Obama’s Chicago days: Biographer describes letters Obama hopes the public never sees – FOX News

Garrow called his memoir "Dreams From My Father" essentially fictionalized, said he was too lazy to be a good Supreme Court justice, and said his presidency will be considered a failure in the long run because of its foreign policy shortcomings. If he sounds like an abrasive right-wing figure, he isn't – he calls himself to the left of Obama on issues like health care, is avowedly pro-choice and lamented Obama hadn't modeled his post-presidency after Jimmy Carter, whose humanitarianism has often received better reviews than his one-term stint in the White House.

Few people say that Jimmy Carter was a good president. But many say that he was a good ex-president.

Cripes, can you imagine an accurate bio of Joe Biden? It would probably be used for criminal evidence.

Chicago Teachers Union contract demands are totally divorced from reality – Wirepoints

Details emerging about Chicago Teachers Union’s upcoming contract show just how divorced its demands, both extreme and expensive, are from the reality at Chicago schools. It’s not just about massive salary increases, but also about money for migrant students, climate initiatives, abortions and gender-affirming care. About blocking parental notification.

Chicago needs more champions of literacy like Willie Wilson – Wirepoints

It’s rare to see city leaders in Chicago take an open, unabashed stance on the collapse of literacy. To complain is deemed as too political, too racist or too anti-public schools. So it’s refreshing to see Willie Wilson, a successful businessman and leader of the black community, call for a literacy initiative “with the goal of getting 100% of Black students reading at grade level.”
