Wow. So that Chicago charter school CEO Paul Vallas has partnered with to build a charter school with in Arkansas and lead a consulting firm with, and didn’t disclose?

Seems like he has “interesting” views on race.

I’m honestly still blown away by these 10%+ management fees charter school operators receive. I’ve been around the block and this entire system with almost no oversight seems ripe for abuse

The Outfit is gonna have a whole new racket once they learn about this “Hey Tony, get this, we can get millions in government $ building a school.”

“Ok, im listening.”

“We can hire who we want without public bids, overcharge and nobody is watching. AND we can get 10% of the gross while giving our friends fat paychecks exclusive of that fee.”

Why did Paul Vallas lie on his financial disclosure form?

In April, 2020, Vallas and Michael Bakalis were 2 of the 4 managers listed in the incorporation documents for National Support Network LLC. Bakalis is CEO of American Quality Schools, a city contractor ImageImageImage “Do you have a financial interest in any person doing business with the city.”

Vallas checked no, but he clearly is a partner in an LLC with the CEO of a Chicago charter school operator according to these state documents.

Weird how Vallas’ address is NEXT DOOR to AQS’ office 🤷‍♂️ ImageImageImage

This is BIG

Not only did Paul Vallas not disclose anything about this charter school in his 2021 financial statement, the current charter owner, American Quality Schools, operates charter schools HERE in Chicago

@ChicagoOIG might have some issues with that In case you missed it, Paul Vallas has recently appeared on the website for the Arkansas Military & 1st Responders Academy as CEO.

Why hasn’t anyone heard about this? Perhaps because it involves yet ANOTHER police shooting and Paul Vallas? There is A LOT here, it’s crazy Image

Paul Vallas participated in the months-long bullying and harassment campaign of Oak Park Dir of Public Health @Theresa_Chapple by the hate group Awake’s leadership

Paul Vallas is a lying coward who couldn’t even stand up for a doctor of color under attack by unhinged white women Starting in Nov 2021, Awake leader Jessica Hockett (aka ewoodhouse7) singled out @Theresa_Chapple, a woman of color, for her COVID policies despite not living in Oak Park

Hockett began a tweet storm of attacks for her 40K+ followers, even gaslighting her based on race

So @LettuceEats just gave Paul Vallas $25k

Not surprising, considering one of their executive’s spouses, Jessica Hockett, is a leader in Awake - the same anti-LGBTQ hate group Paul Vallas helped raise $$$ for this past summer Image Jessica Hockett is a “Parent Liason” for Awake. Her husband, Tim a Hockett, is a “Chef Partner” for @WowBao
