Business as usual in Illinois.

A newly elected legislator who campaigned on the promise to oppose the Speaker Michael J. Madigan and won in a formerly Republican district is now being strong armed to support the party dictator.

It was brilliant of Madigan to place his daughter as Attorney General. Now he’s nearly completely safe from prosecution.
