McCALEB: What’s real as the primary election approaches

(Illinois News Network) -- Everyone who watches even just a bit of TV or who checks their mailboxes every now and then knows there's an election around the corner. The dubious campaign ads and colorful mailers with big scare headlines have been flooding both for weeks. I hope you're not paying attention to them.

Shrinking Decatur to face budgetary hurdles in coming year

DECATUR (Illinois Policy Institute) -- After passing an unbalanced budget in 2017, Decatur will have to address its declining population and revenue as it looks ahead to crafting future budgets. Gov. Bruce Rauner’s budget proposal for fiscal year 2019 continues a reduction to a state financial shell game. While ultimately a benefit for Illinois taxpayers, it’s a move that will force shrinking cities to reform local finances.

And One More Thing…Legalization of Drugs

And one more thing… This past Sunday I had Matthew C. Scaro, who is running for Illinois Governor under the Libertarian Party banner, on my show. Before I get into this, I’d like to thank Mr. Scaro for coming down and traveling four hours in a snowstorm to arrive come on my show. With that being said, the debate that followed was legendary.
