PLAYOFF GAME.

54
00:02:26,466 --> 00:02:29,800
IS THAT GOING TO DROWN OUT THE

55
00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:34,266
PRESIDENT?

56
00:02:28,300 --> 00:02:35,866
>> IN CHICAGO IT WILL.

57
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:37,733
ILLINOIS IS A BLUE STATE.

58
00:02:34,266 --> 00:02:39,400
HILARY CLINTON WON'T LOSE VOTES

59
00:02:35,866 --> 00:02:42,600
BECAUSE OF THE CHICAGO CUBS

60
00:02:37,733 --> 00:02:44,933
BEING IN THE PLAYOFFS.

61
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:47,033
>> JOEL: DO YOU THINK HE COMES

62
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:48,600
HERE FOR THE MONEY.

63
00:02:44,933 --> 00:02:51,600
>> HE IS A POPULAR PRESIDENT.

64
00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:54,666
THAT CAN TRANSLATE TO MONEY

65
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:57,000
WHICH IS FUNNELED TO OTHER RACES

66
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:58,900
AND DRAW ATTENTION TO OTHER

67
00:02:54,666 --> 00:03:01,866
DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.

68
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:04,300
>> JOEL: IS HE HAVING ANY, IS IT

69
00:02:58,900 --> 00:03:06,466
SMART TO COME TO CHICAGO WHEN

70
00:03:01,866 --> 00:03:08,833
VIOLENCE IS FRONT AND CENTER IN

71
00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:11,100
THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN THIS

72
00:03:06,466 --> 00:03:13,666
IS HIS HOMETOWN?

73
00:03:08,833 --> 00:03:14,966
SOME SAY THIS IS NO CO INCIDENCE

74
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:18,166
TRUMP POINTS TO CHICAGO AS A

75
00:03:13,666 --> 00:03:20,366
FAILED VIOLENT CITY.

76
00:03:14,966 --> 00:03:23,066
>> I THINK THE OBAMA CONNECTION

77
00:03:18,166 --> 00:03:25,833
IS THERE BUT ALSO, YOU KNOW, IF

78
00:03:20,366 --> 00:03:26,500
THERE IS A TEACHER STRIKE ON

79
00:03:23,066 --> 00:03:30,233
TUESDAY, I THINK IT IS NOT SO,

80
00:03:25,833 --> 00:03:31,800
SO GREAT.

81
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:34,633
EVEN IN CHICAGO DOESN'T MAT IR.

82
00:03:30,233 --> 00:03:36,066
NATIONALLY THERE IS TENSION IN

83
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:38,366
HILARY'S POSITIONS AND MAJOR

84
00:03:34,633 --> 00:03:40,433
TEACHERER'S UNION.

85
00:03:36,066 --> 00:03:42,333
I AM SURE SHE DOESN'T WANT THAT

86
00:03:38,366 --> 00:03:44,366
POINTED OUT ON A NATIONAL STAGE.

87
00:03:40,433 --> 00:03:45,966
>> JOEL: LET'S TALK ABOUT THE

88
00:03:42,333 --> 00:03:48,066
RACES DOWN THE TICKET A MINUTE.

89
00:03:44,366 --> 00:03:49,700
EVEN THOUGH THE PRESIDENTIAL

90
00:03:45,966 --> 00:03:51,033
THING IS ALL BUT SETTLED.

91
00:03:48,066 --> 00:03:52,033
WE HAVE OTHER RACES,

92
00:03:49,700 --> 00:03:57,100
PRESIDENTIAL RACE SUCKS ALL THE

93
00:03:51,033 --> 00:04:02,200
AIR OUT OF THE ROOM.

94
00:03:52,033 --> 00:04:02,600
I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE TAMMY

95
00:03:57,100 --> 00:04:05,166
DUCKWORTH HAS A DOUBLE DIGIT

96
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,966
LEAD.

97
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:10,733
>> THIS HAS NOT BEEN A VERY

98
00:04:05,166 --> 00:04:13,633
APPETIZING CAMPAIGN IN TERMS OF

99
00:04:06,966 --> 00:04:13,933
DEBATE OF THE ISSUES, BOTH SIDES

100
00:04:10,733 --> 00:04:15,900
HAVE BEEN SLINGING MUD AT EACH

101
00:04:13,633 --> 00:04:17,900
OTHER.

102
00:04:13,933 --> 00:04:18,266
I DON'T KNOW THERE IS ENTHUSIASM

103
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:20,666
FOR THIS CONTEST IS KIND OF

104
00:04:17,900 --> 00:04:21,900
FLAGGING.

105
00:04:18,266 --> 00:04:23,266
BUT THE DEMOGRAPHICS ON A

106
00:04:20,666 --> 00:04:25,333
PRESIDENTIAL YEAR VERY TOUGH FOR

107
00:04:21,900 --> 00:04:25,733
MARK KIRK TO WIN.

108
00:04:23,266 --> 00:04:27,866
>> JOEL: WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN

109
00:04:25,333 --> 00:04:30,333
DRINKING?

110
00:04:25,733 --> 00:04:31,700
DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT BECAUSE

111
00:04:27,866 --> 00:04:32,066
THERE IS NO ISSUE IT IS NOT

112
00:04:30,333 --> 00:04:33,833
GETTING ATTENTION JUST MUD

113
00:04:31,700 --> 00:04:37,200
SLINGING?

114
00:04:32,066 --> 00:04:38,666
ISN'T THAT WHAT VOTERS CRAVE AND

115
00:04:33,833 --> 00:04:39,966
REACT TO?

