The Schools Are Pawns In Rahm And Rauner S Game

As the Chicago’s Public School system heads towards teacher layoffs and a possible strike, Governor Rauner flew home from his vacation in the Moroccan desert to continue his fight with Mayor Emanuel.

                                      Fired up from the camels and the tents, Rauner called Rahm “tone deaf” for resisting investigations into the police and law departments.

                 The mayor also told reporters that Rauner’s using the schools as pawns in his political game against House Speaker Michael Madigan.

                 The only good thing to come out of it is that it gives me another opportunity to point out that each man helped the other make millions in the early 2000s, when Rahm’s investment bank company helped Rauner’s private equity company acquire SecurityLink from telecom giant SBC Communications.

                 In the meantime, they have their political interests.
