We review the major stories of the week, with Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announcing she’s firing Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson in the wake of evidence the mayor says proves he lied to her and the public about events surrounding Johnson’s being found asleep in his car last October.
We also take a look at the Federal investigation into Illinois politics in the wake of allegations of wrong-doing, and resignation of a leading Illinois Senator. Where is this investigation going and are the loose ends enough to draw any firm direction of what the feds are investigating? And — who’s ahead as the Illinois Senate looks to elect a new Senate President?
