Chicago Teachers Union contract demands are totally divorced from reality – Wirepoints

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.”
There are many many more to come. Look at these photos.

Is it unreasonable to ask why the only apparent benefit of this “immigration” to the average citizen is the emotional comfort from being so welcoming?
I just got a slice of pizza from my local pizza place and they’re getting multiple phone calls from people looking for food donations. This is in West Town Chicago. Madness!
Forcing the “Sanctuary City” virtue signalers to live by their own illegal rules is brilliant. Kudos to DeSantis and Abbott.
Leave it to the NYT to skip over – which is to say avoid – talking about the fact that everyone involved in this debacle, from the township dog-catcher to the DC grand high-n-mighty, claims that they don’t have any money to deal with it.
There’s that curious word “migrant” again. These are truly Orwellian times we are living in.
Absolutely spot on. Criminal Illegal Alien is the correct legal phrase. But if you avod this unpleasant phrase and use a different purposely inaccurate word, then the legal and illegal become blurred. And War becomes Peace, Ignorance becomes slavery and 2+2 = 5.
Change the language that’s right out of the Communists Manifesto the Democrats have been doing it for years Illegal Aliens changed to Migrants sounds so much less Threatening
“Invaders” seems to be the most appropriate descriptor.
DEPORTATIONS the most logical response.
Lots more surges to come. Columbia-Chile-Argentina-Brazil-Peru-Paraguay-Uruguay-Ecuador-Bolivia-Guyana-Suriname-French Guiana and Falkland Islands have yet to empty their countries. Then Africa.
