Jackson Park’s 'Gold Lady' could look like a million again, thanks to a planned restoration The $1 million job includes repairing and removing the 24-foot statue's worn and flaking gold leaf and applying a new layer of the micro-thin substance over the entire work.

Happy to see that the Statue of the Republic in Jackson Park will get a restoration, hope there are long term plans in the works to make viewing her more pedestrian accessible and pleasant. Playing IRL Frogger while distracted by her beauty is a challenge. chicago.suntimes.com/architecture...

I Will Maiden, 1917

The Daily Caller on Threads: OPINION: We should do more than just require ID to vote. The Save Act is the least we should do. It’s rookie numbers. We should do far more. Way fewer people should be allowed to vote. Americans must meet two of three criteria to vote: 1. Be a net contributor to tax revenue 2. Own property 3. Be married with children… There’s also a graphic that says “in a fairer world 150 million Americans wouldn’t be allowed to vote.”

The mask is completely off. You can’t meet these people in the middle. We’re not working toward the same goals.

They hate America. They hate democracy. They hate freedom.

And they hate you.
