Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
Illinois paid the price for embracing Fauci’s “science.” Here’s the retrospective.

This was a bad deal for the city from the start, and no upside for the new mayor– whoever it is. If it goes well Lori will run around trying to take credit for it. If it goes badly– with bad traffic, crime, shootings, etc.– the new mayor will get blamed for it. Plus, there is only so much July entertainment spending from the public, so NASCAR will take away from Lolla and Taste without a doubt. Just another great example of the ineptitude of the entire Lori administration.
