A Cook County judge on Monday denied a request by the City of Chicago forbidding the head of the union representing rank-and-file Chicago police officers from defying a mandate requiring city employees to report their COVID-19 vaccination status.

So the president of the police union is allowed to talk again. Free speech wins this round.

Lol. I had to read that a few times to figure out what the heck happened. A prime example of modern “journalism”.

In Howard Cosell voice, “Down goes Groot, down goes Groot”!

Me too. That one sentence about the gag order contained three negative words: denied, forbidding, and defying.

I’ve read that shorter sentences are, in general, easier to comprehend. I guess the authors of this article disagree.

I am absolutely not, not, not, not, not, not happy about this.

[Seruzawa]

Double negatives should be avoided. At least that used to be the rule. These here guys just ain’t got no good grammar.

[j.havenfarm]

I would hope so since the gag order was per se unconstitutional

Five authors in the byline, and they've (apparently deliberately) obfuscated the core of the story. The judge suspended the fascist lezzie Mayor's gag order.

What’s not to be happy about?

The police union is pushing on the aldermen to rescind the shots order, and the judge didn’t extend the gag order on the union boss.

are you friggin kiddin me??? it took FIVE to write this dreck?

[Leaning Right]

Five authors - I noticed that too. And it’s not all that unusual. I’m beginning to seriously think it’s a diversity thing. Gotta check off as many boxes as possible.

[gitmo]

I’m glad I’m not the only one. It seems There are more and more articles on well known platforms that are almost impossible to decipher.

[Chode]

yup... looks like they checked five boxes too
