassment over the bakery’s planned “Starry Night Drag Brunch,” which was supposed to happen that same evening.

Starting a running thread with stories about the hacked city emails that were posted online by @DDoSecret. First, here’s our primer:
chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2021…
Last Thursday, a day before the publicly city acknowledged the hack, @SouthSideWeekly @jimdaleywrites published this story about Lightfoot’s behind-the-scenes lobbying for qualified immunity.
southsideweekly.com/lightfoot-quie…
The @Suntimes on Monday reported that Mayor Lightfoot has been stalling on a fix to address the way the city investigates fatal police shootings, which currently violates state law.

Since there’s some renewed interest in the Proud Boys, I’m going to highlight some members operating in and around the Chicago area. First up is Brien James, a former klansman who started the American Guard and leads the Indiana Proud Boys.
splcenter.org/fighting-hate/…
James was among the white nationalist crew that joined a downtown rally against Kim Foxx last year. Here’s James chatting with Chicago FOP Prez John Catanzara at the rally. Image
James was there alongside Chicago Proud Boys, including “Trigger” Tom Christensen. Christensen has since been sentenced to three years in prison for stabbing another man at a concert at Northerly Island.

I'm over at the Thompson Center, where Gov. Pritzker will be talking about "ensuring fairness when awarding conditional adult-use cannabis dispensary licenses." Here's my story from yesterday.
chicago.suntimes.com/cannabis/2020/…
After going thru priorities of legalization law, Pritzker says his admin has heard for weeks "that more needs to be done to ensure fairness" in the cannabis industry and application process. Reiterates what's outlined in the linked story above.
Notes that all applicants who revise applications, challenge scores and get a perfect grade will be included in the lottery. Currently, only 21 groups had perfect scores.

I’m headed to the Thompson Center to cover multiple press conferences dealing with the state’s decision to whittle down 700+ applicants for new pot shop licenses to just 21 groups who will be included in a lottery to determine the winners.
Congressmen Danny Davis and Chuy Garcia and state Rep. La Shawn Ford are expected to speak about the “rigged” lottery at one of them. Image
The group claimed the lottery has been scheduled for tmrw, which former state Rep. Rickey Hendon called “a snake move.” One applicant said his group is now filing an injunction. Another suit obtained by the ST has already been filed in connection with the applications.