116
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:42,633
>> I THINK THEY ARE ENTERTAINED

117
00:04:38,666 --> 00:04:46,466
BY MUD SLING.

118
00:04:39,966 --> 00:04:51,666
I WOULD AGREE WITH TOM, FIRST OF

119
00:04:42,633 --> 00:04:53,666
ALL, THIS RAISE HAS GOTTEN

120
00:04:46,466 --> 00:04:57,166
CROWDED OUT.

121
00:04:51,666 --> 00:04:58,566
TAMMY DUCKWORTH SEEMS TO HAVE

122
00:04:53,666 --> 00:05:00,600
DONE PRETTY WELL.

123
00:04:57,166 --> 00:05:00,900
DEBATE SUCH AS IT WAS --

124
00:04:58,566 --> 00:05:05,400
>> JOEL: WHAT HAS SHE ACTUALLY

125
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:07,400
DONE?

126
00:05:00,900 --> 00:05:10,666
>> CAMPAIGNED VIGOROUSLY.

127
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:12,966
SHE HAS RAISED QUESTIONS ABOUT

128
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:15,300
MARK KIRK'S EFFECTIVENESS.

129
00:05:10,666 --> 00:05:17,333
KIRK IS IN THIS POSITION WHERE

130
00:05:12,966 --> 00:05:20,266
HE CAN'T -- HE HASN'T ENDORSED

131
00:05:15,300 --> 00:05:21,766
THE PARTY'S NOMINEE.

132
00:05:17,333 --> 00:05:25,766
REPUBLICAN PARTY IS NOT BACKING

133
00:05:20,266 --> 00:05:27,933
HIM VERY STRONGLY.

134
00:05:21,766 --> 00:05:28,300
HE SEEMS TO BE IN A FAIRLY WEAK

135
00:05:25,766 --> 00:05:31,166
POSITION GOING INTO THE

136
00:05:27,933 --> 00:05:33,833
ELECTION.

137
00:05:28,300 --> 00:05:34,833
>> JOEL: THEY HAVE TAKEN AWAY

138
00:05:31,166 --> 00:05:36,766
PREVIOUSLY COMMITTED AD BUYS,

139
00:05:33,833 --> 00:05:37,166
NATIONAL PARTY HAS.

140
00:05:34,833 --> 00:05:39,000
SOME PEOPLE SAY, THEY ARE TUBING

141
00:05:36,766 --> 00:05:40,700
THEM.

142
00:05:37,166 --> 00:05:43,300
THEY THINK HE HAS NO CHANCE.

143
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:45,533
>> I THINK HERE IN CHICAGO WHICH

144
00:05:40,700 --> 00:05:46,966
IS WHERE I AM AROUND, I DON'T

145
00:05:43,300 --> 00:05:49,700
HEAR MANY TALKING ABOUT, THIS IS

146
00:05:45,533 --> 00:05:53,666
A SENATE CAMPAIGN.

147
00:05:46,966 --> 00:05:56,166
IT IS USUALLY A BIG DEAL.

148
00:05:49,700 --> 00:05:58,666
YOU HAVE A WEEKEND INCUMBENT.

149
00:05:53,666 --> 00:06:02,566
I DON'T HEAR PEOPLE ENTHUSIASTIC

150
00:05:56,166 --> 00:06:04,966
ABOUT TAMMY DUCKWORTH.

151
00:05:58,666 --> 00:06:08,300
CHICAGO IS MOSTLY DEMOCRATS.

152
00:06:02,566 --> 00:06:10,700
>> JOEL: USUALLY INCUMBENTS

153
00:06:04,966 --> 00:06:11,733
DON'T ALLOW TOO MANY DEBATES.

154
00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:13,266
TAMMY WANTED FIVE ORIGINALLY

155
00:06:10,700 --> 00:06:14,966
AGAINST MARK KIRK.

156
00:06:11,733 --> 00:06:16,733
HE WAS WILLING TO GIVE HER THREE

157
00:06:13,266 --> 00:06:21,100
ONE IN SPANISH.

158
00:06:14,966 --> 00:06:26,366
NOW SHE IS GIVING FOUR.

159
00:06:16,733 --> 00:06:28,933
SHE IS BOYCOTTING CHANNEL 11.

160
00:06:21,100 --> 00:06:30,933
ALMOST EVERY CANDIDATE USES.

161
00:06:26,366 --> 00:06:33,566
ARE THESE DEBATES IMPORTANT?

162
00:06:28,933 --> 00:06:36,600
>> THEY CAN BE IF IT IS A TIGHT

163
00:06:30,933 --> 00:06:38,733
CONTEST AND PEOPLE ARE LOOKING

164
00:06:33,566 --> 00:06:39,133
AT THE ISSUES.

165
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,633
AGAIN CHICAGO TENDS TO BE

166
00:06:38,733 --> 00:06:43,433
DEMOCRATIC.

167
00:06:39,133 --> 00:06:43,866
THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT

168
00:06:40,633 --> 00:06:45,900
HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT KIRK'S

169
00:06:43,433 --> 00:06:46,766
EFFECTIVENESS.

170
00:06:43,866 --> 00:06:48,066
THAT HAS PUT REALLY EFFECTED THE

171
00:06:45,900 --> 00:06:50,566
RACE.

172
00:06:46,766 --> 00:06:51,000
>> JOEL: DOESN'T THAT GIVE HIM

173
00:06:48,066 --> 00:06:53,400
THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW HE IS

174
00:06:50,566 --> 00:06:55,733
EFFECTIVE?

