Details emerging about Chicago Teachers Union’s upcoming contract show just how divorced its demands, both extreme and expensive, are from the reality at Chicago schools. It’s not just about massive salary increases, but also about money for migrant students, climate initiatives, abortions and gender-affirming care. About blocking parental notification. Count on CTU’s demands to veer further from reality until the public finally says no.

Gov. JB Pritzker calls it “ethics” reform.
It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
That’s behind a paywall
The NYT lost me for good over a decade ago. I got a huge laugh after they insisted on Sam Bankman-Fried speaking at Deal Book Summit post bankruptcy implosion. They same folks that told us Sam Bankman-Fried was a good guy that “mad some mistakes” is now branding us xenophobes for refusing to sign off on a mother earth killing kickback orgy.
As one might expect from a NY Times article – Communist Chinese battery factory ‘good’, local deplorable rubes in opposition, motivated by misinformation and conspiracy theories, ‘bad.’
Did I mention that the elites hate you, deplorable?
