Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s plan to sue gang members and seize their property falters amid criticism over crime and civil rights – Chicago Tribune/MSN
Lightfoot’s inability to marshal enough support for a law she said was key to public safety reflects the broader challenge she has faced building strong relationships with other elected officials across the state. Aldermen frequently criticize the administration for a lack of communication and Lightfoot does not often lobby City Council members directly for their support.

NYPD just seized hundreds of ATV’s, scooters and motorcycles from reckless drivers, in one day. They will be sent to the crusher unless fines are paid, licenses obtained and insurance provided. Towing and storage fees added as well. Chicago can’t do the same thing?

I’m flabbergasted! Another big plan goes nowhere! She knew this was dead the minute it came out of her mouth. Just another avenue to blame. I tried, vote for me!
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.
