Summary and audio linked here.
Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

Funny how it’s always Democrat voters being arrested for crimes.
I think we’re at 100% all of the time.
By the reported names of the suspects I would,dare to say that they are the usual suspects. Multiple crimes by career criminals. The democrats love these guys!
Jail time or monitoring before trial ? With Evans and his Kim Foxx agenda out will we see criminals being incarcerated?
Lots more of this to come in the future. This is the only job skills taught in the CPS. Businesses are leaving in record numbers, so no other job opportunities other than crime.
Good. More arrests, please.
