The Joke That Is Illinois
Is there anything more embarrassing than to have your morally and criminally corrupt governor refuse to resign even after being arrested? Yeah sure the General Assembly is meeting today to figure out what to do with him but why did it take almost a full week to call a session together? There isn't a legislator or senator in Illinois that is more than 4 hours away from the capital. The day after his arrest the General Assembly should have been in Springfield forcing this idiot to resign. Instead they wait nearly a week and still probably won't do anything today. It's embarrassing, but worse it's politics that used to be reserved for third world countries and instead it's right here in the Land of Lincoln.
