State Rep. Patrick Sheehan, who is also a police officer, said it doesn’t help that Gov. JB Pritzker calls ICE the “gestapo” and “jack-booted thugs,” and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson calls law enforcement a “sickness.” He said, “And I really just urge Gov. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson to apologize for their comments and stand behind the women, men and women of law enforcement."
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
