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.
Another politician bought and paid for, JB Snickers thinks his money will save him, not.
Nice try JB but too little too late. Trumps war on Federal Unions will lead to the elimination of Public Sector Unions nationwide. And not a day too soon. Good riddance parasitic criminal vermin.
Keep dreaming. Won’t happen.
Keep deluding. Will happen.
Lynn Sweet fails to connect these sweeteners added by JB the Hutt to the exorbitant cost of any taxpayer-funded project in Illinois. Ultimately, cowardly political animal Bob Peters’ bill was nothing more than another stealth tax increase on Illinois taxpayers which The Hutt was only too hungry to sign.
I still don’t understand the beef over firing unneeded staff that were hired with temporary covid funds to boost Joe’s woeful employment numbers. Go by seniority ( as unions are supposed to ) and then give those on the threshold of retirement an early, but fairly compensated, exit and last, but not least, axe the useless hangers on that won’t ever leave unless it’s feet first.
