On weekend where Lightfoot says "America is back" six shot and at least 37 wounded over weekend in Chicago

While not wearing a mask on Saturday, Chicago's leftist mayor, Lori Lightfoot, declared "America is back" while addressing Joe Biden supporters. But but of course Lightfoot didn't say anything about Chicago's rampant shootings. Over the this past weekent six people were shot to death and at least 37 others were wounded. It was a big jump over the prior weekend. If pressed I'm sure Lightfoot will blame President Trump for that. 

Pfizer's experimental COVID-19 vaccine is more than 90% effective

President Trump promised that a vaccine would be ready soon when he was on the campaign trail. 

From NPR:

Pfizer's experimental COVID-19 vaccine appears to be working. The vaccine was found to be more than 90% effecting, according to clinical results released by the company Monday. 

That news comes from an interim analysis of a study involving 43,538 volunteers, 42 percent of whom had "diverse backgrounds." Each participant got two injections spaced 21 days apart. 

The analysis compared the number of cases of COVID-19 among the volunteers getting the vaccine, with an approximately equal sized group of volunteers who got an injection of a liquid that didn't contain the vaccine. 

In a news release from Pfizer and its partner BioNTech, the company said results from 94 evaluable cases of COVID-19 among study participants indicated the more than 90 percent effective in preventing COVID-19. The Food and Drug Administration set a minimum effectiveness bar at 50%.

Pritzker calls on Boss Madigan to quit Illinois Democratic Party chairmanship

Institute

Illinois Republicans had a rare good Election Day on Tuesday. The so-called Fair Tax Amendment, which would replace a flat state income tax with graduated rates--failed. The amendment was personally and financially pushed by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, a Chicago Democrat. In the state House of Representatives the GOP will pick up a few seats. And a Democratic Supreme Court justice failed in his retention bid. 

After years of trying the state Republican Party was able to point to the real problem in Illinois--Boss Michael Madigan--and find a lot of believers in this argument. Corruption probes are circling Madigan's cronies. And of course Madigan, who has been  state House Speaker for 25 of the last 27 years--and state Democratic Party chairman for 23 years--has had his fingers on every Illinois budget for decades. He's the primary reason Illinois is bankrupt-in-all-but-name. 

Yesterday, Pritzker, who was the Madigan machine's unofficial choice in the 2018 Democratic gubernatorial primary, called on Madigan to quit his party chairmanship. That's not far enough--Madigan needs to resign or be removed from the speakership too. 

But it's a start. 

So far only one prominent Illinois Democrat, US Sen. Tammy Duckworth, is calling for Madigan to leave the speakership. 

Trump economy: Jobless rate drops to 6.9 percent

This is still the Donald J. Trump economy.

From CNBC:  

Employment growth was better than expected in October and the unemployment rate fell sharply even as the U.S. faces the challenge of surging coronavirus cases and the impact they could have on the nascent economic recovery.

The Labor Department reported Friday that nonfarm payrolls increased by 638,000 and the unemployment rate was at 6.9%. Economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been looking for a payroll gain of 530,000 and an unemployment rate of 7.7% a touch lower than the September level of 7.9%.

October’s gain was just slightly off the September pace of 672,000.

The jobless rate decline was positive as it came with a labor force participation rate that rose 0.3 percentage points to 61.7%. An alternative measure that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time jobs for economic reasons also declined, to 12.1% from 12.8% a month ago.
