Week in Review: Thousands Converge on Chicago for DNC; Riot Fest Staying at Douglass Park
High stakes as Chicago prepares for the spotlight with the Democratic National Convention beginning Monday.
Tens of thousands of Democrats will converge on the city to rally behind Vice President Kamala Harris’ bid for the White House — but there may be just as many protestors.
A threatened new wave of immigrants being bused from the southern border has so far not materialized.
Meanwhile, just as school’s set to start, Mayor Brandon Johnson is seeking to oust CPS CEO Pedro Martinez.
And Riot Fest organizers make an unexpected U-turn and say they are returning to Douglass Park after all.
