I never understood Boeing leadership's choice of moving its HQ to Chicago. It was the worst corporate move EVER. Boeing's corporate aircraft reside in Gary, IN. Yes, that's right, Gary... an absolute hellhole to the tune of "Mogadishu on the Michigan." Boeing had considered moving their HQ to Dallas, Texas, but chose Chicago instead. They would have been leaders of the pack back then to be transitioning from high tax, 'business unfriendly' States to the Great State of Texas. Opportunity LOST.

#16, Boeing was showered with perks and 10 years tax free by the then mafia don Mayor Richie Daley. Boeing bought the Morton Building who is in a prime location by the Chicago River. Probably now the perks are gone and they are paying taxes. Time to go.

I´m with #6: Move United Airlines from union-run Chicago to friendly (and business-friendly) Houston. United purchased Continental Airlines, a truly fine, Houston-based mid-size carrier with excellent service. Now even Houston flyers are stuck with United´s Chicago surliness and New Jersey ´tude. Houston would make a great headquarters for United. I really miss Continental and their excellent service. Houston airport (IAH) isn´t nearly as jammed a O´Hare (which was terrific in its day.) Like Chicago, Houston kept the old airport (Hobby Airport), just as did Chicago with Midway. There´s plenty of capacity in Houston´s airports, great, friendly people, and a great location. Overall, Houston tries harder than Chicago. Houstonians are working to build a great city and, while they´re not yet at Chicago´s level, neither is corruption or any sort of union stranglehold on the city. (BTW, Houston is very far from being some sort of cultural wasteland, as Chicagoans like to taunt.)

President Joe Biden is catching heat for remarking on the old days of having lunch with “real segregationists” during an event in Ohio, but readers should keep in mind that this isn’t the first time Biden has made such comments. In fact, during the 2020 campaign, then-Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) rebuked similar statements made by Biden as being “misinformed and … wrong.”While appearing on stage in Hamilton, Ohio, with Senators Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Rob Portman (R-OH) on Friday, the president went off on a tangent regarding the apparent lack of civility in D.C. nowadays that America sees from the halls of Congress.

Justice Antonin Scalia was among the most prescient Supreme Court justices in American history, and the firestorm over the leak of Justice Samuel Alito's draft opinion overturning Roe is a reminder of it. In Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, the 1992 Supreme Court decision upholding (and amending) Roe v. Wade, the justices in the majority believed that they could settle once and for all the dispute over abortion.Scalia thought this was outlandishly wrongheaded and said so in a dissent that looks farsighted 30 years later. Not only did the Court fail to calm the political waters on abortion, it made itself central to the political and moral argument

The US has secretly been giving Ukraine real-time battlefield intelligence that directly helped its military kill Russian generals, according to a report—drawing an angry response Thursday from the Kremlin. Washington had provided crucial intelligence that helped pinpoint Russia’s mobile military headquarters as well as anticipate their movements, the New York Times reported, citing multiple senior US officials. The intelligence was “decisive” and directly led to Ukraine killing “many” Russian generals, the anonymous officials told the paper, without specifying the number. Ukraine has previously claimed to have killed at least 12 Russian generals. The report stressed that not all were attributed to the US tipoffs.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) made tackling crime a central plank of his successful election campaign last November. A poll released Wednesday shows his inability to deliver is being punished by disillusioned voters. A survey by Quinnipiac University shows crime is the top concern of 49 percent of city voters — more than triple the 15 percent of respondents who cited affordable housing and 12 percent homelessness. However just 37 percent of city residents approved of Adams’s performance on crime, compared to 54 percent who disapproved. This is a reversal from the 49 percent who approved and 35 percent who disapproved in a survey as recently as last February.
