Anyone aware of any republican / conservative groups in Chicago? Seems fairly limited from my search

No, you don’t have to be a Christian to be part of the conservative or MAGA movement. My belief in the nuclear family, being tough on crime, and similar values come from my traditional East Asian upbringing. People join the MAGA movement through different paths and from very diverse backgrounds. Not being tough on crime is almost an alien idea to most East Asian countries.

And thank god for that

Highly recommend donating time and money to Turning Point USA, CYP- Chicago Young Republicans, Northwest Side GOP Club, Illinois GOP, Cook County Republican Party, and college republicans at UIC or UIUC.

That's good. People who support pedofiles should probably stay in hiding for their own good.

Don’t be discouraged by the recent events or some of the comments in here! You are not alone in your conservative ideals.

Remember that if you think real conservative you’d be anti-authoritarian so therefore anti-Trump, anti-all the tariffs, anti-government being involved in college admissions, anti-government having a say on women’s bodies , etc. the list goes on

@C1

No you don't need to agree with everything your party does but given all of the breaks Trump has from fundamental values of conservatives it makes you wonder what they really believe.

Trump is not small government and infringes on states rights constantly.
He does not prioritize the middle class when it comes to taxation
He does not adhere to the family values conservatives espouse
He protects pedofiles
In his 2nd term he openly admits to corruption within his administration which he orchestrates.
He has increased or at the very least maintained our foreign interference

In terms of actual policy - it seems he's more of his own thing than he is conservative.

Yes there are. Depending where you live check out www.nwsgop.com or even the Chicago GOP site. Hyde Park also has a group.

I'm sure there are Republican groups to be found. Conservative groups are a dying breed in this country. At the end of the day, if the goal is to actually influence politics in Chicago you pretty much have to operate from within the Democratic party and try to get somebody who doesn't think money grows on trees to be handed out to the teachers union or whoever else needs to be bought off. Unfortunately buying off voters and organizers is effective politics.

Dying breed? Not really. Chicago is just way more blue.

I recently had a specialist partner send me a fairly nasty email after I (a transactional first year) was told to ask them to review something ASAP that had clearly been on my partner’s radar for over a week.

Found a random engagement ring.

Hi all, so I found a platinum ring (which I assumed it's an engagement ring as it has dates and initials engraved on top.) And a Divvy tag (I have no idea what it was until I googled it. Apparently it's a bike sharing service in Chicago) in a briefcase I ordered online. I was thinking of returning the item back to the store but that wouldn't help the person who lost the ring. Attached is a picture of them.

What should I do now?
