Think this can’t happen here?

In anticipation of predictable government seizure of political dissenters’ assets without due process, it would be wise to get caselaw on the books against a similarly-situated target which is of the politically protected class.

A qui tam lawsuit could be filed to claim City of Chicago’s damages inflicted by violent rioters and organized felony retail and auto theft.
Another qui tam lawsuit could be filed to claim State of Illinois damages inflicted by organized felony theft and fraud related to COVID-19 unemployment payments.

Scary indeed. I’m calling Edelman Financial this week to ask if my money is safe. TD Ameritrade rolled over and handed over all the customer accounts Canada asked to seize. But the off line crypto wallet company Nunchuk told them they couldnt because they don’t keep “accounts” with identity, just wallet keys. Told Canada to go pound sand basically. My Coinbase account I’m going to empty out and convert to personal wallet keys kept in a safe. This kind of crap is what causes Bank runs. Our kids will have to deal with the government able to access any bank… Read more »

Richard Irvin should use some of Ken Griffin’s money to hammer home the fact that Jabba used the children of this state as tools to enforce his control. Plenty of commercials with kids fully masked and miserable. People don’t like to see powerless children being abused.

All of this shows you how dangerous Freddie Pritzker really is to democracy and Illinois.

Why he has to be voted OUT in November.

No regard to the law. What shadow does he cast? A totally lawless society which we now have here. Everything of any substance corrupt.

The Dems need to mandate the end of the mandate before Tuesday, March 1st when Joe B. demonstrates how well he can read a teleprompter. Very important to get ahead of the State of the Union address, because the State of the Union is in disunion.

Choice is easy for the state of the union. He can walk to the podium and say. “You must wear masks” or he can say “You are free to choose”. His choice, but he’s cutting his own throat with the latter.

There is a trend going on in DC and several states. Those in power believe that they are above the law and act as such. Should opposition not rise up to oppose their actions, those wielding power win an easy victory. Our governor reminds me of Ahab. He was utterly obsessed to get the whale. To our Governor…your obsession over masks for children defies explanation. Please stop abusing our children. They are least likely in the entire population to get Covid and the least likely to die from it should they get it. At the end of the day, your… Read more »

Today it is mask mandates for children. Tomorrow it is frozen bank accounts and horses trampling old women.

It goes to show you how dumb Biden is. Fauci should be made to retire, or be fired. He’s still saying it’s too early to let up on masking the kids too. Even though we have at least 20 states where that show no danger from kids going mask less. I’ve been following what’s going on in Canada, and I think it’s entirely possible that we have some pols who would try that stuff here if they could. Only if you do t think there are some Republicans that have a fascist streak, you’re sadly mistaken. They said “follow the… Read more »

Fauci is rewarded by Biden because he went out of his way to make Trump look bad. He’s the only person leftover from the Trump era that is used for any real purpose by the Biden Junta.

Mark Glennon on AM560’s Morning Answer: Chicago pension buyout plan mostly shifts debt rather than eliminating it, property tax surge doubles inflation over three decades

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.
