It is shameful that this is who represents the taxpayers in IL, among others.

The Illinois media should stop using quotation marks in this guy’s name. What’s the point? Is Chris part of his name, or isn’t it? Pick a name, and go with it.

Chances are it’s a nickname rather than his first or middle name legally. No charge.

Crises that few in Illinois know or care about. This is nothing more than court intrigue in the Democrat Party that controls the state with an iron fist.
