Join hosts Tom Murphy and John Williams at Rewired's fenced-in, open-air patio, and enjoy locally roasted coffee and delicious breakfast items.

Each week’s discussion is typically accompanied by some readings you’ll receive in advance via email. Topics for the subsequent week are decided at the previous discussion. This week’s topics are:

• The upcoming Illinois elections:

  • A discussion of the issues separating Gov Pritzker and Republican challenger Darren Bailey

  • The pros/cons of the proposed Illinois constitutional amendment (Right to Collective Bargaining Measure)

  • The Illinois Supreme Court retention/election races

• Ukraine:

  • What is the interest of the West in supporting Ukrainian territorial integrity?

  • How far should the west go in supporting the war effort in Ukraine?

  • What will the “endgame” of the current military contest between Russia and Ukraine likely involve?

Register at least two days in advance by sending an email to tjmurphy4@comcast.net. You will then be sent the suggested readings and the Zoom link in case you are not able to attend in person.
