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.
If Johnson and Pritzker spent half the energy looking out for Illinois citizens as they spend fighting Trump, both the city and the state would be in a lot better shape.It seems every time these two open their mouths it’s only to declare some new war they’re waging against Trump.
The single biggest thing these mopes could do to counter Trump would be to crack down on crime. Fix the ironically named SAFE-T Act, work to recruit police staffing to levels needed, continue the prosecution efforts of Burke, and get the courts into sensible hands ie not Evans. But that’s all abhorrent to these social justice warrior posers.
