Blagojevich is back in court. Here's what happened Monday.


JASON MEISNER
Chicago Tribune
CHICAGO — The last time convicted ex-Gov. Rod Blagojevich appeared in federal court in Chicago, he watched sullenly via a video link from prison as a judge resentenced him to 14 years in prison for an array of corruption schemes.
Five years later, a far more upbeat Blagojevich returned in the flesh to the Dirksen U.S. Courthouse, ground zero for his historic political and personal downfall.
“I don’t like this place,” Blagojevich said after striding up to a battery of news microphones set up outside the building on South Dearborn Street. “I was hoping I would never have to set foot in this building again, but here I am.”

Lincoln Park Gun Club: Shooting guns over Lake Michigan for decades was authorized recreation; how it stopped

Hard to believe now, but, from 1912 until its demise 30 years ago, the Lincoln Park Gun Club occupied a choice lakefront locale just north of the mouth of Diversey Harbor.

Illinois Leaks | DuPage Twp: Felix George using Township Funds For Censure In Apparent Electioneering Purpose –


After DuPage Township's failed meeting of December 4, 2020, where two trustees leaving office and one supervisor who is seeking election used a public meeting in a failed attempt at censuring a fellow trustee, resulting in a lawsuit, it appears they will repeat that process at the March 16, 2021, township meeting.
First, we must note that a Township
There is no provision in the constitution or the Open Meetings Act which expressly authorizes public bodies to sanction their members for revealing what went on during a closed meeting, and there is clearly no constitutional provision from which one may imply such powers." Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris, 1991. The same can be said for sanctioning an elected township official for any other reason - there are no powers of sanction granted to a township government. Additionally, without a specific policy permitting censure (any such policy would be void in our opinion as a power not granted cannot be taken), any such censure would be invalid - see

US Senate has only had 11 Black senators in its 232-year history

Congress set a new diversity record this year with its highest-ever number of women and racial minorities, including 60 Black lawmakers.
People of color have historically had a tougher time getting elected to the Senate. Newly elected Raphael Warnock is only the 11th Black US senator since the Senate convened for the first time in 1789. Only two of those have been women. And with the departure of Kamala Harris, the number of Black female US senators is now at zero.

Voters in urban congressional districts tend to be more diverse and politically progressive, driving the higher number of minorities in the House. But that has had little effect on the number of Black senators.

Illinois Lawmakers and General Assembly Pensions


WBGZ Radio 2/16/2021 |
By Greg Bishop - Illinois Radio Network
Illinois taxpayers pay more than $2.1 million a month to retired state legislators or their surviving spouses from a fund that’s only 16% funded. The individual monthly payouts are as high as $18,000 per month. Some pensioners aren’t actually retired but still getting paid. There are 425 people drawing off the General Assembly Retirement System, ranging from $122 a month to $18,000.
At 16% funded, state Rep. Mark Batinick, R-Plainfield, said GARS is the worst of the state’s five public sector pension funds. “You got there by skipping payments and being unrealistic and that’s a microcosm of what’s happened with all the funds,” Batinick said. All five of the state’s pensions funds combined have an unfunded liability of more than $140 billion. Being an Illinois state lawmaker is considered a part time job and Batinick said members of GARS getting that much per month in retirement is out of line. “So, part time offices, I just don’t think that a pension is in order,” he said. “It doesn’t make sense. It complicates the system and makes the math bad.”
