Despite one of the biggest scandals of his tenure, House Speaker Mike Madigan’s campaign coffers are the biggest they’ve ever been with roughly $25 million cash on hand going into the final stretch of the 2020 election season, according to campaign finance records.
No question he has fully signed on to the inner City, union and minority agenda that has destroyed this state. But don’t count him out yet on the criminal investigation. He is probably the smartest politician in the US over the last 50-75 years. (Maybe Bill Clinton is the exception. hard to think of anyone else who might be.) Look how he has maintained his power over the dramatic changes in the demographics of Illinois since the 1970’s. Without a doubt the most careful and singularly focused public official ever to serve in Illinois.

A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.

There will be another slug sliding in to try and take his place. Unions are probably grooming already.
