Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
Only $65 million. He doesn’t expect much resistance from Bailey. Does he?
Why doesn’t he worry more about Illinois and less about races in North Carolina? That’s an awful lot to spend to show he commiserates with the common man’s struggles in IL. Regardless, his family is worth $45 billion so if he runs he’ll be expected to pay their presidential contributions back in the form of contracts and appointments.
Gotta pay off the Useless Media with his ad buys. Keeps the puff pieces and softball questions rolling in.
JB the Hutt’s ads are laughable at best but are a complete affront to truth in advertising.
Very unfortunate that 5 counties out of 102 will elect this buffoon. 4 more years of taxation, executive orders, catering to the teachers unions, handouts to the I want my free shit crowd, putting illegals first agenda , and more anti 2nd amendment legislation. All this while the state is broke but the budget is balanced
Yes, so he can continue spending millions on ads that are complete lies.
Balanced budget, what a laugh.
