With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too

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.
Maybe Johnson’s next step will be to erect monuments and statues of famous Chicago criminals, serial killers, thugs in hoodies carrying guns, …etc. After all, they should be glorified since they were only “living out their pain.” In Johnson’s world, the crime victims are the ones who are forgotten. No justice will ever prevail here. No one in custody, still under investigation, no arrests have been made…..
Today I heard him call it a “layered approach”. What exactly does that look like in practice? I loved watching Lightfoot’s, virtue laden, dripping-with-emotion press conferences, it seems Johnson is going to take the rhetorical nonsense to a whole new level. Fascinating to listen to the Left.
I don’t want to sound conspiratorial, but if you wanted to create a police force separate and distinct from CPD, you couldn’t just legislate a new police force; but instead, you would create a crisis response force, that eventually morphs into a fully armed, and woke, law enforcement arm. CPD is slowly defunded and the ‘crisis responders’ grow until they are the primary law enforcement in Chicago.

I got your plan Johnson. Ready? Enforce the law! That’s your plan Johnson; go tell it on the mountain.
