Brian McCann says the shooting death of 32-year-old Kate Steinle by an illegal immigrant in 2015 in San Francisco, a sanctuary city, is not an “outlier case.”

A report by Kevin Boyle, an attorney with Chicago-headquartered firm Keefe, Campbell, Biery and Associates, published a blog post Nov. 13 that offers Indiana residents an inside view into a recent nonfatal workplace injury and illness report issued by the Indiana Department of Labor.

In the wake of former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn’s recent guilty plea in the Mueller investigation, Chicago’s Morning Answer hosts Dan Proft and Amy Jacobson pondered the implications with guest Alberto Gonzolaz, former attorney general in the Bush administration.

Rep. Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton), who has filed to run for governor in the GOP primary, recently criticized Gov. Bruce Rauner and sanctuary city legislation in a statement spurred by the verdict in the Kate Steinle murder trial.

Rich Morthland isn’t surprised that even Gov. Bruce Rauner doesn’t want to take ownership of his first term in office.

Illinois’ unpaid vendor debt crept slightly higher during the first week of December, to $9,192,633,377.29, as of Dec. 6, the state comptroller’s office said.

Mailee Smith says she’s studied thousands of criminal bills and still hasn’t found one quite like Senate Bill 1905.

Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton) wants Illinois voters to know just how different she is from every other gubernatorial candidate now in the field for 2018.

Gov. Bruce Rauner said he was “not in charge” during a press conference Monday and he intends to continue blaming House Speaker Michael Madigan (D-Chicago) for the problems facing Illinois until Madigan is no longer speaker.

Gov. Bruce Rauner officially has an opponent in the Republican primary, state Rep. Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton), however, his recent campaign strategy is not to focus on his Republican competition, or even anyone currently running for governor.
