Who was in the bunny suit?
I wonder who that was in the bunny outfit at the Easter Egg Roll at the White House that rescued Joe. Could it be Obama in that outfit? Maybe Valerie Jarrett? Who knows. But he was just about ready to talk about a subject that they didn’t want him to talk about. Our enemies must be licking their chops when they’re watching this moron.
Have to have appointment
Waukegan City Hall has turned into a baby prison. You’ve got the police at the front. Then you can’t go upstairs. You can’t go see any of the personnel, or anything like that. You have to have an appointment. That is a city building owned by the taxpayers, and the taxpayers can’t even walk through the building. I don’t understand this. This new mayor has got to go.
Those clowns
Hey Talk of the County, I don’t want to see pictures of Matt Gaetz and Marjorie Taylor Greene. I think it’s despicable that you have them in our paper. Let them go back to their own counties or their own states. Don’t put those clowns in there any more.
Remodel the Arby’s
This is in regard to “Hoorah”: The Starbucks is in North Chicago, and I’m glad it’s there for the military people. Now, if only the Arby’s would remodel their place of business. They have good people working there, but it’s just an old, kind of crumby, rundown place, and Arby’s you should be proud of its name and fix it up. Military people go there, too.
Jumped the gun
It’s great that the Democrats are going to lower the gasoline sales tax. But, as Pritzker said last month, Lake County jumped the gun. They put their permanent 4-cent tax on earlier this year, and it was led by the Democrats. They passed it through, including Cunningham and Hart.
Good luck
So, the Trump organization is going to sell the hotel in Washington and they might make $100 million, they say. Unfortunately, they don’t get to keep any of that money, because Bone Spur owes over $300 million to Deutsche Bank in Germany, and he has to pay up here in a year to a year-and-a-half. Good luck with that, Bone Spur.
