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.
Our tax money is supporting a gaggle of loonies.
Good God. Why does this have the be the responsibility of the Tax Payers? Who in the world thinks that this sort of crap is somehow the Tax Payer’s responsibility? It does not make sense.

And the Illinois political animals who put their talking points through the useless Chicago media have been feeding them points to the effect there is no way out of their intentionally created fiscal fiasco other than massive tax hikes.
Nay nay!
There are lots more of these profligate wastes of taxpayer funds. Illinois needs a top to bottom DOGE makeover.
Absolutely infuriating.
