"The false, malicious attacks on the Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass."
Summary and audio linked here.
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.

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.

“but rather the union Democrats pushing the hard left Dem agenda.”
I think that “but rather the union pushing the communist party agenda” is a more accurate way to put it.
Why beat around the bush playing meaningless “progressive” word games?
Q. What’s the difference between between a communist, socialist and democrat?
A. Nothing. It is all just a matter of semantics or to put it more bluntly… Bulls***
Total nonsense to chase after Kass. His article was 100% right on point. Nothing inaccurate about it. Absolutely nothing regarding Soros’s religion. Rather than attack the messenger, why don’t people look at the list of prosecutors Soros has backed and see if theirs is the law enforcement philosophy we really want in our big cities. When it turns out the Tribune unionized employees are the ones after Kass, it’s obvious this has nothing to do with Soros’s religion, but rather the union Democrats pushing the hard left Dem agenda.
