Mayor Appoints Politically Connected Pastor, Not A Transit Expert, To CTA’s Oversight Board – Block Club Chicago

Out of more than 50 appointments to the CTA board over the past 40 years, only three were transportation experts. The city and governor’s office won’t explain how they identify and interview prospective board members.

It is a patronage job. Pay back for other favors. Then people wonder why the Transit authority is so stupid and doesn’t know how to fix problems…rinse and repeat.

The Pastor is going to lead the oversight board in prayer. It’s their only hope! Praise Jesus!
