-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Summary and audio linked here.
Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension. Audio here.
Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

So much for the Constitution. So much for personal agency. So much for the 1st, etc. ad infinitum.
Even if the President retained office, the rot in our society would eventually elect this crew of socialist/communist morons. It is simply the result of math. 45%+ of our society is takers… All they needed was some guilty, reasonably (that is charity) educated folks to believe the nonsense of the media and, poof, our grand experiment in self-determination and freedom withers away.
But, thank GOD he (Bidumb) got that clear mandate… Let the HEALING begin… (I feel dirty even typing that tripe).
Agree the rot has set in. I believe President Ronald Reagan and Lady Margaret Thatcher were the last two great leaders in my lifetime. The UK has already gone to the dogs: Buffoon Boris just another liberal, deep state politician – as bad as our Governor really. Love the Bidump bit. People like me support President Trump knowing he was going to at least delay the rot setting in enough for my children. His win four years ago did make me evaluate a lot of my relationships. People who want to maintain my friendship as long as they get everything… Read more »
I wonder how many Democrats are thinking: “We filled out too many.”! President Trump knew they would do this. Trap? They filled out too many at the expense of ignoring the down ballots. Well, when turnout is 89 to 101 percent in places, it doesn’t look good. Dude! I said we do 10 each not 10 thousand each LOL. They panicked when they saw the huge crowds President Trump was getting, at his rallies, and went too far. Spinning too many plates, you lose track of things right?………… Hold the line Patriots. https://www.investmentwatchblog.com/it-appears-trump-has-at-least-3-paths-to-victory/ God Bless America.

Yeah, it is super easy to pull ‘ballots’ that only are marked for Biden with no other votes on them – Very likely will be disqualified. The tracking of the ‘computer glitch’ in the Dominion software that oddly only switched votes to Biden and some other Democrats is also super easy to track – apparently that was used in 27 states. Before this is over, Republicans may win the House.
100% agree.
Whether you are Democrat or Republican does not matter here. Free and fair elections are the bedrock of a Constitutional Republic. Our future is at stake.
Time for the swamp to be really drained, and it will. It will not be easy and we may need SCOTUS help.
Hold the Line.
Biden didn’t win yet, he is the projected winner for reasons we all know about. Forget dead people voting, 90-105% voter turnout in certain states? LOL, even Obama elections were 57-61% turnouts. You have to go back to 1900 to break 70% and supposedly in ALL of the United States, not just in the cheat states, and 2020 shows over 70%. I wonder why.
Day after media declares Biden has won, not one outlet reported on Covid-19 deaths!!!!!!!!!
Covid-19 was all ‘Orange Mans’ fault.
Never accept an Olive Branch from a thief, liar, a communist!
Never, Biden, Lightfoot, Pritzger, and all the other Crooks
After the Fog of Fraud clears, President Trump Wins, you know what happens to the City.
Time to Clean the Voter Rolls in Illinois, any resistance immediately goes to the Supreme Court.
“Chuck Schumer pushing for $50K of student debt to eliminated by executive order in Biden’s first 100 days.”

It is not over yet. Pray and have faith. Will the greatest Nation on earth be in the hands of a seriously demented, thoroughly corrupt pedo-pervert and a stupid, cackling slut? I doubt it. Unless suicide becomes more popular than it is.
the media does not declare the winners, last time I looked. The race is being disputed by Pres Trump , so no, Biden is not the winner. There were huge irregularities such as slugs of Biden votes showing up in the middle of the night, and other strange and illegal things like blocking GOP observers. In fact, federal law requires all ballots to be in by 8 PM that night, which was not the case (hundreds of thousands of votes showed up in the middle of the night, ALL biden…hmmm). Federal law was violated in many, many places here. The… Read more »
Individual state law defines when a ballot can be received. In Illinois, as long as it is postmarked by Election Day, a ballot may come in and be counted up to 14 days after Election Day. In Wisconsin, it must be in by 8PM
Except that only the legislature can make voting laws which the governors changed the law to allow mail in ballots. Mail in ballots is not normal. So federal law overrides these governors. Going to scotus . Watch.
Yup. Why else would we see a seemingly rogue Alito do and say what he has?
As a side note, Oregon conducts elections entirely by mail.
Vote by mail in Oregon was approved by voters.
It’s official – The virus hoax is over – mission accomplished. Give us our state back JB!
Looks like a superspreader event to me. What is wrong with these people? Why do they want everyone to die from Covid-19?
They aren’t social distancing. The only reason senile joe and blm Kamala we’re elected was by fraud and those who refuse to work. Joe won’t last a year until he’s forced out and he’s too stupid to know it. He is unfit to be president.
I too think Biden will not make it past a year and then Harris will be President…it’s all going to plan.
Valerie Jarrett back in office
Did anyone play basketball?
Sheep don’t understand pyrrhic victories.
The media does not elect the President.
Fox News, ABC, MSDNC, CORRUPT NEW NETWORK do not elect the president.
It is not dead people that elect the president.
There are suits before courts for re-counts.
He may be gone (I don’t foresee these court challenges going anywhere) but if Republicans hold the senate executive orders will be his only tool as big legislation such as packing the court, tax increases and any liberal reforms will be hamstrung by Senate. Then when disillusioned Democrat voters don’t come out during mid-term elections Republicans can take the House making ole Joe a lame duck President his final 2 years..
Its all about who wins the 2 Georgia Senate runoffs now, that’s the last chance the Illinois machine’s got for a giant fed bailout for all their pre-covid debt. Or to be more precise, its all about trying to win over a few Atlanta suburban swing voters and independents. Its going to be a neck-en-neck dog fight (sure jb will be pouring in millions, maybe Illinois unions as well). If your on are side than republicans have to be making the case ASAP that those few votes are the difference between sensible compromise federal government and crazy Sanders/ AOC socialism.… Read more »
The media does not elect the president.
He gone? Guy holding sign must be a CPS graduate.
The last that I heard, the U.S. Supreme Court was looking into the matter…
The U.S. Supreme Court doesn’t hold investigative powers. The only way this comes before them is through the judicial process of lower courts hearing the matter first.
which Trump is challenging and filing lawsuits, so yes, this will go before the SCOTUS.
Yes sir.
