Brandon Johnson’s campaign has had problems adhering to the rule previously. After accepting numerous contributions from city contractors and others — money that probably shouldn’t have been accepted under city ethics rules — Johnson’s campaign fund refunded more than $50,000 late last year.
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.
Johnson is perfectly willing to hire thugs and take money from any shady outfit that offers it to him. That shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.
