A monument honoring those impacted by COVID-19 and those who worked to limit its spread is coming to the Illinois Medical District on Chicago’s Near West Side this year, five years after the pandemic outbreak.
The 25-foot, stainless steel monument, titled “COVID-19 Memorial Monument of Honor, Remembrance & Resilience,” will be built at 2023 W. Ogden Ave., on the one-acre triangle at West Polk Street, South Damen Avenue and West Ogden Avenue and nestled between Stroger Hospital and Jesse Brown VA Medical Center . Its unveiling is planned for this fall.
“Now Chicago will be the physical place where the world honors front-line workers. If that’s not a source of pride, I don’t know what is,” said Sally Metzler, who chairs the COVID-19 Monument Commission.

Any bets on how quickly it will be sprayed with graffiti or torn down in the next riot?
It’ll be a giant fist poised over a large hole.
Is “COVID-19 Monument Commission” on the usaid list?
I’d normally add a /s tag, but this isn’t sarcasm. Wouldn’t surprise me at all at this point.
Everybody has to stand six feet away from it and wear a mask.
Honoring the dancing nurses?
I sneeze in their general direction, however symbolically.
The psyop continues...
If Illinois wants to privately fund it or use taxpayer dollars for it, have at it. But under no circumstances will the US taxpayer fund this debacle.

Chicago remains Chicago.
Somebody is likely “connected” - especially in Chicago.
And Los Angeles. And D.C. under the Democrats / Uniparty.
U.K Pundit Neil Oliver provides a platform for a very important conversation.
Two researchers, Sasha Latypova and Debbie Lerman, appear with Mr. Oliver to discuss the “COVID DOSSIER.” An extensive research document that outlines how the origin of the COVID-19 response originated from within the military and intelligence community and not, NOT, from public health officials.
As Sasha, Debbie and Neil discuss, regardless of the SARS-CoV-2 origination, what really matters is what the apparatus of the global intelligence community did in the aftermath of what was called a “global pandemic virus.”
“It is crucially important to understand that COVID was a globally coordinated response based on legal frameworks intended for biodefense/biowarfare situations. The attack that initiated the global COVID response could have been real, perceived, or invented—regardless of the trigger, the lockdown-until-vaccine paradigm originated in the military/intelligence biodefense playbook, not in any scientifically based or epidemiologically established public health plan. [ref]
This means that nothing about the response—masking, distancing, lockdowns, vaccines—was part of a public health plan to respond to a disease outbreak. Rather, every aspect of the response was intended to induce public panic in order to gain compliance with biodefense operations, culminating with the injection of unregulated mRNA products, which were legally treated as biodefense military countermeasures (MCMs), into billions of human beings.”
In a strange way, the timing of this research publication release aligns with my current concerns about DOGE revelations within the USA about the USAID and CIA activity.
In short, I worry the “old system of control” mechanisms are no longer needed. The Western global intelligence apparatus, driven primarily by the USA intelligence community, is moving on from public influence operations that required widespread convincing and propaganda. I fear a “new system of control” will be technologically driven and triggered by newly created technological mechanisms.
This is where Real ID, Facial Recognition, Palantir AI and govt funded technological interfaces could come into play.
The Western IC (Five Eyes) are installing a technologically driven surveillance state in the Australia, Canada, The U.K, New Zealand and the USA.
Australia, NZ and the EU were the proving ground for health driven control operations, COVID passports – now digital ID’s (EU, UK), emergency control of banking systems (Canada), the interface with politically exposed persons; population lockdowns (NZ, AU), etc.
In the USA our constitution creates some impediments; enter the voluntary introduction of bipartisan AI.
“We will use advanced technology and non-partisan AI programming, to make the government more efficient and ensure this level of corruption and wasteful spending never happens again. Every dollar will be tracked, monitored and oversight will be transparent and available for everyone to see. Just ignore the part where the same efficiency system is monitoring your real ID, connecting your personage to the new govt and private sector interfaces, and click “I agree” on your next federal tax filing. Trust us Comrade citizen, the new technologically advanced DODGE approved govt system cares about responsible stewardship and your privacy. Swear.”
Maybe I’m wrong, but it tracks…
They recently replaced a bridge near me. The old one was colonial design with balusters and banister molded into the concrete. This is what they replaced it with.
$1.4 billion grant from fedgov for two such bridges. This one took 4-5 months to build. We recently got upgraded to fiber optic internet. The phone/internet company has guys that know fiber optic but weren't allowed to do the work because they're not union which the fedgov grant requires so some Yankee company from up North did it and our local guys helped. My guess is that the bridge grants probably worked the same and the design likely came down from on high. Missouri's annual budget is $50 billion with $25 billion of it being the spending of fedgov money.
It’s Chitcago, whose gonna see it?

I can’t figure out why the Prickster doesn’t make a monument to all of the African Americans murdered every weekend by other African Americans. That is what needs a monument. Fatso is such a dip****.
See it? The point is getting paid. Chicago. Also Democrats.
Nope—its just another money making scam like Obama’s Library. The monument should be in New York if anyplace. Maybe in Wohan China.
I’d prefer Fauci be hanging at Nuremberg II
for murdering 7+ million people all
