🚨AURORA’s Election 2025 has united President Trump, Governor Pritzker, former President Obama and many more across party lines to throw out corrupt and wild spending so-called mayor Richard Irvin.

On Friday, Chicago Tribune’s front page story featured the support of Governor Pritzker for JOHN LAESCH to take out Irvin, who ran for Illinois governor in 2022 and was obliterated in the primary by special forces despite having $50 million and full rubber stamp of the political mafia.

“It’s not just Democrats or Republicans who want to throw out Richard Irvin, but it’s anyone who values taxpayers, ethics, competence and opposes corruption, wild spending and turning the city into a cesspool” said a senior advisor to oust Irvin and save Aurora.

President Trump endorsed Irvin’s opponent Darren Bailey in 2022 and sources confirm the White House is considering adding the City of Aurora to lawsuits and withholding of federal funds over Irvin’s sanctuary city policy, COVID lockdowns and massive corruption.

“Trump is fully aware Richard Irvin is a fake Republican who hates Trump and called him a racist and voted against him” said a White House senior official and added “we know Irvin is planning to run for US Senate, if he is re-elected as mayor so best is he is instead thrown out now. Aurora should not continue another day with Irvin.”

Irvin has been chronically running for mayor since 2005 including against Tom Weisner. Then US Senator and later President Barack Obama repeatedly opposed Irvin and called out Irvin for being a fake Republican. An aide to Obama confirmed he continues to oppose Irvin.

Some local Republicans in Aurora have expressed they don’t agree with John Laesch on specific policy issues but as one former elected official told us “these are the two choices we have and one of them (Irvin) is proven to be corrupt, wild spending and sinking Aurora into massive debt. It will get much worse if Irvin is allowed to continue.”

Irvin is only a “Republican” in name said another GOP official. He not only supports open borders, crime, corruption and high taxes but also trans ideology and men playing in women’s sports.

Laesch got 31% of the primary vote compared to 34% for Irvin among five candidates so if all opposition to Irvin consolidates, Laesch can win the nonpartisan general electiob on April 1st.

Negative views of Irvin dominate the electorate with over 95% either voting for someone else or none of the above by not voting at all.

Irvin’s constant stream of scandals, including pay to play corruption, private jets and dozens of women he has s*xually exploited are not helpful to him.

City employees have said there is an “uprising” that was happening but got accelerated when Irvin had longtime highly respected former city employee KEN MAURICE arrested for refusing an Irvin campaign sign.

“People are tired of seeing the nonstop circus and corruption with Richard Irvin and they want someone to restore basic ethics and integrity” according a city employee.

Can John Laesch get enough people to throw out Irvin and end the circus, corruption and brothel at city hall?

Election 2025 is April 1.

🚨 AURORA - Richard Irvin, the sleazy corrupt “Mayor Diddy” of the city has a replacement bimbo (his word) named Nilda Melendez after dumping furniture store owner Laura Ayala.

In late 2023, Irvin appointed this latest bimbo to one of the many useless city “commissions” on entertainment even though she did not live in Aurora at the time.

Melendez, who has been using a fake name and alias to allegedly get taxpayer funds from the city in exchange for her “relationship” was recently seen dancing at an Irvin campaign event.

Irvin has had inappropriate s*xual relationships with multiple women connected to city hall or those seeking taxpayer funds and is well known by staff to target women for s*x and frequently take them on drug-infused luxury trips on private jets provided by corrupt campaign contributors.

Melendez has been actively attacking critics of Irvin and allegedly operated events without a liquor license, which is controlled by the city’s liquor commissioner, who is also the so-called mayor.

🚨 AURORA is on track to hit ONE BILLION DOLLARS of high interest debt due to wild spending by corrupt so-called mayor Richard Irvin. He is currently spending over $2 million of your money per DAY.

Election 2025 is April 1st - taxpayers cannot afford another minute of Richard Irvin. Share with your friends and neighbors. Save your city.

15/03/2025

🚨 AURORA - so-called mayor Richard Irvin has made the City of Aurora “second to none” for corruption in Illinois.

Irvin points to the failing “eastbank” project where he gave almost $15 million of your taxpayer funds in exchange for campaign contributions from the infamous Rezko crime family, the same ones involved in corruption scandals in Chicago with Barack Obama and Rod Blagojevich that resulted in the elder Rezko going to prison.

Now, his son Danny is leading the next chapter of corruption in a city where corruption is welcome.

Irvin claims developers would not invest in Aurora unless we “give them money” to do it and it’s just a “coincidence” they give him money in contributions.

10/03/2025

🚨 AURORA - so-called mayor Richard Irvin has boasted about spending millions on “technology” schemes to connect kids to the internet, as if government will do what companies like Comcast or Starlink can’t.

Has anyone been connected to Little Richard’s internet service? Nobody?

Education quality continues to sink in Aurora, with East Aurora 131 leading the way to the bottom as Irvin and teacher unions fight to continue DEI, status quo and ripping off taxpayers.

Meanwhile in China, where they were already doing well on STEM, they are boosting AI education for kids.

🚨 AURORA | CHICAGO | WASHINGTON DC - Congress slams so-called mayors like Brandon Johnson of Chicago and Richard Irvin of Aurora as legislation is coming soon to cut all federal funding and grants to SANTUARY CITIES that defy federal immigration law and refuse to cooperate with law enforcement.

Aurora and Chicago are full of dangerous criminals who have received benefits at your taxpayer expense.

We urge the Trump DOJ to also arrest, jail and prosecute any mayor or governor who obstructs justice, starting with Richard Irvin, Brandon Johnson and JB Pritzker.

Every normal person who saw President Trump honor 13 year old brain cancer survivor DJ Daniel at the joint address to Congress was moved - except for Democrats attending and left wing media.