175
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:57,566
LET'S BE HONEST, THEY ARE

176
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:59,400
WORRIED TO SEE IF HE IS FULLY

177
00:06:55,733 --> 00:07:03,933
RECOVERED FROM HIS STROKE?

178
00:06:57,566 --> 00:07:08,033
>> THAT IS PROBABLY THE ISSUE.

179
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:11,266
COVERAGE OF THE DEBATE AT THE

180
00:07:03,933 --> 00:07:12,533
EDITORIAL BOARD, KIRK'S WASN'T

181
00:07:08,033 --> 00:07:15,500
AS VIGOROUS AS ONE EXPECTED.

182
00:07:11,266 --> 00:07:19,233
THERE IS NO EVIDENCE HIS STROKE

183
00:07:12,533 --> 00:07:20,600
HAS EFFECTED HIS ABILITY TO

184
00:07:15,500 --> 00:07:24,900
THINK CLEARLY, TO WORK ON THE

185
00:07:19,233 --> 00:07:30,000
LEGISLATION.

186
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:31,500
>> JOEL: WOULD YOU AGREE?

187
00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:36,766
>> HIS NOT AS GLIB AS HE ONCE

188
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:41,233
WOULD YOU SAY.

189

REPUBLICANS, IF THEY ARE PULLING

MONEY OUT OF ILLINOIS IT IS

193
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:51,466
BECAUSE THEY HAVE OTHER RACES

194
00:07:47,066 --> 00:07:53,600
THEY HAVE TO AMP UP ON.

195
00:07:49,666 --> 00:08:00,533
>> JOEL: RACE THAT ALMOST NEVER

196
00:07:51,466 --> 00:08:07,700
GETS ATTENTION, IRONICALLY THIS

GOVERNORS OF BRUCE ROUNER.

201

A BUSINESSMAN, DONE VERY WELL

202
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:26,166
FOR THEMSELVES, THIS IS A

203
00:08:20,066 --> 00:08:28,533
CRITICAL RACE FOR THE GOVERNOR.

204
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:30,933
FOR HIM TO LOSE APPOINTEE IT IS

205
00:08:26,166 --> 00:08:35,533
GOING TO BE DIFFICULT FOR HIM.

206
00:08:28,533 --> 00:08:39,300
>> JOEL: IS SHE IN TROUBLE?

207
00:08:30,933 --> 00:08:42,566

00:08:46,100 --> 00:08:52,566
CAMPAIGN IS JUST BEGINNING.

212
00:08:48,966 --> 00:08:55,233
TV ADS CAN DRIVE POLLS UP AND

213
00:08:51,700 --> 00:08:57,633
DOWN.

214
00:08:52,566 --> 00:08:59,000
>> THIS IS AN OFFICE NOT LONG AL

215
00:08:55,233 --> 00:09:00,200
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT

216
00:08:57,633 --> 00:09:02,133
ELIMINATING ALTOGETHER.

217
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:05,933
NOW THERE IS A STREET FIGHT

218
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:07,766
GOING ON.

219
00:09:02,133 --> 00:09:09,766
IT DOES, I THINK YOU ARE RIGHT,

220
00:09:05,933 --> 00:09:10,100
GOVERNOR'S NEED TO SOLIDIFY SOME

221
00:09:07,766 --> 00:09:13,200
HOLD ON LEADERSHIP ACROSS THE

222
00:09:09,766 --> 00:09:15,033
STATE.

223
00:09:10,100 --> 00:09:16,066
>> IT IS A RACE BASED ON PARTY

224
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:19,333
LOYALTY THEN ON QUALIFICATION OF

225
00:09:15,033 --> 00:09:21,400
THE CANDIDATES.

226
00:09:16,066 --> 00:09:27,100
THIS IS WHAT IT COMES DOWN TO.

227
00:09:19,333 --> 00:09:29,000
>> JOEL: MENDOZA STARTING HER

228
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:31,800
ADS AND CHOSEN TO SAY WHAT THE

229
00:09:27,100 --> 00:09:33,366
COMPTROLLER DOES.

230
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:34,166
>> MANY PEOPLE VOTE FOR IT AND

231
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,966
DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THAT PERSON

232
00:09:33,366 --> 00:09:37,366
DOES.

233
00:09:34,166 --> 00:09:40,366
>> JOEL: WITH ALL DO RESPECT, DO

234
00:09:35,966 --> 00:09:42,066
YOU?

235
00:09:37,366 --> 00:09:43,833
>> THE COMPTROLLER WRITES THE

236
00:09:40,366 --> 00:09:46,300
CHECKS FOR THE STATE.

237
00:09:42,066 --> 00:09:46,866

240
00:09:46,866 --> 00:09:52,700
GOING UP TO 14 BILLION DOLLARS.

241
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:58,066
THAT IS A DIFFICULT JOB THEY

242
00:09:51,433 --> 00:10:02,366
CAN'T PAY THEIR BILLS.

243
00:09:52,700 --> 00:10:03,300
>> THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF

00:09:58,066 --> 00:10:07,566
POLITICAL DECISIONS COMPTROLLER

245
00:10:02,366 --> 00:10:09,733
HAS TO MAKE.

246
00:10:03,300 --> 00:10:11,800
>> JOEL: TEACHERS UNION AND

247
00:10:07,566 --> 00:10:13,000
SCHOOL BOARD INTENSIFY.

248
00:10:09,733 --> 00:10:15,533
SCHOOLS WILL STAY OPEN IF THE

249
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:19,333
TEACHERS GO OUT.

250
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:21,833

BOARD.

254
00:10:22,133 --> 00:10:28,166
IS THERE GOING TO BE A STRIKE?

