So shouldn’t Texas have been undercounted significantly. Look at all the illegals I mean undocumented that are there, does Texas get credit for them?

JB the Hutt wants to use fake numbers to shield Illinois from its population decline in real numbers. He’s at least consistent, since he and his fellow leftists use fake temperature data to gin up the Climate Crisis hoax. Maybe he and his fellow grifters should be paid in extrapolated dollars, rather than borrowings from the Illinois treasury. JB the Hutt is sure that even though their paychecks will come from fake dollars, he and his fellow grifters will be just fine, since everyone is a trust fund baby, just like him.

Shameless.

Misery loves company, and there’s certainly a lot of both here. Complaining is so much fun and far easier than doing something constructive to make your own life better. Too much effort is required for that.

Using that same math logic, Governor Fat-Ass owes Cook County for his toilet tax dodge.

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. Pritzker’s ‘ethics reform’ eliminates competitive elections and choice for voters – Wirepoints on AM 560 Chicago’s Morning Answer

Ted joined Dan and Amy to talk about a new law passed by the Democratic supermajority and signed by Gov. J.B. Pritzker that results in brazen election interference, keeping Republicans off ballots; about a referendum that tests the waters for a renewed progressive income tax hike; about how the Parental Notification referendum question was knocked off the ballot; and why laws like that pass so easily.

Chicago needs more champions of literacy like Willie Wilson – Wirepoints

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.”
