Ted was on The Chicago Way with John Kass and Jeff Carlin to discuss the proposed $5 billion lakefront stadium project proposed by the Chicago Bears & Mayor Brandon Johnson, why Chicago is struggling compared to other metro areas across the country, why the city might or might not go the way of Detroit, and more.
Some Illinois lawmakers continue to deny that covid aid and other federal stimulus bailed the state out of its fiscal mess. But a look at past and projected revenues from COGFA shows just how much the bailouts blew out the state’s revenues. And now that they’re over, how much harder it will be for Illinois revenues to grow.
Election integrity – both real and perceived – is essential to government’s legitimacy and stability. Illinois, like the rest of the nation, better fix its problems now.
Ted joined Dan and Amy to talk about Chicago’s latest bond offering, why Chicago’s dismal home value growth is due to poor policies, the next $70 million to be spent on migrants, the 9% salary hikes demanded by the CTU, and why Illinois lawmakers voting to stop Chicago’s selective enrollment schools from being closed is hypocritical.

Look how Pritzkers double chin hangs over his tie knot. I try not to refer to his physique, but I just couldn’t resist.
In my opinion, Pritzker you are a worthless turd.
Pritzker may be right about the practical effect of the terrorist supporting resolution put out by Chicago. But the resolution identifies clearly how extreme the Democrats are with their Leftism.
Hmm.. Pritzger now caught up in the conundrum of pleasing his fellow Marxists while try to save face with fellow people of Jewish persuasion. If he thinks that riding the tiger is rough, wait until he falls off and is devoured.
