Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
Art Institute’s reputation has already been tarnished by former payroll manager who embezzled more than 2 million dollars over a 12-year period. And let’s not forget the firing of docents at the Art Institute. Dedicated volunteers were dismissed for no good reason. Every major organization/school system/museum in Chicago has been tarnished by scandals and corruption. It is the Chicago way.
Yup, I weep no tears for the Art Institute because of those reasons… another former gem (I was a proud member for many years) gone to woke “seed”, so screw ’em…!!!
So the Institute that virtue signaled for all to see and hear by ceremoniously canning long time employees because activists told them to are refusing to return property to its rightful owners. How progressive/ Marxist.
