Editorial: There’s a law-enforcement lesson behind political back-and-forth – Champaign News-Gazette*

"There is something else that Chicago is not — a safe city. Violent crime is a continuing threat to the people there, and the longer Gov. JB Pritzker and Mayor Brandon Johnson pretend that it isn’t, the more credibility they will forfeit. Johnson, of course, doesn’t have any credibility to spare. Pritzker, on the other hand, is a respected public figure who would be well advised to acknowledge the crime problem and work with Johnson to address it."
