'The MAGA agenda isn't an agenda about freedom – it's about fear,' Pritzker said from the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) post 1991 in Miami, Florida. 'Everyone in this Republican primary believes in this agenda.' 'They might try to dress it up in different ways – in boots, in high heels or a red tie – but it's all the same,' he said to laughter from the few attending the press conference along with a room-full of press.
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.

“Less kind to JB than Wirepoints commenters”? Hoo, boy.
Pretty much the same type of comments that are posted here. Lots of insults about his weight and various other name calling but nothing of substance.
Fatso is a huge hypocrite taking a swipe a someone’s height while he has a BMI of 60. The dude is so fat he fractured his leg just standing under his own weight.
And JB is only 5’6″ or 5’7″ himself. He’s the same height as his wife, is according to random sources is 5’8″, so subtract two inches for embellishment and you get 5’6″, 5’7″ at best. DeSantis lists his height at 5’11” but pictures of him she he is really only about 5’7″.
Bruce Rauner is 6’3″ supposedly. So JB is a fat midget, he’s probably really even an inch shorter than his wife. JB is really an arrogant hypocrite.
I wonder if JB’s hair is even real. It’s clearly dyed. He’d be nearly all grey by his age.
A room full of press and no one bothered to ask JB a question about the disastrous State of Illinois? The media is useless.
Fear Governor? Like the fear people have walking the streets because of the crime rate? How about the fears over not getting the Covid shot? We know all about fear Governor and it seems to be coming from you and your party’s governance decisions.
