If you have listened to local political “news” coverage recently, you probably heard the establishment media dutifully reporting J.B. Pritzker‘s latest attack on his opponent, State Senator Darren Bailey (R-Xenia), for something he said five years ago. What did Bailey say that was so controversial? He said,
