Conehead "Finds" More Money

A couple of days ago, we noted that Conehead was scraping up $50 million to buy the old Greyhound bus station.

 Now we find out he's stumbled into another $46.2 million for "neighborhood fix-ups:"

  • Mayor Brandon Johnson kicked off Friday by touting a fresh $46.2 million in federal cash for 40 neighborhood projects across Chicago, covering everything from park upgrades to lead-service-line replacement. He is pitching the haul as targeted spending on public safety, housing and basic city services that will touch schools, transit hubs and shelter sites, all while City Hall keeps working on a broader infrastructure and budget agenda for 2026.

But the most pressing issue that needs "fixing up" would be the Pension Fund that he shorted 50% of the required payment.

This bullshit will never end as long as there are demoRat politicians running this state and those willing to vote for the bastards. Of course there is the issue of the poor guardianship of our pension fund. Hmmm, what could possibly solve that problem?

When it comes to pension funding “Let’s Go Brandon” is not much different that previous Chiraq mayors. They are handed 4 year “jobs” that come with the “obligation” to fund AND protect pensions that are designed to function in perpetuity.
No sooner do they land these 4 year jobs, they go into reelection mode.
They have NOOOOOO concern for the obligation to do what is right for the FUTURE of pension funds. It’s not sexy. It doesn’t garner the votes necessary to hold the mayors office.

The commonest strategy for pensions of all kinds is attrition of liabilities via reductions in pensioners by deaths of same.

As in, what they pay out today becomes less tomorrow.

Fully funded has a different meaning to them.

While Conehead is an accurate description of the fool's physical appearance, I suggest giving him the dignity of his office and referring to him by both his title and his character as "Mayor Numnuts". Thank you.
