Illinois education officials continuously claim there’s a teacher shortage across the state. Yet data from the state’s own Illinois Report Card shows that hiring at schools has been booming over the last 25 years, especially when you consider that student enrollment has been shrinking at the same time.
Ted joined Dan and Amy to talk about the failures of Mayor Johnson’s first year in office, what Chicago’s future looks like, why so many CPS teachers are chronically absent, the details of Gov. Pritzker’s $827 million giveaway to Rivian, and more.

Why patronize a business that demands to see your ID along with your personal medical information? Because the tyrants in their community demand that they do. When will these voters see the light of tyranny and vote the American Nazis out? Why? Why? Why? We will not spend our money in Cook/County/Chicago, ever. As side note none of these mandates appear to be working, masks are ineffective, social distancing, nope, poison vaccines, not so much.
Because they are Eloi, waiting for the Morlocks to have dinner…on them!
What if someone has their vaccine card for Covid but have Ebola/Dengue Fever/smallpox/Anthrax/TB/Cholera/and Malaria. As long as you have all your jabs for Covid and they don’t have a sign saying no Ebola/etc you can dine in.
Yup, we pretty much stay out of Cook, it is illegal for us to go into stores or restaurants there. Even if we legally could buy a breakfast in Cook County, we wouldn’t on principle. My wife and are freedom loving people, even tough we are criminals.

My apologies to the fine people who own and operate the local restaurant and the employees who provide service.
We will NOT frequent any establishment that requires ‘papers.’
Garbage article, finds one business in Chicago that said, “business is great because of the mandate” but writes as an aside that he spammed 20,000 people begging for business after a slow winter, when he himself put in his own vaccinate mandate a month ago. There’s no doubt the mandate will be devastating to local businesses. Businesses geared towards children may as well just file bankruptcy today: the jumpy castle places, indoor playgrounds, chuckie cheeses, bowling alleys, gymastics, non-park district indoor sports, etc, . With only a quarter of kids under 12 vaccinated, they have no hope of surviving, and… Read more »
LOL,
Wife and i were going to stop in Northbrook for lunch.. Then decided to have a great lunch in Lake Forest! HAHA Cook County!
Same with us, having restaurant meals in our local community where no insane mandates are in effect. We also shop and spend in nearby Wisconsin where taxes are lower and the insanity is far, far, less.
There are nice places to eat in the area – and Wisconsin isn’t that far away. 15-20 minutes to Brodhead and cheaper gas!
