The Mincing Rascals 10.9.24: Mayor Johnson school board, Hurricane Milton, controversial license plates
Description
The Mincing Rascals this week are John Williams of WGN Radio, Eric Zorn, Publisher of The Picayune Sentinel, longtime Chicago journalist Cate Plys, and political pundit Marj Halperin! This week, the Rascals kick things off breaking down Mayor Brandon Johnson’s ‘flabbergasting’ and ‘maddening’ news conference on Monday where he announced new members of Chicago’s Board of Education. Another destructive hurricane is heading towards Florida. The Rascals talk about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signing legislation earlier this year that erased most references to climate change from state law. Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias revoked the personalized license plates of some drivers who ordered variations of the date “October 7.” Do the Rascals believe the controversial plates should have been revoked? Also, Cate recommends you check out the show by SEB this Friday at Cobra Lounge! SEB is Cate’s daughter’s long-time partner and he’s a tremendous musician. Check out his music here.