255
00:10:25,566 --> 00:10:30,533
>> I CAN'T SAY FOR ONE WAY OR

256
00:10:27,366 --> 00:10:32,000
THE OTHER.

257
00:10:28,166 --> 00:10:35,400
I FEEL LIKE THERE COULD BE A

258
00:10:30,533 --> 00:10:35,833
DEAL BEFORE TUESDAY.

259
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:37,866
THEY ARE GOING TO BE NEGOTIATING

260
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,833
EVERYDAY.

261
00:10:35,833 --> 00:10:42,000
THEY HAVE TOLD THEIR BID

262
00:10:37,866 --> 00:10:48,033
BARGAINING TEAM TO COME IN

263
00:10:38,833 --> 00:10:48,333
TOMORROW DURING THE DAY.

264
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:51,500
WHAT THEY ARE WAITING FOR A

265
00:10:48,033 --> 00:10:51,866
SOLID.

266
00:10:48,333 --> 00:10:54,233
I THINK THE DEVIL IS IN THE

267
00:10:51,500 --> 00:10:55,966
DETAILS.

268
00:10:51,866 --> 00:10:57,200
ARE THERE DETAIL IT IS UNION CAN

269
00:10:54,233 --> 00:11:00,166
ACCEPT AND CAN THEY SELL IT TO

270
00:10:55,966 --> 00:11:01,333
THEIR MEMBERS?

271
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:04,000
>> JOEL: WHY SHOULD THE UNION

272
00:11:00,166 --> 00:11:06,600
EVER BELIEVE THE SCHOOL BOARD

273
00:11:01,333 --> 00:11:07,700
WHEN IT SAYS THEY HAVE NO MONEY.

274
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:08,100
APPARENTLY THEY ARE SCUFFLING

275
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,433
AROUND AND GET EVEN YET MORE

276
00:11:07,700 --> 00:11:13,133
MONEY.

277
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:14,966
>> LOOKS LIKE THE MAYOR IS GOING

278
00:11:10,433 --> 00:11:15,366
TO DO WHAT THEY WANT, SEARCH FOR

279
00:11:13,133 --> 00:11:20,366
MORE MONEY FOR THE SCHOOL

280
00:11:14,966 --> 00:11:22,900
DISTRICT.

281
00:11:15,366 --> 00:11:24,266
I HAVE A THEORY ON THIS, MAYOR

282
00:11:20,366 --> 00:11:28,166
LOW BALLED THE AMOUNT BECAUSE HE

283
00:11:22,900 --> 00:11:29,233
KNOWS THERE IS MORE MONEY HE CAN

284
00:11:24,266 --> 00:11:31,233
COME IN AND SAVE THE DAY WITH

285
00:11:28,166 --> 00:11:32,833
EXTRA MONEY.

286
00:11:29,233 --> 00:11:34,533
>> WHAT THE SCHOOL SYSTEM'S

287
00:11:31,233 --> 00:11:37,233
FINANCIAL SITUATION IS.

288
00:11:32,833 --> 00:11:38,500
THERE IS A STRAIGHT FACED CASE

289
00:11:34,533 --> 00:11:41,300
TO BE MADE THAT THE SYSTEM HAS

290
00:11:37,233 --> 00:11:42,633
LITTLE TO NO MONEY.

291
00:11:38,500 --> 00:11:44,233
AT SOME POINTS EARLIER, THEY

292
00:11:41,300 --> 00:11:45,633
BASICALLY HAD FIVE MILLION

293
00:11:42,633 --> 00:11:48,033
DOLLARS, SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS

294
00:11:44,233 --> 00:11:52,300
IN THEIR BANK ACCOUNT.

295
00:11:45,633 --> 00:11:55,466
THAT IS NOT ENOUGH TO RUN A BIG

296
00:11:48,033 --> 00:11:55,866
SCHOOL SYSTEM LIKE CHICAGO.

297
00:11:52,300 --> 00:11:57,400
THERE ARE OTHER MONEYS

298
00:11:55,466 --> 00:11:57,900
AVAILABLE.

299
00:11:55,866 --> 00:11:59,533
THAT IS NOT IN THEIR BUDGET

300
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,166
RIGHT NOW.

301
00:11:57,900 --> 00:12:03,433
THEY HAVE TO DRAW MONEY AWAY

302
00:11:59,533 --> 00:12:05,566
FROM THE DISTRICTS.

303
00:12:01,166 --> 00:12:06,666
>> JOEL: DIDN'T THE MAYOR TALK

304
00:12:03,433 --> 00:12:08,366
ABOUT USING IT FOR OTHER THINGS

305
00:12:05,566 --> 00:12:10,233
HOW MANY TIMES CAN YOU USE THE

306
00:12:06,666 --> 00:12:11,800
SAME DOLLARS?

307
00:12:08,366 --> 00:12:13,566
>> USUALLY ONCE.

308
00:12:10,233 --> 00:12:15,400
THAT IS PART OF THE PROBLEM.

309
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:20,000
MAYOR SEEMS WILLING TO TAKE IT

310
00:12:13,566 --> 00:12:21,300
OUT OF THE TIP DISTRICTS.

311
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:22,966
TROUBLE IT IS NOT A RELIABLE

312
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,133
FUNDING MECHANISM.

313
00:12:21,300 --> 00:12:28,133
IT IS A DANGEROUS THING TO RELY

314
00:12:22,966 --> 00:12:30,866
ON THE TIP DISTRICTS.

