Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

The truth must be kept from not the DOJ, but from the voters.
Trump just wants to remove illegals and dead people from the voter rolls. What else could JB be worried about?
Dems will never allow voter registration information released. It will expose illegals and dead people voting and people voting more than once from multiple addresses. Same reason Democrats will not require voter ID. If they comply, voter fraud will be exposed and Democrats can’t cheat as much. This has nothing to do with privacy.
Don’t want to let the DOJ know where the voters are buried
Another pointless virtue signaling waste of taxpayer money from Kwaumie Raoul and JB.
