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.
ICE is hated for good reason. This is what the fuehrer would do.
How can anybody possibly be as stupid as you? Do you really think that kind of comparison accomplishes anything beyond generating disgust for you. If your comparison were right, the protesters and illegals would be dead or in concentration camps.
The anti ICE people never provide an alternative as to how the law should be enforced.
Insane sentiments like that coaxed a leftist into suicide by cop.
Hey Nina – Read this and tell me again how Immigrants are not criminals and enforcing the law is like the Gestapo. If the story of loss and unimaginable pain caused by a drunk useless lawless illegal immigrant who should have NEVER been here, does not make you mad and open your eyes to another point of view…you are beyond hope.

I bet she spent hours with her crayons to draw that picture and make the sign. A perfect democrat specimen. Next up. Finger painting but only with water colors in case she decides to eat it.
Do professional protesters get a pay bump for marching in inclement weather ?
They’re having so much fun, most of them will do it for free.
So, in this picture, the woman with her little dog in her giant bag there has a sign that refers to Law Enforcement as The Gestapo and that immigrants are not criminals. She is entitled to her opinion and free to state so, but she likely has no basis to compare US Law Enforcement to The Nazi Gestapo other than hearing elected officials state so, and she is correct, immigrants are not criminals…unless they are in our country illegally – then they are. Nice Fur coat – BTW. Be sure and stop for a Latte on the way home. The… Read more »
She probably said her dog really enjoys coming to these rallies
I have a job you utter ultracrepidarian, I am the women in the picture with the dog and I’m a teacher. It was MLK day, which we have off and which I use for social advocacy and service. Get some empathy and respect for human beings
You are making the Gestapo comparison, equating all immigrants with illegal immigrants and you are a teacher? You are a disgrace. That dog is more sentient than you.
Damn, that is a $22 dollar word right there, did you get your thesaurus out to conjure that one up? That’s going to be the word-of-the-day. Should have known…a teacher with another day off – what a surprise. I have no respect or empathy for human beings who protest Law Enforcement doing their jobs, arresting, deporting and removing known illegal criminals from this country and trying to fix the problem created by Biden. 3,000 arrests of targeted known illegal immigrant criminals in MN alone. You’re welcome. I’d suggest you perhaps do some research on the actual people and families in… Read more »
Karen, based on your sign and the signs around you, it is you who are the ‘utter ultracrepidarian’. We should add ‘twonk’ and ‘muppet’ to describe you. In the old days, we would simply refer to you as a ninny.
Americans are free to be ignorami and you indubitably plummeted to the occasion.
Wow, we rarely get such a definitive confirmation of what we assumed from the photo.
Oh and my fur coat is thrifted, 60 bucks from goodwill, odd that you have an issue with that. Weird behavior from you all around. The only bitching on here is from you malcontent men. So strange you sit around writing these acrimonious comments you should probably get a job
Nina, I appreciate you joining the chat. I’m curious as to how you believe the US should enforce immigration laws? Are they the gestapo because they are enforcing existing law? Instead of just calling names, provide some examples as to how the US could enforce its border laws while also deporting people that are not allowed to stay? If you are upset with their tactics, why don’t you support local law enforcement working with ICE so that it will be less dangerous for ICE to perform their duties? It seems the anti-ICE crowd wants it both ways. Don’t cooperate with… Read more »
Lol, no issue with fur coats at all…it and your odd behavior just matches the profile of the man-hating-woman who are lost and need a cause. Be sure and march on Friday…it should be nice weather.
And there it is. Another malcontent woman angry at the world and taking it out on men. What a surprise. Tell us and shout it loud. How did the big bad evil white men hurt you. Put your “brain power” on full display for all to see. Does your husband know you feel that way? It’s just that the immigration laws have not changed under Trump. They are the same as before. The difference is that Trump is enforcing the law. My family were immigrants. They came here legally. People stealing into the country without permission are here ILLEGALLY. Are… Read more »
Are the rings from a thrift store?
“The only bitching on here is from you malcontent men.” – Nina The Professional Ultracrepidarian
“You people are gross individuals with so much hate, got off the internet and contributed to society instead of brining (sic) nothing to this world” – also Nina The Professional Ultracrepidarian
Nina, we appreciate your positivity and affection.
Perfect weather for the water cannons
Any word from the useful idiots re a house of worship being invaded based on a rumor? Anything about some tech dudes being attacked at lunch because one of them ( an anti- ICE op ) were supposedly ICE agents? Anything about the rampant waste exposed over and over and over again at the county, city and state levels? Nope, just stand there mouth breathing and listening to an uninformed Marxist that squeeks out the communist mantra every time he’s near a microphone. The rest of us are out earning a living.
You people are gross individuals with so much hate, got off the internet and contributed to society instead of brining nothing to this world
So sharing ideas online is wrong but standing out on the sidewalk is “contributing” to society. Blocking traffic and blowing whistles must be an even higher form of contribution. lol
Proof read, Nina! Can we please have the name of your school? I’d like to check their reading scores.
She’s the reason kids can’t read. She throws Gestapo around like she knows what it was. Maybe she should look up NKVD and learn about torture?
She’s the poster child for the teachers union, a well trained minion spewing lies to children, god help us
Based on the enrollment decline at CPS and the shrinkage in the per cent of the building usage in the schools, I have an increased respect for the parents.
OMG. She thinks we are GROSS. Did this woman’s mental development cease at 12 years old?
We were transfixed by the affection on your signage.
An Ode to ICE protestors: First they came for the child rapists and pedophiles, and I did not speak out because I was too busy blocking ICE facilities in Bridgeview; Next they came for the murderers and drunk drivers, the ones who left families shattered on highways or bleeding out in alleys, and I stayed silent because shouting ABOLISH ICE felt more righteous than justice for the dead; Then they came for the rest of us— the neighbors, the parents, the ordinary people who once believed the slogans were about protecting the vulnerable, not shielding the predators who preyed on… Read more »
Nice story. Now, how about one that’s realistic!!??
Perhaps you would be nice enough to provide us the details of why the original post is wrong rather than tossing out a drive by strongly opinionated comment.