Seriously, what is wrong with them?

We should note DJ has had 13 surgeries and continues to endure challenges.

There are children across America and the world we hope will be encouraged to stay strong from this moment for DJ and for everyone to recognize the value of humanity for all.

🚨 AURORA - East Aurora Council AFT Local 604 teachers union protested the Trump admin’s plans to reform education funding and crackdown on DEI ideology across education, including at East Aurora 131, AMERICA’s WORST SCHOOL DISTRICT.

How successful are these teachers at preparing students?

East Aurora High School
Test Score Proficiency:

➡️ Math - only 7% of students
➡️ Reading - only 8% of students

And what does the teachers union mean when they say we need more “diversity” when this is the current breakdown for the district?

➡️ Hispanic 87.2%
➡️ Black 7.7%
➡️ White 2.6%
➡️ Two or more races 1.4%
➡️ Asian or Pacific Islander 0.6%
➡️ American Indian 0.4%
➡️ Native Hawaiian or Other 0.1

(source: US News rankings)

Even if you don’t live in the East Aurora School District, remember you are paying for this and all its negative and costly consequences.

On Monday, instead of focusing on education, teachers and staff protested at building faculty meetings and showed up at East Aurora’s board meeting. The following morning, union members met outside before school and then staged a “walk-in” at Hermes Elementary School in Aurora.

Becky Roireau, the union’s president and a former fifth-grade teacher at Hermes Elementary, referred to this moment as a “fork in the road” claiming the new Department of Education’s emphasis on encouraging alternate choices like charter schools, threatens the status-quo of rotten education quality at massive taxpayer expense.

Trump administration issued orders to end DEI policies in education within two weeks or risk losing federal funding.

East Aurora Council AFT Local 604 represents over 1,300 teachers, support staff and office staff in the district, and is affiliated with the Illinois Federation of Teachers, a political mafia organization that routinely bribes politicians and exploits taxpayers.

During the corrupt regime of Aurora’s so-called mayor Richard Irvin, who barely graduated from East Aurora thanks to cheating, education quality has further plummeted while taxes and spending have skyrocketed.

When asked why East Aurora is the worst school district in America, city spokesman Clayton Muhammad, who was previously the overpaid “community relations director” for East Aurora as a DEI token, responded with only “EeeeeA.”

We urge students, parents and taxpayers to demand the school district end DEI, tell the teachers union to focus on their jobs or quit…and toss out Richard Irvin on April 1st so we can start to save our community, children and improve education.

🚨 AURORA Alderman Rick Lawrence slams so-called mayor Richard Irvin for failing to resolve recent false arrest of former city employee Ken Maurice for refusing to allow Irvin campaign sign on his property.

Sources say Irvin, who was AWOL from city council, was on another travel junket with corrupt city contractors.

Mr. Lawrence also called out Carl “Shorty” Franco, the alderman of Ken Maurice, for failing to reach out to his constituents but having time to “dance on a stage” with the corrupt mayor on primary election night last week.

City council clowns Patty Smith, Ron Woerman and city “spokesman” Clayton Muhammad who all endorse corruption also danced on the same stage with Irvin to celebrate over 95% of eligible voters refusing to vote for Irvin.

🇺🇸 Six weeks after President Trump was inaugurated, America is reversing the disaster of the last four years and getting back to the future.

🚨 AURORA taxpayers are drowning from wild spending, corruption, taxes and skyrocketing debt by so-called mayor Richard Irvin. Voters can stop his madness on April 1 for Election 2025 but they need to take action before it’s too late.

In 2025, Richard Irvin will spend $765 million of your money, 3X more than when he first started.

02/03/2025

🚨 AURORA - so-called mayor Richard Irvin and his bi**os (his words) have been given dozens of luxury trips on private jets with corrupt city contractors and campaign contributors who get MILLIONS in taxpayer benefits in exchange.

Some of these trips have been to Mexico and included illegal drug use while Irvin was ordering the public in Aurora to stay at inside during the pandemic while he partied with the corrupt.

🚨 Illinois

01/03/2025

Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel on why mayors like Brandon Johnson of Chicago have an approval rating of only 6.6% (in Aurora, Richard Irvin’s approval rating is even worse at less than 5%).

During Irvin’s tenure as Alderman at Large and Mayor, schools and education quality in districts like East Aurora District 131 have plummeted while he spends millions on cronies, contractor and bi**os.

Neither Aurora nor Chicago have had any competent leadership for the past 20 years.

28/02/2025

🚨 Washington DC - Zelensky disrespects United States and tries to sabotage American efforts to sign mineral rights deal as critical first step toward peace deal with Russia to end bloodshed, destruction, massive cost and risk of WW3.

Trump and Vance correctly slam Zelensky back for resisting diplomatic solution for the entire world to see.

Zelensky in Ukraine and Netanyahu in Israel were both given blank checks and unlimited weapons at American expense by the neocons and warmongers in the Biden administration that has cost US hundreds of billions
and killed thousands.

We applaud Trump for trying to end the madness, death, destruction and urge all Americans to be on the side of peace, not war.

Tell Congress to stop funding ALL warmongers and focus on prosperity for Americans.

🚨 AURORA - corrupt mayor Richard Irvin is giving your taxpayer funds to his friends to open a “soul food” restaurant at the dying Fox Valley Mall after it already failed in Bolingbrook.

So, why stop there if taxpayer money is unlimited?

We’re thrilled to announce we are soon launching the hit show SOUL TRAIN AURORA!

All we ask is $12 million of taxpayer funds per year ($1 million per month) and we will let Richard introduce every show under the condition he changes his hairdo (see comments) and supplies his “bi**os” (his words) as dancers.

🚇 SOUL TRAIN AURORA - COMING SOON!!!
