Assyrian American GOP group endorses candidates in Illinois

In Illinois, where dead people vote, you have no excuse not to vote. – Lt. Col Sargis Sangari (Ret)

Senator Darren Bailey: GOP Nominee for IL Governor, & SB2900, New Paradigms w/Sargis Sangari EP #111, on New Paradigms with Sargis Sangari, Episode #111, Illinois State Senator Darren Bailey, The Republican Nominee for Illinois Governor, joined me to discuss the issues and topics of interest for Illinois voters.

We also discussed the status of IL SB2900, which was introduced on 18 MAY 21 by Senator Bailey, in designating 7 August of each year as The Assyrian Martyrs Day.

I also ask Senator Bailey to explain how a Republican governor can have the power to clean up corruption in Illinois when the Democratic machine controls nearly every facet of life in Chicago with policies buried in the corrupt Democracy bureaucracy for half a century.

Senator Bailey also addressed my question about why Illinois is having problems managing the crime issue, especially in Chicago. His short answer was that the two sides of the aisle are not talking.
Senator Bailey also expanded on what his administration would do on his first day in office. He addressed the pension issues, and I highlighted that most of those issues are tied to Wall St. Pension Investment companies who choose investments based on benefits for companies in China that the CCP leads.

Join me for this first part of a two-part interview with Senator Bailey.
