Ted joined Shaun Thompson to talk about about the Chicago Teachers Union’s absurd new contract demands, why so many Chicago teachers are chronically absent, and Brandon Johnson’s failed first year as mayor.
What a representation of Chicago’s plight.
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.

Remove your toilets, get a break
I’ve often wondered just how mendacious and silly a statement Pritzker would have to make such that an overwhelming number of Illinois’ citizenry would (finally) rise up and call B.S. on the Governor.
“Today I’d like to announce that my administration has calculated the square root of Pi, determined the true size of the galaxy, cured cancer, and found Jimmy Hoffa’s body.”
Mmmm, nope. I don’t think that would even do it.
Too many of us prefer being lied to.
A LOT of people pretend, particularly those on the taxpayer nipple.
Yep, exactly correct. Sadly, too many taxpayers pretend they’re OK with it.
They are too lazy to even realize they are being lied to…
Indoctrinated to believe anything the leftist state tells them…
Pritzker’s so called tax breaks are like band-aids on a massive head wound. Essentially worthless and so small they do absolutely nothing to address the real need. He knows this but he is desperate for something, anything really, to try and distract the voters from the truth. Democrat progressive policies have been an unmitigated disaster.
Remove the toilets from your home and reap huge tax breaks. Ain’t that right JB?
