Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

When reviewing battle plans, keeping two traitors such as The Turdbin and Duckworthless, out of the loop is the only prudent course to take.
Can we lock them out of the Senate too???
Good. These two have the intellectual brain power of two pigeons. They would add nothing to the meeting just like they have added nothing to civic life over their entire careers.
Those two are putting up a nice front. Hoping voters forget how they just follow the dem rulebook and collect paychecks
Thank goodness Durbin is leaving, but he needs to take Duckworth with him. De is useless for IL US citizens. Unfortunately the Democrats running for Durbin’s seat are worse. Vote them Republican for every IL race.
Why should two communists like D&D be included in a meeting with DHS? So that they can learn the plan and alert all of their illegal friends? I don’t think so!
If they tell you the woke media will know 5 seconds later !!! Rubin is leaving time for Duckbill to go too!! Was she in her wheelchair for the O, woo is me ???
The drug kingpin enabler and “ Wrongway “ the pilot have no business being in the room. They would run right out and blab the details to derail the whole operation.
