The [Wednesday] Papers"Cook County Commissioner Bridget Gainer, who's weighing whether to try to unseat Mayor Rahm Emanuel next year, already has done her part to boost City Hall's finances," the Sun-Times reports. "Records show that, since 2013, the three vehicles registered to Gainer's Lakeview home have been ticketed nearly 200 times for speed-camera, red-light-camera and parking violations." Whoa. That hardly even seems possible - I mean, given that Gainer is white. * "Gainer's family has paid more than $16,500 in fines over the past five years for a long list of infractions the City of Chicago has issued against their 2008 Toyota Highlander sport-utility vehicle and two BMWs - a 2011 BMW 328xi and a 2015 BMW 228xi." That's a bad look, but let's not jump to conclusions; surely Gainer has a reasonable explanation for what seems from the outside to be gross entitlement and obnoxiousness. "Gainer wouldn't answer questions about the tickets except to say by e-mail, 'These are family cars and all tickets have been paid.'" Oh. * Family cars, but public roads. I mean, it's like saying "These are family knives and the hospital bills of that dude I stabbed have been paid." * At least she didn't say "I'm juggling a lot like every other working mother." * The BMWs were not available for comment, but could be seen huddling with Gainer's million-dollar house. * Game over, Gainer. - New on the Beachwood . . .
