Lightfoot said she was prepared to walk out as Trump scorched “radical politicians” who provide sanctuary for “criminal illegal aliens” if he mentioned Chicago; instead he slammed New York and California.While Trump was met with a rousing welcome from Republicans, Speaker Nancy Pelosi tore up his speech when he was done.
The speech, Lightfoot said, “makes me more resolved to do everything I can to change the results in November.”
With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too
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.
Everybody needs a side hustle these days, and mine is Ukraine, where I am now.

Can’t wait until the law passes where citizens of the United States can sue municipalities and states that become “sanctuary” for criminal illegal aliens.

Chicago is the perfect example of liberal, progresive and socialist ideology slowly destroying its core…the taxpayer. It’s beautiful on the surface with it’s lakefront, skyscrapers, and parks, however if you look deeper the ugly debt, poor schools, and subpar everything else is easily seen.

She’ll resist. TDS is incurable.
Deep blue mayor of deep blue city vows to change election results in deep blue state. Someone tell her Illinois doesn’t earn more electoral votes by going a deeper shade a blue.
It’s her own party, not Trump, that is the source of all her city’s problems. Democrats.

Maybe, maybe. The neverSanders contingency seems to be growing every day. Most centrists democrats – the vast majority of the Democrat party – are strongly opposed to Sanders.

Heck, even Obama has made it clear that American needs some tweaking around the edges, not a full scale communist revolution. They can stomach all the other candidates, even Warren, but Sanders is a candidate too far. I personally know Democrats on the neverSanders train and they’re freaking out. Most neverTrumpers, a small contingent, came around… Read more »
I think the Iowa debacle is telling of what’s to come. They can blame “coding errors” all they want, but I’m getting some serious 2016 flashbacks here. You’re correct, though: Trump will steamroll whomever has the misfortune of facing him come November.
Lori, you suck! No one cares what you think.
