Illinois politicians picked illegal aliens over Bears

Most athletes keep their political beliefs to themselves. Famoously, Michael Jordan was asked why he wasn't more active politically. He replied "Because Republicans play basketball, too." In this Fox News op-ed, Chicago Bears Hall of Fame linebacker Brian Urlacher pushed aside the Jordan Rule. He wrote "I just don't see how as a state, was it legislator, governor, city mayor, how you can let this team leave the state of Illinois or even be a topic of discussion. You know, you do what you have to do to keep the Bears there. The fans, we have some of the best fans in the world for any sport."

The Bears are one of the NFL's original teams. Losing them to Indiana is like Green Bay losing the Packers to Iowa. It's simply unthinkable.

Then Urlacher stuck the shiv in and gave it a sharp twist, saying "If I was those guys, I would probably do what I had to do to keep them in the state of Illinois. Maybe not at Soldier Field because that was already off the table, but they had Arlington Heights planned out. They have the land bought already." Next came the extra twist of the shiv:

Find a way to keep them there and they just don't care. They're putting their money in other places that maybe aren't as important. You know, you look at all the money they've given to illegal immigrants and the money they've set aside for that.

It's like two and a half, three billion dollars that they've spent on the illegal immigrants. That money could be for the Bears. Could be trying to keep them, not for the Bears, but trying to keep their stadium in town instead of keeping people who aren't supposed to be in our country here.

Giving up the Bears to keep the criminal illegal aliens is unthinkable. That's like letting the Miracle Mile get run down. It's possible but it's foolish.

After watching this podcast, it's obvious that Urlacher isn't bashful politically:

Simply put, Illinois needs smarter management. J.B. Pritzker and Brandon Johnson need to be fired.

Proof that Tim Walz doesn't care about fraud or other crime

Anyone that thinks that Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, doesn't care about preventing crime or fraud hasn't read this article . Alpha News is reporting that "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) has confirmed that Dylan Adams, the fiscal policy analyst caught on video vandalizing Teslas in Minneapolis, is still employed by the state — meaning Minnesota taxpayers are footing the bill for his salary. In response to Alpha News inquiries, a DHS spokesperson said: "Dylan Adams is a current employee." Apparently, the Walz administration doesn't care that it's employing a vandal in its Department of Human Services. As for whether Adams "has faced consequences for racking up more than $21,000 in damage during work hours , the agency offered little transparency. 'No public data exists with respect to disciplinary action,' the spokesperson said." This reminds me of the old phrase I coined, which says 'It's impossible to...

I couldn't help but smile when I read the headline to this article . The title is "BREAKING: Minnesota Department of Education to strengthen hiring practices — after Alpha News reports." Thank God for well-run government agencies. Under DFL management, the Minnesota Department of Education, aka MDE, has turned inot an embarassment. Thank God Alpha News takes oversight seriously. Alpha News reports that "The Minnesota Department of Education (MDE) says it will now require criminal background checks for “all new hires” and is working to adopt tougher hiring policies—after Alpha News’ exclusive reporting on a convicted sex offender’s employment in a high-level state role." The article continues, saying "The department announced the changes in a letter to Rep. Kristin Robbins, R-Maple Grove, following widespread concern over its hiring of Wilson Tindi, a Kenyan national on the state’s predatory offender registry who was earning $145,000 a year as Director of I...
