"Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard Faces Backlash and Chaos at Village Board Meeting"

Chaos erupted at the Village of Dolton's town hall meeting as residents confronted scandal-ridden Mayor Tiffany Henyard over a range of grievances, including alleged misuse of funds, retaliatory business raids, and a controversial Las Vegas trip. Residents accused Henyard of stealing money from a cancer charity, mishandling a police shooting incident, and failing to address alleged sexual assault and retaliation scandals. Henyard, in turn, criticized the media and shut down the meeting for safety reasons, citing threats of violence and misinformation. The FBI is reportedly investigating misconduct allegations against Henyard, and the Illinois Attorney General is cracking down on her purported cancer charity for lack of financial transparency.

Howard County Implements New School Start and End Times Effective Wednesday

Howard County in Maryland is adjusting school start and end times in an effort to address busing issues that have caused delays and disruptions for students and families. A town hall meeting is being held to allow community members to voice their concerns and propose solutions. The changes come after the district and its transportation contractor suspended 20 bus routes during the first week of school, leading to ongoing disputes about responsibility. School district officials are adjusting start times by 10 minutes or less, but some board members have expressed disappointment, stating that the adjustments may not effectively address the underlying problems.

Critics of AOC Barred from Chaotic Town Hall Meeting.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's town hall meeting in Queens turned chaotic as she was called a "piece of s--t" by critics who were barred from attending the event. The congresswoman was criticized for her support of illegal immigrants, U.S funding for Ukraine, and other lefty causes. Ocasio-Cortez's town halls have increasingly drawn hostile crowds, with frequent interruptions and hecklers. Last year, protesters crashed one of her town halls and chanted "AOC has got to go!" while she danced along to the beat.
