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.
Remember, kids, Illinois is broke. JB the Hutt is counting on ‘unexpected surplus revenue’ to buy off the pension mess. Where is The Hutt getting the cash to service the debt for this handout to the McCaskey Family?
More funny money from the Illinois legislative geniuses that will pay buddies of elected leaders and leave the bill to taxpayers. Their promises of 5,000 jobs, 50,000 jobs, or 5,000,000 jobs are not materializing.
And someone should tell JB the St. Louis Cardinals are now the Arizona cardinals that play in State Farm Stadium. That ship has sailed and you have to wonder if State Farm will go with them.
The Bears are gong to AH. Pure business decision. They get to keep ALL THE MONEY 💰.
Bears would be idiots to stay in this blue hellhole.
