On CNN, when asked to justify his massive spending on illegal migrants amid Chicago’s multiple financial crises, Mayor Brandon Johnson ignored the question and accused Trump of wanting to “eliminate Black existence from this country.” Johnson spent nearly $1 billion in tax dollars on

The CTU leaders say giving Supt. Snelling authority to declare SNAP curfews when there’s danger to young people and the public is Jim Crow? This is what they’re telling children! Outrageous! No surprise. Youth safety is not a CTU priority. Remember the CTU forced the district

Media claims a surge in police shootings as 12 shot in the first 5 months this year equals all those shot last year. Fact is, since 2020, CPD has averaged 16 shootings yearly, compared to 35 the decade prior. (See chart) Media also fails to mention that CPD are 4 TIME more likely

When City Club extended an invitation to CTU President Stacy Davis Gates to speak, one would assume she’d address the general situation at CPS. No explanation for the dismal results at CPS despite the district receiving 54% of property taxes, $1.3B in additional TIF property tax

Criticism of the Pride Parade as the source of disorder over the weekend is misplaced and wholly unfair. What Chicago witnessed over the weekend was a teen takeover in the afterhours of the Pride Parade. An insult to Chicago’s LGBT community, the parade has increasingly been

The 18 people shot in River North Drive brings to 24 the number of mass shootings this year. While the Mayor brags about murders being down the fact remains Chicago again leads the nation in murders with 201 murders, 83 children shot and 14 killed and mass shootings.

While Mayor Johnson takes personal credit for the decline in murders and shootings, the fact is Chicago until this year lagged far behind the nation and other major cities in the decline in violent crime. Ignored is the two individuals primarily responsible for the improvement.

This video perfectly captures the powerlessness of unarmed security on the CTA. When is the Mayor going to realize the CTA’s private security isn’t cutting it and for the cost of private security they could add 400 more CPD cops. The Mayor’s police officer security detail is

The attempted murder of ICE agents in Alvarado, Texas, is the latest example of how the demonization of law enforcement personnel is placing them in harms way. Nowhere is this more evident than the treatment of police in big Blue cities like Chicago. Between 2020-2024, Chicago