315
00:12:25,133 --> 00:12:32,733
>> CLEARLY THE SCHOOLS ARE IN A

316
00:12:28,133 --> 00:12:34,800
FINANCIAL CRISIS.

317
00:12:30,866 --> 00:12:41,300
NO DIFFERENT THAN ANY --

318
00:12:32,733 --> 00:12:43,333
>> JOEL: WHEN HAVE THE SCHOOLS

319
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:46,533
NOT BEEN IN A FINANCIAL  CRISIS?

320
00:12:41,300 --> 00:12:49,666
>> THAT WAS A PARTIAL CRISIS.

321
00:12:43,333 --> 00:12:52,933
NOW WE HAVE THE REAL CRISIS.

322
00:12:46,533 --> 00:12:53,966
>> NO QUESTION FINANCIAL

323
00:12:49,666 --> 00:12:57,300
CONDITION IS WORSE NOW.

324
00:12:52,933 --> 00:12:59,233
EMPLOYEES AT ANY ORGANIZATION

325
00:12:53,966 --> 00:13:00,433
GOING THROUGH A HARSH TIME.

326
00:12:57,300 --> 00:13:03,700
IT IS INCUMBENT ON THE TEACHERS

327
00:12:59,233 --> 00:13:06,033
TO PITCH IN.

328
00:13:00,433 --> 00:13:07,433
TAX PAYORS PONYING UP WITH MAJOR

329
00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:09,433
PROPERTY INCREASES.

330
00:13:06,033 --> 00:13:12,433
TEACHERS, CASES TO BE MADE

331
00:13:07,433 --> 00:13:14,833
TEACHERS HAVE TO PARTICIPATE IN

332
00:13:09,433 --> 00:13:19,133
ORDER FOR US TO --

333
00:13:12,433 --> 00:13:22,033
>> JOEL: HE MAYBE RIGHT IN TERMS

334
00:13:14,833 --> 00:13:23,533
OF THEY SHOULD PONY UP?

335
00:13:19,133 --> 00:13:27,366
DON'T PARENTS FEEL THE CITY

336
00:13:22,033 --> 00:13:32,066
SHOULD GIVE THEM MORE MONEY SO

337
00:13:23,533 --> 00:13:35,000
THEIR KIDS ARE TAKEN CARE OF AND

338
00:13:27,366 --> 00:13:35,633
WON'T BE A STRIKE?

339
00:13:32,066 --> 00:13:37,900
>> ONE OF THE THINGS THAT IS

340
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:46,166
DICEY.

341
00:13:35,633 --> 00:13:48,400
>> JOEL: IS THAT JOUR ANSWER?

342
00:13:37,900 --> 00:13:49,000
>> ONE THING THAT IS A MISNOMER.

343
00:13:46,166 --> 00:13:51,833
THEY ARE SAYING WE WANT IT TO BE

344
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:53,666
A WASH.

345
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,966
WE DON'T WANT TO START AT THE

346
00:13:51,833 --> 00:13:56,566
BEGINNING AND END WIND UP WITH

347
00:13:53,666 --> 00:13:58,700
LESS.

348
00:13:53,966 --> 00:14:01,766
IF YOU ARE A UNION, YOUR JOB IS

349
00:13:56,566 --> 00:14:03,300
TO NEGOTIATE A CONTRACT YOUR

350
00:13:58,700 --> 00:14:03,566
MEMBERS NOT END UP WITH LESS.

351
00:14:01,766 --> 00:14:06,300
WHETHER YOU AGREE WITH IT OR

352
00:14:03,300 --> 00:14:08,100
NOT.

353
00:14:03,566 --> 00:14:14,000
IF MY UNION VOTED TO APPROVE THE

354
00:14:06,300 --> 00:14:16,433
CONTRACT, I AM GOING TO GET

355
00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:16,800
LESS, I WOULD NOT BE VERY HAPPY.

356
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:19,300
>> RANK AND FILE REJECTED THE

357
00:14:16,433 --> 00:14:21,300
CONTRACT.

358
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:24,933
BIG ISSUE IS HOW MUCH TEACHERS

359
00:14:19,300 --> 00:14:28,766
HAVE TO CONTRIBUTE TOWARD THEIR

360
00:14:21,300 --> 00:14:32,133
OWN PENSIONS, 2% RIGHT NOW.

361
00:14:24,933 --> 00:14:36,666
THAT IS THE BIG FIGHT.

362
00:14:28,766 --> 00:14:39,366
>> JOEL: THEY HAVE SUPPOSED TO

363
00:14:32,133 --> 00:14:40,700
HAVE BEEN PAYING 9%.

364
00:14:36,666 --> 00:14:44,500
THE TEACHER'S SHARE WAS SUPPOSED

365
00:14:39,366 --> 00:14:47,700
TO BE 9%.

366
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:48,000
NOW THE TEACHERS ONLY PAY 2%.

367
00:14:44,500 --> 00:14:50,400
>> THAT IS A BIG FIGHT RIGHT

368
00:14:47,700 --> 00:14:53,766
NOW.

369
00:14:48,000 --> 00:15:00,266
>> THING IS THOUGH, UNION WILL

370
00:14:50,400 --> 00:15:03,333
KICK IN 7%.

371
00:14:53,766 --> 00:15:03,700
WE WANT RAISES TO MAKE IT EQUAL.

372
00:15:00,266 --> 00:15:05,166
WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE FOR

373
00:15:03,333 --> 00:15:05,766
EVERYBODY.

374
00:15:03,700 --> 00:15:07,100
>> JOEL: THINK THERE IS GOING TO

375
00:15:05,166 --> 00:15:08,933
BE A STRIKE?

