Solyndra 2.0?

[Freest Republican]

Rivian is backed by the wealthy as can be Saudis, one of whom took down $11billion on the IPO.

[rktman]

Well, folks are lining up for them right? No?

[Mount Athos]

Money that could actually help citizens is flushed instead

[Prince of Space]

Makes you wonder how much Pritzker will make from this deal.

[Libloather]

However, its starting price is expected to be about $45,000

The governor's family made its original fortune by buying scorched earth after the Chicago Fire in 1871 and then reselling it at a higher price. Now how did the buyer know that land would suddenly be worth a lot more?

Not all of the carpetbaggers went South.

And look up Jennifer Prtizker, the governor's cousin. It lives in Kentucky, last I heard.

The whole Pritzker clan is a collection of thieves and perverts. JB is the one who went into politics.

I’ll take “Who has money invested in Rivian, for 827 million, Alex.”

Forgot many governors from IL went to prison, add another one for money laundering. But just a guess...

[mewzilla]

If folks think this is bad, you should see what’s going on in NYS...

I saw a Rivian SUV this weekend I was perplexed by the stupidity of paying that much for a company’s vehicle that will cease to exist before it’s paid for. Hell, I don’t even know where they got it.

That money is probably coming out of the State Pension fund and straight down the drain. They could be putting that in energy stocks, etc., and get growth and dividends but no they have to invest politically.

[ronnie raygun]

They would all be running for the hills if we just nailed one of their a##es to the board

[vetvetdoug]

Obama led the way with millions, if not billions, of dollars to his cronies in the “green” energy companies that went bankrupt in less than two years with nothing to show for the money spent. They were shell companies that benefited his Democrat supporters. Illinois is just following the example made by Obama.

[gathersnomoss]

It’s not the Marxist Leftist’s money. Wake up people

[Uncle Lonny]

Another wealthy Jew politician pushing what is bad for America.

[hal ogen]

Could this guv be any more of a fat slob?

[cowboyusa]

Man, Obi- Wan really let himself go.
