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.
For those interested in our historical system of checks and balances put in place by the Founders and with great stewardship was advanced over the decades as fundamental governance at local and state and federal levels, what Pritzker has done by granting himself ‘executive orders’ (rubber stamped by a super majority of his political party in the legislature) and then striking down individual rights is pretty darn scary. Honestly, I can only think back to when America was a colony of England when such malfeasance of liberty occurred.
The 7th Circuit is a pretty good and fairly conservative federal appeals circuit, all things considered. It’s the federal court of appeals for WI, IN and IL. It’s based in Chicago but hears all federal appeals from as far north as Superior, Wi, as far west as Galena, as far south as Cairo and as far east as Lawrenceburg, IN.
Slap the Dictator down!
He thinks he is God.
He can go out with many and protest but those that want to worship it is not right.
