Domestic terrorist Bill Ayers tells his five-year-old grandson to start a revolution this year.
Ayers receives a $105,613.56 a year pension from taxpayers for his decades-long work as a public educator and should take back his melodramatic advice
Bill Ayers is the Suburban Illinois-born son of CommonWealth Edison CEO who became a famous fugitive domestic terrorist in the 1970s.
Ayers was a key member of the of the far left Weather Underground. The Weather Underground declared war on America, "debated the ethics of killing white babies," and "was responsible for at least 25 bombings of government buildings, including at the Capitol and the Pentagon."
Ayers never served prison time for his domestic terrorist activities due to general FBI misconduct during Operation COINTELPRO and or due to Ayers's wealthy connections. However, Ayers would have to pay by losing the life of his girlfriend, Diana Oughton. Ayers's Girlfriends blew herself while making a bomb for Ayers' group.

Ayers would move on to marry Weather Underground Co-Founder Bernadine Dohrn.
Dohrn, who ended up on the FBI's most wanted list, would only plead guilty to misdemeanor battery and serve seven months of prison time due to contempt of a grand jury.
Ayers and Dohrn's Weather Underground co-terrorists, Dave Gilbert and Linda Boudin, would not be so lucky and would face lengthy prison sentences. Boudin and Gilbert entrusted Ayers with raising their son Chesa, who would become the destructive district attorney of San Francisco.
Chesa Boudin's dangerous anti-American policies made him the first recalled district attorney in San Francisco history. Under Boudin's tenure, the financially wealthy San Francisco faced rampant violent crime and was overrun with toxic human feces. Boudin considered public defecation a "lifestyle crime," so like many criminal acts during the Boudin era, public defecation became under-enforced.
To be fair to Chesa Boudin, Bill Ayers may have just shown that he is not a good influence on kids.
Ayers posted on Facebook that he told his five-year-old grandson he needed to start a revolution this year.
Although we hope Ayers did not mean a violent revolution, his careless rhetoric feeds into his malleable left wing audience’s dangerous delusions about the 2024 election. Chesa Boudin and Ayers' grandson aside, the state paid Ayers to educate countless youth for decades.
Ayer's (re)education of thousands of young Illinoisans is significant and likely destructive.
Most infamously, Bill Ayers mentored President Obama, and it became a top 2008 campaign issue.
Ayers collects over 105,613 dollars a year in retirement from taxpayers, but the damage of his delusional teaching is likely far greater.

And if a famous terrorist like Bill Ayers can slip through the cracks, one has to wonder about Illinois hiring standards in general. After all, Illinois schools have a prolific history of mishandling sex abuse cases.
The Illinois record does try to avoid politicizing tragedies at all costs, but we can not ignore the re-occurring phenomena of political hatred turning into violence. There are so many historical examples, such as the weather above underground. For nearly a decade, Donald Trump has been made a boogeyman now by the media and Democrats to excuse their failures and project their character flaws.

Although citizens can address Democrat talking points with reason, citizens have no fair response to political violence.
The Illinois record stands against Censorship; Censorship only emboldens political hatred and violence. However, in the spirit of community goodwill and bipartisanship, the Illinois Record asks Democrats like Bill Ayers to tone down their melodramatic rhetoric, at least when talking to kids.
