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.

These are the same people who marched in the street shouting BLM and “defund the police”. How’d that work out for Chicago? Chicago had 4,174 shot and/or killed in 2020, mostly black and brown people. Do you think any of these @$$***** know that!?. What a joke, Liberals are rotten citizens.

“No Kings”? These same Liberals wanted Obama to be a King. This CNN story from 2012 proves it: “What’s clear is that the liberals speaking out don’t want a president, they want a king. Albeit a liberal king – but still a king, who would be unrestrained by Congress as well as the checks and balances enshrined in our Constitution. These disenchanted liberals apparently wanted Obama – upon taking office – to have instantly transformed every campaign promise into law by the simple wave of a pen. Or maybe they would have preferred Obama to have walked out onto a… Read more »

These virtue signal puppet shows only underscore the priorities of the Democrat party:
— open borders
— career criminals
— gender goblins
— bloated government
— climate panic
— Gaza
— identity politics race hustlers
No wonder the Democrat party is polling at its lowest levels in decades.
Same old song and dance. Brought to you by the same old communists.
Gosh, there are thousands of leftists in Chicago who hate Trump? Who knew?