376
00:15:05,766 --> 00:15:11,100
>> I DON'T KNOW.

377
00:15:07,100 --> 00:15:14,533
THERE IS A LOT LESS ANIMOSITY

378
00:15:08,933 --> 00:15:15,566
THAN A COUPLE OF YEAR AGO.

379
00:15:11,100 --> 00:15:21,400
I THINK THERE IS REALISM ON BOTH

380
00:15:14,533 --> 00:15:24,700
SIDES.

381
00:15:15,566 --> 00:15:26,333
>> JOEL: TO TOM'S POINT WHEN YOU

382
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:27,700
ARE IN NEGOTIATION, THERE IS NOT

383
00:15:24,700 --> 00:15:30,666
MUCH POINT STRIKING IF THERE IS

384
00:15:26,333 --> 00:15:39,266
NO MONEY.

385
00:15:27,700 --> 00:15:42,466
>> JOEL: IF THEY STRIKE AND

386
00:15:30,666 --> 00:15:45,200
CAUSE ENOUGH INCONVENIENCE MONEY

387
00:15:39,266 --> 00:15:49,266
WILL MATERIALIZE.

388
00:15:42,466 --> 00:15:51,000
>> JOEL: LET'S GO TO OTHER CITY

389
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:53,366
NEWS, CITY COUNCIL EASILY

390
00:15:49,266 --> 00:15:56,100
APPROVES PART OF THE

391
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:59,466
ACCOUNTABILITY REFORM.

392
00:15:53,366 --> 00:16:02,933
SANCTITY OF LIFE IN USE OF

393
00:15:56,100 --> 00:16:06,700
FORCE.

394
00:15:59,466 --> 00:16:12,600
ORDNANCE TO STRIP DONALD TRUMP

395
00:16:02,933 --> 00:16:16,466
-- CITY TRIES TO EMBARRASS

396
00:16:06,700 --> 00:16:21,366
ALDERMAN WITH PLAYOFF TICKETS.

397
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:27,500
LET'S TALK ABOUT COPE PA BOARD

398
00:16:16,466 --> 00:16:30,533
WHICH STANDS FOR ABILITY IN

399
00:16:21,366 --> 00:16:35,200
OFFICE OF POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY.

400
00:16:27,500 --> 00:16:38,733
GOOD OR BAD THING?

401
00:16:30,533 --> 00:16:39,833
>> CLEARLY THE RECORD SHOWS WE

402
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:46,600
NEED AN OVERSIGHT BOARD WITH

403
00:16:38,733 --> 00:16:51,000
MORE TEETH.

404
00:16:39,833 --> 00:16:53,633
ONE OF THE KEY THINGS, INCREASE

405
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:54,733
SUP SUBPOENA POWER AND CASES OF

406
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:57,333
USE OF FORCE ETC. STEP IN THE

407
00:16:53,633 --> 00:16:59,400
RIGHT DIRECTION.

408
00:16:54,733 --> 00:17:02,766
MAY NOT BE A CURE ALL.

409
00:16:57,333 --> 00:17:04,500
IT IS AN IMPROVEMENT.

410
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:09,733
>> JOEL: RIGHT AFTER THAT PASSED

411
00:17:02,766 --> 00:17:11,233
THAT, TODAY THE CITY COMES OUT

412
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:13,266
WITH A NEW POLICY MUST BEEN AN

413
00:17:09,733 --> 00:17:14,500
IMMEDIATE THREAT OF FORCE BEFORE

414
00:17:11,233 --> 00:17:17,633
THEY CAN USE THEIR GUNS.

415
00:17:13,266 --> 00:17:18,000
UP UNTIL THEN THEY HAVE BEEN

416
00:17:14,500 --> 00:17:20,000
ABLE TO FIRE AT FLEEING

417
00:17:17,633 --> 00:17:23,200
SUSPECTS.

418
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:24,266
DO YOU BELIEVE THIS POLICY WILL

419
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:26,266
BE FIRED AND SATISFY THE FEDERAL

420
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,666
GOVERNMENT WHICH IS NOW

421
00:17:24,266 --> 00:17:27,900
EXAMINING THE CHICAGO POLICE

422
00:17:26,266 --> 00:17:29,166
DEPARTMENT.

423
00:17:26,666 --> 00:17:31,433
>> THAT IS A COMPLETELY

424
00:17:27,900 --> 00:17:34,233
DIFFERENT MATTER.

425
00:17:29,166 --> 00:17:38,466
FACT THEY ARE IMPLEMENTING THIS,

426
00:17:31,433 --> 00:17:42,300
SHOULD BE A NO BRAINER, YOU HAVE

427
00:17:34,233 --> 00:17:46,966
TO HAVE AN IMMINENT THREAT

428
00:17:38,466 --> 00:17:47,700
BEFORE YOU CAN FIRE.

429
00:17:42,300 --> 00:17:51,700
>> ALSO WHO IS APPOINTED TO THE

430
00:17:46,966 --> 00:17:55,066
BOARD?

431
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:55,366
CITIZEN COULD BE A CITIZEN OR --

432
00:17:51,700 --> 00:17:58,133
>> JOEL: RUBBER STAMP FROM THE

433
00:17:55,066 --> 00:17:58,533
MAYOR.

434
00:17:55,366 --> 00:18:01,266
>> IT SHOULD BE MORE FROM THE

435
00:17:58,133 --> 00:18:02,866
COMMUNITY.

436
00:17:58,533 --> 00:18:05,933
>> JOEL: PEOPLE PROTESTING, WANT

437
00:18:01,266 --> 00:18:08,566
THOSE PEOPLE ELECTED?

