Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension. Audio here.
Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.
The state’s existing buyout program for its own pensions is the precedent for Chicago, which should be a warning: Look out for similar exaggerated claims and shoddy analysis.

Kim Foxx only prosecutes whites. She’s blatantly biased towards “ppl of color.” This racist needs to be removed from office & prosecuted/sued by the white victims of black crime. Blacks are responsible for over 90% of ALL crimes–and Foxx lets them walk away with MISDEMEANORS for violent attacks on whites. She has no business holding this position–one must be unbiased and objective. She’s the fartgest thing from that. She clearly hates whites. She’s a raging racist. She’s disgusting and disgraceful. She should have her license pulled and never be allowed to practice law. Ever.
Kim once again protecting her kind of people.
They value the perpetrators of “color”, over the victims as it doesn’t fit a narrative they are pushing. It is really sick. Foxx has private security, just like the defund the police people have.
If he had killed the kid by tossing a Big Gulp root beer at him, Kim would have filed first degree murder charges.
At least Deport him!!!! Oh, I forget, a future Democrat voter.
PRECISELY. That’s the reason this massive invasion of illegals is occuring–blue votes. The left will f**k over law-abiding tax-paying US citizens in order to maintain their hold on power. Never in my life did I think politicians would stoop so low.
Don’t you know that it’s only wrong for you to have a gun if you are white and male and haven’t committed any crimes.
This clarifies the state’s objectives: gun laws are not aimed at criminals; they are designed to disarm law-abiding citizens.
It’s called anarcho-tyranny, “Srinivasan’s definition of anarcho-tyranny…: the law is powerless to help you, but it can still harm you.” In simple terms, anarcho-tyranny is when the state stops upholding its end of the social contract to use its monopoly on violence for its own ends.

This is also very similar to Bolshevik Russia in the early days, where violent criminals were freed from prison, they were called political prisoners (they were not) and were given instructions to terrorize non-Bolshevik populations.
And if you or I were caught with an illegally purchased firearm after being involved in a shooting … “Go directly to Jail. Do not pass Go …”
Shameful not to charge him. Demonstrates preference of illegals over US citizens
