Good afternoon, Chicago.

Mayor Brandon Johnson pointed the finger at Illinois Democrats yesterday, including Gov. JB Pritzker, over his outstanding wishlist in Springfield that he has struggled to fulfill for over a year.

Speaking at a panel at the Hideout, the mayor again blasted state leaders and called upon them to give Chicago home rule authority to implement new levies because they aren’t “bold” enough to do it themselves. Then without naming him, Johnson appeared to take a shot at Pritzker by comparing the two-term governor and possible candidate in the 2028 presidential race to the governor’s political nemesis, Republican President Donald Trump.
