With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too

A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Read that since FDA-authorized Covid vax formulation isn’t yet available to public, that such “vax mandates” are technically unenforceable. Apparently government agencies can’t legally mandate a non-FDA approved medication. Currently-used Covid-shot formulation presently available to general public is not “FDA-approved”, only has “emergency” acknowledgment. Look it up.
Nice to see CPD standing up against the mob. It was refreshing to see the Southwest pilots do so as well. In my little world I try to stand up by never wearing a mask anywhere. I put the burden on the stores to confront me, they rarely do. Today I was told to put one on at Lenscrafters. I said I didn’t bring one should I stand outside while my wife brings me my new glasses? The guy said, well the store is empty except you two, thats ok. I never go to Cook County to spend money except… Read more »
I tell then at the doctors office that the chances of me being in contact with someone with Covid is 100% unless I was a hermit. Then I tell them I was also in contact with obese-skinny-tall-short-male-female people. I was also probably around people with high blood pressure-diabetes-cancer-male pattern baldness-over and under active thyroid-smokers-non smokers-some good looking-more not so good looking just the same you see everyday here at the doctors office. P.S. If they ask if I travelled I can honestly say I never left the planet!
Cops, firemen,nurses,doctors,military personal,you guys were the real heroes throughout the pandemic,and helped so many. Now shut up take the jab,or get lost.
ATTENTION! ATTENTION! All citizens. At the sound of the siren the PURGE will begin, good luck to all.
Back the Blue!
Go for it Lori! You got a big mouth and have destroyed this city!
CPD can’t fill beat cars as it is…
Suspending thousands of officers will = even more chaos than already exists…
Suburbs bordering Chicago better cinch up their chin straps, they could also be in for a bumpy ride…

Chaos is the point.
Yea, imagine the all out power struggle in 2024.
Voting for Lightfoot might have been a better choice at the time instead of voting for the Preckwinkle party. Today perhaps had Lightfoot not been elected things may have been, no matter how hard to imagine, been worse.
Lightfoot sees average CPD officer as expendable “cannon-fodder”, as folks without rights, who are expected to work 24/7 16-hour shifts, silenced and deplored, agency short-staffed, and oh, yet every CPD street-officer still mandated to be PC BLM-correct at all times to BIPOC. (Same criteria not applicable to CPD brass.) Lightfoot doesn’t extend same courtesy herself to BIPOC folks. Or to taxpayers at large. Nope, no “lead by example”. No moral compass. No leadership skills whatsoever. Nope, Lightfoot has proven herself to be a petty and quite remarkably despicable person. Ditto Foxx. Ditto Preckwinkle. Ditto JB. They make a mockery of… Read more »
Grab the popcorn folks because if this scenario comes true the forthcoming crap storm will be truly awesome
Standby for the National Guard with their broom sticks.
Will the National Guard be required to be vaccinated????
This provides Lori with shade when she asks for the Army! We’ve got to keep Chicago safe! If the NG is deployed with weapons, the gangs will simply rob them of their guns. This is going to be a dooozy!
Lori painting herself into a corner. A dedicated moron who likes to think one move to the future. Whaaat a dope!
yes she did!!
City of Chicago residents would be encouraged to remove their guns from their safes this weekend and keep a loaded clip nearby at all times. Things are going to get a little crazy when the police force is reduced by 50% but crime jumps 200%.
