Details emerging about Chicago Teachers Union’s upcoming contract show just how divorced its demands, both extreme and expensive, are from the reality at Chicago schools. It’s not just about massive salary increases, but also about money for migrant students, climate initiatives, abortions and gender-affirming care. About blocking parental notification. Count on CTU’s demands to veer further from reality until the public finally says no.

Gov. JB Pritzker calls it “ethics” reform.
It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
Alabama already has a Mercedes EV plant. LG and Honda are partnering to build an EV plant in Ohio. All the other states got legit companies to build or expand their EV footprints. Illinois has to beg for some Foxconn wannabee.
The CCP must have bribed the Illinois and Michigan local officials better than they bribed the local Alabama officials.Pritzker is just a ‘useful idiot’ in this heist.
Sure, if you need to bribe a state and its government, IL and Pritzker and MI and Whitmer are great candidates. Democrat dominated states. Meanwhile, the red hick states have a little more patriotic backbone.
