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.
Instead of looking for unpaid “volunteers” from the general population, why doesn’t the chief grifter/carpetbagger offer it as an additional opportunity to CPS for students to fulfill the statewide community service requirement for High School graduation?
They won’t need 100 volunteers. They won’t have 100 visitors in a year
Isn’t this one of the most ridiculous things ever? $740K ($61K/Month) for the Obama connected grifter…but they need Chicago people to volunteer to work in the building. Simply stupid.
I think volunteers there should take a page out of the Chicago Art Institutes’ docent book. These volunteers need to unionize and demand a living wage and the ethnic diversity of this “volunteer” workforce should mirror the ethnic diversity of Chicago’s population.
Perhaps he should go recruit in Kenya.
This is the defining feature of socialism, right? Why does it always seem to end up this way?
