With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too

Audio and summary 
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.
Looks like a gathering of everyone who still subscribes to the Chicago Sun Times.
Golly. You cancel USAID and its slush fund money and the cash for paid demonstrators drys up. Taxpayer funded “fiery but mostly peaceful’ protestors is extinguished. The Democrats AKA Communists only paid campaign protestors now are the scum thieving parasites of SEIU, CTU and AFSCME.
The guy in the green shirt has a look like someone told him Beyonce was going to be performing. Only to realize it was Brandon instead.
I have 10 dozen tomatoes rotting in my hot garage waiting for da next protest!!
Once these deadbeats get thrown off the government tit and have to start earning their own way we won’t see much of them anymore
What a waste of time
Next protest may attract DOZENS!
If these protesters are for illegals, then put shelters and housing in their neighborhoods. Bet if that happened, they wouldn’t be pro illegals much longer.
Anyone else getting tired of these paid geezers and clueless unemployables protesting everything everywhere everyday? Enough, already.
Lots of Baby Boomers who never held a job long enough to qualify for Social Security or accumulate any assets still want to feel “relevant”.
That’s one way of putting it. Mine won’t be all that much different, but I’ll just say he’s not wanting himself or others in his general state of life to be considered “totally worthless” as those those younger and/ or in a better state of life sometimes are inclined to say.
That was my first thought. “Hundreds?” Seems like these anti Trump protests are losing steam, just like during his first term. He’s not going to resign or be impeached, his border policies are working, and there’s no recession in sight. And who’s going to miss work on a Thursday afternoon to protest except government employees and union workers. Haven’t read anything either about all the suburban protests that were promised.
Like the whiny children they are, they are trying to wear down the adults in the room with a constant barrage of noise. A solid week of plus 90 degree temperatures will put the kabosh on that.
only a couple 100 protesters? where were the 1,000’s of CTU are red shirt hero strong????….oh, sorry I forgot, they got their giant contract $$deal$$ signed and sealed…and it’s summer, so anybody who’s anybody ain’t here….just us chubalones trying to pay the bills
