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.
I wonder if there was a deal made….let you out if you agree to speak freely with current federal investigators
Too bad. That just cost Trump my vote. Don’t care who runs against him, I’ll vote for AOC before I vote for the jag that pardoned Bagof****,
I hope you reconsider. Does judging a successful presidency by one disagreeable action seem reasonable, especially considering the alternatives? Of course, if you disagree with Trump about many other things then by all means, look for alternatives. As for me, I like a high percentage of what Trump is doing so he has my vote locked up.
8 years for what Blago did is a long time. It was an excessive sentence. And the process of two trials was a bit much too. And the FBI and DOJ did some very, very wrong things, like destroy Blago’s brother’s life, with multiple nonsense process charges, just to mess with his life, and then ultimately dropped all charge against him. The consensus I get from everyone who isn’t a partisan is that 14 years was too long and most people, R and D, have been saying that since 2011.
