Audio and summary 
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 didn’t get to watch it, but the highlights suggest he (and the rest) said nothing, which really was expected – giant waste of time. Of note, it was mentioned that the nutty mayor of Boston spent $650,000 in tax dollars on her prep-ing for the meeting. I wonder what Pin-head spent.
A discussion involving the major thinkers of our time, MTG, AOC, Boebert and Brandon Johnson, is a hilarious prospect until you remember all of them managed to get elected. Somewhere Jerry Springer will be laughing hard.
Just watched his opening statement in front of of the House committee. Holy cow! Chicago is the new Wakanda! The first question he is asked should be, “ Mayor there was a recent poll asking about your performance as mayor. What positive percentage did you get?”
Brandon and Boston “mayor” Wu are *already* stonewalling andprevaricating under the withering questions about whether they’d turn hardened illegal criminals over to ICE, lol…!!!
Wiggle out of every question? Nah. He will only display his word salad foolishness. After his testimony, Stacy Davis Gates will proudly tell him, “You answered every question, Brandon!”
