The bill passed despite their votes in response to certain incidents where local prosecutors are thought to have been too lenient with non-citizens assaulting cops.
The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board cited Wirepoints’ analysis of Chicago student proficiency data in their latest piece condemning the Chicago Teachers Union’s outrageous contract demands…all while a vast majority of Chicago’s children graduate unable to read at grade level.
Ted joined Tom Miller of WJPF to talk about the details of Gov. Pritzker’s proposed $52 billion budget, why the state is struggling now that federal covid dollars have run out, the controversy surrounding Tier 2 government pensions, why Illinois’ expensive education system fails to teach children to read, the outrageous demands of the Chicago Teachers Union, and more.
Ted joined Jeff Daly to discuss how politicians can never spend enough on education despite there being no accountability for that spending, the growth of education staffing across Illinois, Mayor Brandon Johnson’s $1 billion demand for Chicago schools, why Gov. Pritzker is providing $830 million in taxpayer subsidies to struggling EV carmaker Rivian, and more.
Neither are good for Illinois.
Ever wonder what
s wrong with the State of Illinois just read the comment left by Chase a total IGNORAMUS other than an obvious PUBLICITY STUNT Erich Muller isnt a reincarnation of Jesse Ventura Erich has no chance in HELL of winning cause a guy on the radio with a side kick called TURD isn`t to be taken seriouslyI agree with Chase
He can win, Lori won the primary with 13% of the vote,and cause she is a dem. won the mayors spot. Get enough people to primary and anyone can win.
He is planning on running as an independent so it may be tough to win the primary. His only role if he stays in the race would be to dilute GOP votes. Sounds like a solid plan.
She won 75%+ of the total vote in run-off against Fuhrer Preckwinkle. Chicago collectively thought it was better to go with the devil you don’t know instead of the devil you do. And it’s tough to say now which one would have been worse, because they are both equally as awful.
What a sad choice. I forgot about the run-off. I just looked it up though,she got 17% in the primary, then 74% of the vote with a 33% voter turn out. Seems like Chicago gets what it deserves.
Trump has proven that it doesn’t matter what the party wants, or even what most of the people want. The more controversial and adversarial a candidate is towards the press and party leaders, the more popular they become. People are very gullible and like to hear what they want. They’ll select things they agree on and back someone who’s combative. It’s because the “real”, “established” pols are hacks. Trump is special though. Mancow isn’t a skilled enough conman to do the job.
You need some serious help with your mental health. You have TDS. You cannot get trump out of your head. You have lost your ability to think about anything other than Trump.
Debtsor stole my comment. You are a bot. You need serious mental help. Stay away from your internet browser.
1. You can’t use font correctly.
2. I said he’s a better option than the tool Irvin. Nothing more.
3. Learn to read and type.
Mancow is a much more realistic option than Griffin’s pet project.
Agreed
Mancow is a conservative, Irvin, another lightfoot/preckwinkle
Irvin strikes me as a typical IL politician who sticks his finger in the air and determines which way the wind is blowing; and if Obama and JB are the new, shiny things in politics, that’s where he goes. Irvin may have $300,000,000 of Griffin’s funds but he won’t make it out of the Republican primary if he’s not saying mask and vaccine mandates gone on day 1 of his campaign via executive order. If he says this (and every Republican candidate will be saying this too), then maybe there might be some cross over from the Black and Hispanic… Read more »
