A mess of uncertainty and litigation is sure to follow.
With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too
Probing the bottom of the monkey barrel. Even if they go that far in, there’s not enough “grease” to get him out — even if he’s naturally slippery. Perhaps there’s a sumo wrestler in Hawaii to balance the ticket. I’ll ask Obama and get back to you.
Everything that Pritzker does is to polish up his “credentials” for that 2024 Presidential race. He will claim to be a financial genius for saving Illinois budget (with Federal Wuhan Virus bail-out money stolen from the rest of the US). He will claim to be “toughest hombre” in enforcing Wuhan Virus mandates and saving millions of Illinois citizens lives during the pandemic. He will claim to be a climate savior with his sycophant IL state government’s legislation. Pritzker is richer than Bloomberg and Pritzker reasons that he can certainly do better than Bloomberg did in 2020 with all that more… Read more »
Ruh-roh,,What happens with Illinois dems newly passed giant green energy bill if all the fed bbb $bucks$ that bill’s dependent on don’t materialize? if dems get cold feet in dc after Virginia?

A midwestern governor with plenty of money for campaign financing, good Progressive bona fides getting better every day, and no substantial record open to criticism may be able to win the Dem nomination.

Fat Man based upon his record in Illinois.
Sleepy Joe answered the bell in 2020?
Ah the luxury of the effete, inherited generational wealth, billionaire socialist class. Wake up people these globalists are the new royalty and a climate based economy is their new way of immiserating you into global neo-feudalism. China is their model, Nixon, Kissinger, Bush 1, Clintons / Walmart, Bush 2, Obama, all coddeled China. One guy didn’t, guess who that was?
You are spot on with the Climate Change farce as the new feudalism. With the screeching Greta Thornberg as their lord high executioner. Or court jester. I’m not sure which.
Does anyone listen to this guy? Does he really have advocates? Or just sycophants?
What a huge waist… Sorry, waste.
Hope it’s a one way trip. How much methane will he spew out from both ends when he gives his speech? Lots and Lots.
This is an event made for Jabba. He flies in, makes grandiose statements that can’t be validated, and flies out. Of course he’ll take the opportunity for a picture with noted climate change expert Greta before he leaves.
