Public Comment After Mayor Dwight Welch Loses City Credit Card

[@brentgambrell]

I love how the public is calling out the council members who were doing similar actions as the mayor. 😂

This is great seeing so many folks in the community taking part in their local government. My local government is getting out of control I’m going to find time to get more involved in my government.

[@robertcolfack26]

A city of less then 20,000 people and they have such a huge city government half of those people should be fired asap......

[@ozarksfarmerhansen8782]

I live in a City with 250 thousand we have 5 on the Council and dont get paid but this is Illinois most likely they are all Union.

[@mikesgoodmann9349]

This is Chicago, don't forget! lol

[@johnallen2771]

I just love to see these city council and other meetings locally. It's great to see people exercising their rights that are guaranteed by the good old US Constitution. People are speaking up about police abuse of power and with their elected officials. It smells like the 60s again. Could we have a renaissance in the making? People are getting into people again.

[@marcweeks9178]

"That being said..." That's never followed by good news.

[@pestyone1024]

Pathetic council!!! First off they have a Mayor that openly admits to miss using the City Credit card inappropriately, Council Members openly insulting each other with character assassination accusations in an open forum. Secondly, while citizens are voicing their opinions and concerns in the 3 minutes allotted to them, I watched while Council members boldly and openly ignoring them while speaking amongst each other, as well as having to be reminded not to keep interrupting the Citizens while they were speaking.

[@fish-n-love3401]

Sickening isn't it?!? The council forgets who they actually work for.. the council needs to be fired and reminded.. A new structure and regulations need to be implemented.. one that does the good will of the ppl and not their own individual desires.

[@woodywoodlstein9519]

This is the politics that really matters. Local!!! These are the people !! god dammit

[@legatomodi3522]

Woody Woodlstein the truth. the federal government's job should be only concerned with the protection of the amendments in the bill of rights. the rest, personal things that people need to decide whats right and wrong for themselves should be the concern of the state. gay marriage, abortion rights, immigration on the state borders, and drug prohibition are personal. it should be left to the state. i do not understand why these are always brought up in the presidential elections. its not their business. congress and the senate are inneffective at achieving anything anyways we might as well leave it to the states. the president should be most involved in international policy with the congress. war mustnt be declared unless its approved by congress.

[@fish-n-love3401]

Yep!

[@jerryfraker377]

The mayor should buy the entire city a strong drink.

[@mrmidlifecrisis2155]

Am I hearing right this family received the ambulance bill before they have made any arrests and they have names.morally bankrupt

[@whatifschrodingersboxwasacofin]

The first lady with the headband NEEDS to be a professional narrator. What a wonderful voice.

[@jcman240]

Those are not taxpayers

[@lordvengerx]

Are any of these people still on the council? O.o

[@maxangst]

I used to wonder how he was able to keep getting re-elected. Used to .

[@elbertmoore7876]

The dude on the left never looked up so I’m sure he didn’t care what they had to say. I would of called him on tgat

[@bmac6841]

Elbert Moore Elbert, it’s would ‘have.’ Would ‘have’ called him on that. Hard to take you people seriously. Even though I corrected you, I know you will continue to say would ‘of ‘.

[@fish-n-love3401]

can you say "Entitlement"...!

[@maxangst]

This entire spectacle aside from a few speakers was disgusting.

[@Mike-.747]

Criminal politicians

[@fish-n-love3401]

Very!... Criminal.. disgusting

[@jakefromstatefarm4219]

21:06 - "Shut up!"

[@imcoop]

Mayor Welch has gotten away with so many bad things-how he gets re-elected all the time is beyond me

[@sjh60633]

So did Daley, Madigan, Durbin, etc. The people never demand change in these democrat controlled areas. They just keep voting for the same party.

[@janetr1633]

Steve Howard ..and then there was the crackhead Marion Berry that got re-elected after his crazy self got caught red handed with a crack pipe and a whore. Go figure.....

[@TheresaPowers]

@@janetr1633 And the blacks voted him back into office.

[@fish-n-love3401]

Cheating... they cheat.. that's why they don't pay attention to the citizens that speak.. they are not worried about anything! Sickening.. yuck!

[@pedromas55pm]

It’s so much easier to listen to educated arguments instead of jive

[@davidca96]

The Rent is Too Damn High Party needs to take over this town.

[@bmac6841]

13:57 Duncan Hill. Not facing the committee. Strange. Memorial Day was canceled? That can’t be! 😂

[@sjh60633]

I love that second lady

[@TheresaPowers]

The only one who was great was the first women. The one you like turned it into a clown show. She acted like the fool she is.

[@TheZigzagman]

Exactly. The first woman made salient, supported points. The second woman basically threw a fit and made a ton of baseless accusations.

[@eNewsParkForest]

Right back at-cha.
