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.
Many people were unaware that the genetic mutilation complex was even doing business at Lurie. Nice to know something that is supposed to be so beneficial to gender confused children was being kept a secret.
My understanding – and I cannot vouch for this – is that Lurie behind the scenes actually stopped ‘gender affirming surgeries’ a while back because the newest medical evidence doesn’t support the surgeries, and, because sex changes surgeries are just too controversial for a hospital that relies heavily on donations from rich people who don’t want their donations used for Dr. Mengele’s ideological descendants. This recent pause is an excuse to blame Trump for stopping the surgeries instead of saying the truth, that these surgeries are highly controversial and donors are not comfortable with them.
It is about time.
