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.

I was a big fan of AK when he first came on the scene. Since he now follows the commie pinkos he has lost my vote and I will actively work against him come election time. A true military man knows you can’t give the enemy an inch, unless you are drawing them into a trap. He has fallen into his own trap.
Kinzinger is in it for himself. Go away.
He is in love with the sound of his own voice. If he wants an example of something that is really destructive to this country he should look in the mirror.
Somebody owns this clown. Most of the scum in DC is bought and paid for through blackmail or some other form of coercion if not simply outright amoral greed.
Exactly who is trying to sow “darkness, fear, and division”? Kinzinger represents everything disgusting about politicians.
Go away Adam- Done with you and if ever trying to seek higher office you will not have my vote!
This guy is a CLOWN but the good news is that he`s traveling down the same road as Joe Walsh remind me again where ole Joe ended up
He like so many anti-trumpers is a RINO piece of garbage who will run as a Republican but be loyal to the democrat machine. Hopefully trump will destroy him in the primary by running a good candidate against him and destroy his career permanently. He needs to leave politics completely and forever.
As they say in the military, you go against your superiors you are considered a TRAITOR. You Kinzinger a military individual should know better, something has gone dramatically wrong with Kinzinger.
Why does this guy even bother calling himself a Republican? He appears on Anderson Cooper? Does he have any respect left on capitol hil?
“I think there is value in understanding different viewpoints,” Kinzinger stated. Well that also applies to understanding the viewpoints against CRT. It might be good to know opposing viewpoints, but teaching permanent bias based upon skin tone is not wise or just.
Adam is always at the top of my list along with Kim, Angelina and Lori; pearls of wisdom