438
00:18:02,866 --> 00:18:10,633
>> NOT ELECTED BUT SOME

439
00:18:05,933 --> 00:18:11,900
COMMUNITY INPUT.

440
00:18:08,566 --> 00:18:14,033
>> JOEL: THAT THEY'LL HAVE VETO

441
00:18:10,633 --> 00:18:16,300
POWER.

442
00:18:11,900 --> 00:18:19,400
NICE TO PROTEST, DO THEY HAVE

443
00:18:14,033 --> 00:18:25,700
THEIR OWN PLAN IS MY QUESTION?

444
00:18:16,300 --> 00:18:29,166
>> I JUST HEARD THE PIECES ON

445
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:31,266
THE RADIO AND READ ABOUT IT.

446
00:18:25,700 --> 00:18:35,300
IT IS A RUBBER STAMP ON THE

447
00:18:29,166 --> 00:18:40,033
POLICE BOARD SO FAR.

448
00:18:31,266 --> 00:18:41,533
IT HAS BEEN A RUBBER STAMP.

449
00:18:35,300 --> 00:18:43,866
SOME OF THE PEOPLE DID SEEM

450
00:18:40,033 --> 00:18:44,333
POLITICALLY CORRECTED.

451
00:18:41,533 --> 00:18:47,133
YOU WANT TO HAVE SOME

452
00:18:43,866 --> 00:18:50,700
SEPARATION.

453
00:18:44,333 --> 00:18:53,233
>> JOEL: IS IT FAKE REFORM?

454
00:18:47,133 --> 00:18:55,000
>> I WOULDN'T GO THAT FAR, IF

455
00:18:50,700 --> 00:18:56,800
PEOPLE DON'T FEEL LIKE THEY CAN

456
00:18:53,233 --> 00:18:59,366
EXPOSE THINGS.

457
00:18:55,000 --> 00:19:02,400
A LOT OF TROUBLE WHEN PEOPLE

458
00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:04,366
TRIED TO EXPOSE THINGS.

459
00:18:59,366 --> 00:19:05,133
>> JOEL: YOU THINK THERE WOULD

460
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:08,300
BE AN HONORARY STREET NAMED

461
00:19:04,366 --> 00:19:11,266
AFTER ME?

462
00:19:05,133 --> 00:19:16,833
>> WILL BE JUST LIKE DONALD

463
00:19:08,300 --> 00:19:20,700
TRUMP'S HONORARY STREET WHICH IS

464
00:19:11,266 --> 00:19:23,566
WABASH NEAR THE TRUMP TOWER.

465
00:19:16,833 --> 00:19:25,933
IS THIS A BIG SYMBOL IF YOU TAKE

466
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:26,266
AWAY DONALD TRUMP'S HONORARY

467
00:19:23,566 --> 00:19:29,100
BECAUSE HE HAS BEEN BAD MOUTHING

468
00:19:25,933 --> 00:19:30,933
CHICAGO?

469
00:19:26,266 --> 00:19:33,900
>> PROBABLY ONLY TO DONALD

470
00:19:29,100 --> 00:19:35,766
TRUMP.

471
00:19:30,933 --> 00:19:38,366
THE REST OF US, YOU KNOW, I

472
00:19:33,900 --> 00:19:41,900
THINK COULD CARE LESS.

473
00:19:35,766 --> 00:19:46,100
BIG THING IS HE HAS HIS BIG NAME

474
00:19:38,366 --> 00:19:47,200
ON THE RIVER TO BE SEEN.

475
00:19:41,900 --> 00:19:48,933
>> JOEL: IS THIS A GREAT STORY,

476
00:19:46,100 --> 00:19:50,066
ALDERMAN TOOK CONTRIBUTIONS FROM

477
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:53,866
DONALD TRUMP NOW OFFERING TO

478
00:19:48,933 --> 00:19:56,000
RETURN THEM.

479
00:19:50,066 --> 00:19:59,566
>> I THINK THOSE BROWN STREET

480
00:19:53,866 --> 00:20:02,466
NAMES.

481
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:05,733
THERE WAS A BIG NAME AFTER HUGH

482
00:19:59,566 --> 00:20:10,366
HEFNER HAVING A NAME.

483
00:20:02,466 --> 00:20:12,566
WATCH YOUR TWITTER FEED.

484
00:20:05,733 --> 00:20:13,266
>> JOEL: THEY CONFUSE VISITORS.

485
00:20:10,366 --> 00:20:15,533
WE TALKED ABOUT THE DEBATE IN

486
00:20:12,566 --> 00:20:17,466
OUR OPEN.

487
00:20:13,266 --> 00:20:19,600
DO YOU THINK DONALD TRUMP'S

488
00:20:15,533 --> 00:20:22,700
TAXES STILL A BIG ISSUE OR DO

489
00:20:17,466 --> 00:20:25,133
YOU THINK HE IS GOING TO GET

490
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:29,200
AWAY WITH NOT DISCLOSING THEM?

491
00:20:22,700 --> 00:20:30,166
>> THERE IS NO EXPECTATIONS HE

492
00:20:25,133 --> 00:20:33,366
IS GOING TO DISCLOSE HIS TAXES.

493
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:36,533
NOBODY WOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE

494
00:20:30,166 --> 00:20:40,666
SENSE OUT OF THEM.

495
00:20:33,366 --> 00:20:41,033
FROM WHAT THE "NEW YORK TIMES,"

496
00:20:36,533 --> 00:20:44,533
HE TOOK A HUGE WRITE OFF IN

497
00:20:40,666 --> 00:20:44,933
1995.

