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.

This law might come back to bite them in the butt, as hundreds of thousands of downstate votes magically appear with no postmark days after the election. Oh look, Henry County, population 50,000, somehow had a turnout of 220,000 votes this election, all of which were for Bailey and appeared 10 days after the election without postmark. Sorry JB, you lost, and you can’t argue fraud either, nope you can’t, you’ll put democracy… Read more »
