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.
If they don’t have the intelligence to ask for information on a foreign entity that will be coming in and impacting their local economy, they shouldn’t be surprised when they lose total control around this plant, the related energy use and their air quality. It starts with Manteno and spreads like a virus from there. Seems like money gets people to look the other way.
China builds the very best electric vehicles. Electric cars are the future, last thing Illinois cares about is the future (because Illinois has little future).
I wonder if Manteno trustees getting a kickback? From what I’ve read citizens don’t want a CCP company in their community.
When’s the next election? These Manteno trustees NEED TO GO!