498
00:20:41,033 --> 00:20:48,133
I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY DREW THE

499
00:20:44,533 --> 00:20:50,233
CONCLUSION.

500
00:20:44,933 --> 00:20:53,033
IT IS CLEAR HE HAS AGGRESSIVELY

501
00:20:48,133 --> 00:20:55,400
USED THE TAX CODE.

502
00:20:50,233 --> 00:20:57,800
HE IS PROUD OF IT.

503
00:20:53,033 --> 00:20:58,500
IF YOU ARE SUCH A GENIUS, DOES

504
00:20:55,400 --> 00:21:00,100
THAT MAKE THE REST OF US FOOLS.

505
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:03,866

506
00:20:58,500 --> 00:21:04,233
>> JOEL: WHAT ABOUT THE REST OF

507
00:21:00,100 --> 00:21:08,500
US THAT USE IT, GENIUSES OR

508
00:21:03,866 --> 00:21:11,833
FOOLS?

509
00:21:04,233 --> 00:21:12,400
>> I THINK YOU ARE GENIUSES,

510
00:21:08,500 --> 00:21:15,033
JOEL.

511
00:21:11,833 --> 00:21:17,600
[LAUGHTER].

512
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:20,366
>> ISN'T THE QUESTION DO HIS

513
00:21:15,033 --> 00:21:22,166
SUPPORTERS, I AM PAYING MY

514
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:25,100
TAXES, WHY SHOULDN'T HE PAY HIS

515
00:21:20,366 --> 00:21:27,266
TAXES?

516
00:21:22,166 --> 00:21:32,066
>> JOEL: A LOT OF THE REPORTERS

517
00:21:25,100 --> 00:21:34,900
TAKING STOCK LOSSES.

518
00:21:27,266 --> 00:21:36,666
>> THE PEOPLE WHO VOTE FOR THEM,

519
00:21:32,066 --> 00:21:38,633
DOES THIS EFFECT THEM?

520
00:21:34,900 --> 00:21:40,300
>> JOEL: HE SLIPPED IN THE

521
00:21:36,666 --> 00:21:41,700
POLLS, DO YOU THINK IT IS

522
00:21:38,633 --> 00:21:44,033
BECAUSE OF THE TAX ISSUE OR BAD

523
00:21:40,300 --> 00:21:47,400
PERFORMANCE IN THE FIRST DEBATE?

524
00:21:41,700 --> 00:21:48,300
>> IT IS A COMBINATION.

525
00:21:44,033 --> 00:21:49,400
HE MAKES CRITICISMS OF POOR

526
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,900
INFRASTRUCTURE, AIRPORTS ARE

527
00:21:48,300 --> 00:21:53,233
THIRD WORLD.

528
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:55,400
TALKS ABOUT THE MILITARY NOT

529
00:21:50,900 --> 00:21:57,433
BEING EFFECTIVE.

530
00:21:53,233 --> 00:22:00,066
TAXES WILL PAY FOR THOSE THINGS.

531
00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:00,366
THERE IS CLEARLY A DISCONNECT.

532
00:21:57,433 --> 00:22:05,100
THAT IS STARTING TO SINK IN FOR

533
00:22:00,066 --> 00:22:07,766
SOME.

534
00:22:00,366 --> 00:22:08,100
>> INTERESTING THE FAMILY TRY TO

535
00:22:05,100 --> 00:22:10,333
DEFLATE PERSONAL WITH CORPORATE

536
00:22:07,766 --> 00:22:10,900
TAXES.

00:22:14,333 --> 00:22:20,200
AGAINST POST SEASON SAVVY

541
00:22:17,733 --> 00:22:23,033
GIANTS.

542
00:22:18,066 --> 00:22:24,166
WHITE SOX MANAGER SWAP.

CUTLER BENCHED.

545
00:22:24,166 --> 00:22:31,466
TELL ME ABOUT WHY THE GIANTS

546
00:22:28,066 --> 00:22:33,366
DON'T HAVE AS GOOD A CHANCE

547
00:22:29,333 --> 00:22:34,766
BEATING THE CUBS?

548
00:22:31,466 --> 00:22:35,700
>> I THINK THEY DO.

549
00:22:33,366 --> 00:22:38,800
THAT IS NOT GOING TO BE A

550
00:22:34,766 --> 00:22:44,233
POPULAR OPINION.

551
00:22:35,700 --> 00:22:50,766
>> JOEL: I AM WITH YOU ON THAT.

552
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:54,066
>> JOINTS WON THREE WORLD SERIES

553
00:22:44,233 --> 00:22:55,700
LAST THREE IT IS 2016.

554
00:22:50,766 --> 00:22:58,866
THREE IN A ROW IS IMPRESSIVE.

555
00:22:54,066 --> 00:23:02,200
EVERYBODY POINTS TO THE FACT

556
00:22:55,700 --> 00:23:09,466
CUBS HAD THE BEST RECORD, ONLY

557
00:22:58,866 --> 00:23:09,800
FOUR TIMES LAST 22 YEARS GONE ON

558
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:11,900
TO WIN WORLD SERE RIR  --

559
00:23:09,466 --> 00:23:15,433
SERIES.

560
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:18,300
GIANTS HAVE GREAT PITCHING.

561
00:23:11,900 --> 00:23:20,800
I THINK THIS IS A LOT MORE

562
00:23:15,433 --> 00:23:21,666
DIFFICULT THAN PEOPLE ARE

563
00:23:18,300 --> 00:23:25,633
